Otroligt många som just nu läser denna insatta analys av @jonasalgers.bsky.social:

Pat Brodie and I have a book coming out in October. Really hoping it can be useful for analysing the imperialist political ecology of big tech and the energy transition. Big thanks to @kaiheron.bsky.social, @triofrancos.bsky.social, Anne Pasek (and others) for their generous words and engagement.

Jag älskar den bilburna friheten kring värmländska Årjäng – men utsläppen växer för varje motorvarv. I stället för att fylla despoternas fickor borde vi investera i ett grönt Sverige, skriver Jonas Algers @jonasalgers.bsky.social. www.flamman.se/varfor-vill-...

Now online: 'Geert Reuten: A Fond Recollection' by Marcel van der Linden.

Socialists must plan for the next economic crisis *before* it happen. Otherwise, the ruling class will use it – again – to suppress workers and further destroy nature. This essay – first of two parts – in @journalspectre.bsky.social offers socialist reflections on the coming crisis.

Jeremy Kessler's 'The Problem of Authoritarianism in Marxist Legal Thought' presents a series of vignettes which capture five moments of Marxist encounters with authoritarianism: 1. Marx & Engels 2. Lenin & Luxemburg 3. Pashukanis & Stuchka 4. Neumann & Bloch 5. Poulantzas & the Neue Marx-Lektüre

Great article by Jon Las Heras, developing the work of Juan Iñigo Carrera, Guido Starosta and colleagues into an emphatic critique of the most widespread and ostensibly radical forms of "positivist" Marxism 🔥 www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1...

Less than five years ago, in the NLR, Mike Davis explained how and why Latinos in South Texas voted for Trump in such large numbers. Now, Mélenchon is pushing the idea that California is going to secede because "Spanish is spoken everywhere" and "this part of the population is mostly Catholic" 😑

What could a world after capitalism look like? This two-part article in the @NewLeftReview is the result of five years of research. I’ll be turning it into a book later this year, so I’d love to hear your comments and critiques. newleftreview.org/issues/ii153...

Great article by Gastón Caligaris, Alejandro Fitzsimons, and Guido Starosta in "Science & Society" on the determination of Socially Necessary Labor Time (SNLT), spelling out their own position vis-à-vis a major recent debate in the critique of political economy journals.sagepub.com/doi/epdf/10....

Today I'm leaving for Germany for a few events - the first 2 in Berlin on May 31 at the "Marx is' Muss" festival. Then one in Leipzig at a workshop June 2 (thanks to Julia Kaiser & @ueberdruss.bsky.social !), then back to Berlin June 4 (thanks @cominsitu.bsky.social !) See pics for details.

Truly excellent article on the rise of BYD and its global expansion by Paolo Gerbaudo. "Today BYD counts five different plants in Shenzhen, some of them clustered around “BYD Road” in the Pinghsan district. More than 500,000 cars— BYD Tang, Qin, and Dolphin models—are assembled here every year."

Ok this looks amazing. A lot of overlap with concepts in my book (proletarian ecology, species solidarity), and I’m working on a new paper that talks about the “planetary mode of production.”https://brill.com/display/title/72856

👀 look out - this is sure to be one of the best books of the decade! There are few people in the English-speaking world who write as well as Phil, and even fewer people with such a deep understanding of the permanent restructuring of global production.

Great news, BlueSky peeps. @williamwc.bsky.social has entered the chat! Do give a follow if you are interested in the nexus of labour, renewable energy and political economy

This looks quite fascinating (and I agree w/ much in the thread!) Wish I could have assigned in my Political Economy of Nature seminar that finished up last Fall. Will try and read soon!

I'm late to the party, but I've come with a gift! Environment and Planning A recently published one of the articles from my recent dissertation, "Competition, capital accumulation, and the geographical organization of production in the North Atlantic offshore wind energy industry."
