Over the past few years, I’ve grown deeply interested in the process of commodification and, more specifically, what it means when anything and everything can become subject to the logic of market exchange. My work on this point to date has often been somewhat speculative, and what follows is certainly no different (but, I hope, will nonetheless be interesting).

During her recent visit to Toronto, I had a far-ranging conversation with the British economics and politics writer Grace Blakeley.
