David Graeber interviewed in Berlin on 30 May 2012.

Replies to questions:

• State repression/occupy, democracy and a crumbling system
• Are social movements a threat to neo-liberalism?
• On police tactics and undercover cop Mark Kennedy

At the time of this Interview, Graebers book “Debt: The First 5000 Years” has just been translated to German and is Nr. 4 on the National Best Seller list. Three of his other books, including “Inside Occupy” have also been released in Germany this year. He held many public speaking events in Berlin on this trip, including one talk hosted by the Parliamentary leader of the Social Democratic Party, Frank-Walter Steinmeier. In his presentation, Graeber harshly critiqued Steinmeier for supporting banks in the current financial crisis, which Graeber said were the ones that created the crisis in the first place. This comment received much support from the Berlin audience at the Admiralspalast.
