Bittersweet to have just listened to the last episode, where they finally answer the question: “What’s left of philosophy?” @leftofphilosophy.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/5Tfc...

I thought this was a great discussion of Polanyi. In particular it has some really thoughtful discussions on the points of convergence/divergence between (left) Polanyism and Marxism in general that are thought provoking. Thanks @leftofphilosophy.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/64tK...

Great discussion of Karl Polanyi's political economy by @leftofphilosophy.bsky.social. I stumbled on his work as a struggling student back in 1999 and I am still fan although I have issues with his work in similar ways as discussed here. But he was the single reason I became interested in research.

new episode out today, on Karl Polanyi! resist commodification and put markets in their place. you have a soul, and it isn't made for exchange. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1...

episode 11! "Climate Politics and Global Justice w/ Dr. Olúfẹ́mi Táíwò". @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social joins us to talk about global justice in light of climate change, the dangers posed by climate apartheid and ecofascism in the 21st century, and the collective and collaborative forms of security

v excited to share the new @leftofphilosophy.bsky.social episode on Polanyi, given the resurgence of left-Polanyism especially among progressive political economists in recent decades. the short of it is: I like it, it certainly beats neoclassical approaches, but the framework has important limits

episode 10! "Donna Haraway: Socialist Cyborg Affinities." we talk about the cyberfeminist's work from the 80s onward, the politics of scientific knowledge production, and the ambivalence of technoscience in late capitalist society. no goddesses here, folks podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1...
