\"\"Latin waves host Sylvia Richardson speaks with Robert Jensen about our \u201cdead culture\u201d of state Fundamentalism.<\/p>\n

Jensen says that absolute beliefs that ignore life\u2019s complexities are used to support the politics of empire. He gives examples of these, including market fundamentalism (capitalism), moral fundamentalism (of spreading \u2018democracy\u2019), or technological fundamentalism \u2013 the belief that technology will solve the environmental problems it causes.<\/p>\n
