Mimetic need, scapegoating: for those who’ve been listening to these phrases
thrown round currently, it is as a result of the French Catholic thinker
René Girard (1923-2015) is having a renaissance, with highly effective
folks like J.D. Vance and Peter Thiel citing his affect on
their thought. Trevor Cribben Merrill, producer of the brand new
documentary Issues Hidden: The Life and Legacy of René
Girard, joins the podcast to debate Girard’s principal concepts,
and mirror on points of his thought which appear tough to
reconcile with Catholic doctrine.
