Takis Fotopoulos

Greek political philosopher, economist and writer

Takis Fotopoulos is remembered for arguments the next generation could not ignore.

The record lists Takis Fotopoulos as Greek political philosopher, economist and writer.

Takis Fotopoulos was born at Chios in 1940. His recorded nationality is United Kingdom. He studied at London School of Economics and Political Science and National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.

Twentieth-century philosophy was marked by war, exile and ideology; many of its central figures wrote in flight or under censorship.

His academic posts were held at University of North London.

His principal work is Towards an Inclusive Democracy: The Crisis of the Growth Economy and the Need for a New Liberatory Project. A philosophical position survives not by being proved but by resisting every attempt to dispose of it.

That the work was done from United Kingdom matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
