Fast fashion has transformed how we consume clothing. A staggering 11.3 million tonnes of textile waste ends up in US landfills alone every year. This global fashion waste crisis has far-reaching consequences for the environment, economy and local communities. Sites which often appear like dumping grounds for unused goods can transform themselves into major sources of creativity and livelihoods. One such place is Kantamanto market in Ghana, a vibrant community and trading hub where waste is reimagined into beautiful, sustainable fashion. But Kantamanto is also a site of environmental hazards. On 2 January 2025, shortly after recording this episode, the market was hit by a devastating fire that has left over 100 shops and many livelihoods in ruins. It's the latest of several incidents, and illustrates the complex and precarious nature of daily life in Kantamanto.  This episode examines this reality in closer detail. Millions of second-hand garments are sent to Kantamanto from the West every week. Many are repaired, altered and resold by local businesses, whilst others are sent unusable, but at a cost to local traders.  Guests dissect what we can learn from Kantamanto market about how fast fashion and consumer behaviour is impacting African countries. We hear about how to create a fairer, more sustainable fashion industry, and why it's so critical the voices and realities of communities most directly impacted by fashion's waste problem are at the heart of solutions.  Guests Sara Pantuliano (host), Chief Executive, ODI GlobalMarta Foresti, Founder and CEO, LAGO & Visiting Senior Fellow, ODI GlobalEkaette (Eka) Ikpe, ODI Global Board Member & Director, African Leadership CentreYayra Agbofah, Founder and Creative Director, the RevivalRelated resourcesLAGO Collective website: https://www.lagocollective.org/The Revival website: https://www.therevival.earth/Under the tangerine sun: the creative economy in global cities: https://odi.org/en/publications/under-the-tangerine-sun-the-creative-economy-in-global-cities/ (Insight, ODI Global)Tensions and duality in developing a circular fashion economy in Kenya: https://academic.oup.com/cjres/article/17/3/577/7721557 (Paper, Cambridge Journal of Regions, Economy and Society)Fashion designers as lead firms from below: creative economy, state capitalism and internationalization in Lagos and Nairobi: https://url.uk.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/lWrXCE92zc3qnonCBCkI7tf_Q?domain=journals.sagepub.com (Paper, Sage Journals)Can art and design change the world?

Critics have long viewed translating Arabic literature into English as an ethically fraught process of mediating between two wholly incommensurable languages, cultures, and literary traditions. Today, Arabic literature is no longer “embargoed” from Anglophone cultural spaces, as Edward Said once famously claimed that it was. As Arabic literary works are translated into English in ever-greater numbers, what alternative model of translation ethics can account for this literature's newfound readability in the hegemonic language of the world literary system? Anna Ziajka Stanton's book The Worlding of Arabic Literature: Language, Affect, and the Ethics of Translatability (Fordham UP, 2023) argues that an ethical translation of a work of Arabic literature is one that transmits the literariness of the source text by engaging new populations of readers via a range of embodied and sensory effects. The book proposes that when translation is conceived of not as an exchange of semantic content but as a process of converting the affective forms of one language into those of another, previously unrecognized modalities of worldliness open up to the source text. In dialogue with a rich corpus of Arabic aesthetic and linguistic theory as well as contemporary scholarship in affect theory, translation theory, postcolonial theory, and world literature studies, this book offers a timely and provocative investigation of how an important literary tradition enters the world literary system. Anna Ziajka Stanton is Caroline D. Eckhardt Early Career Professor of Comparative Literature and Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature at the Pennsylvania State University. She has published articles in the Journal of Arabic Literature, Philological Encounters, the Journal of World Literature, the Cambridge Journal of Postcolonial Literary Inquiry, and Middle Eastern Literatures. Stanton is the translator of Hilal Chouman's Limbo Beirut, which was longlisted for the 2017 PEN Translation Prize and shortlisted for the 2017 Saif Ghobash Banipal Prize for Arabic Literary Translation. She has been an editor at the Journal of Arabic Literature since 2014. Tugrul Mende holds an M.A in Arabic Studies. He is based in Berlin as a project coordinator and independent researcher.

Der Kapitalismus ist angewiesen darauf, dass Frauen unbezahlte Reproduktionsarbeit verrichten. Die italienische Feministin und Aktivistin Mariarosa Dalla Costa hat in den 1970er-Jahren mit dieser These zum Kapitalismus für Furore und Diskussionen gesorgt. Dalla Costa argumentiert, dass die Hausarbeit, die von Frauen geleistet wird, eine wichtige Voraussetzung für die Reproduktion der Arbeitskraft und damit für die Aufrechterhaltung des Kapitalismus darstellt. Diese These impliziert zugleich eine Kritik an Marx, der sich in seinem Werk vorwiegend mit der Lohnarbeit beschäftigt hat. Historisch ist Dalla Costas Analyse zutreffend, aber stimmt diese Annahme auch per se? Ist der Kapitalismus auf die sogenannte Hausfrauisierung angewiesen? In den vergangenen Jahrzehnten hat sich die Arbeitswelt stark gewandelt, immer mehr Frauen nehmen am Erwerbsleben teil und sind immer seltener auf den „male breadwinner“ angewiesen. In der neuen Folge von „Wohlstand für Alle“ diskutieren Ole Nymoen und Wolfgang M. Schmitt die These von Dalla Costa und zeigen auf, wie der neue Geist des Kapitalismus tickt.

To say that World War II and Southeast Asia: Economy and Society under Japanese Occupation (Cambridge University Press, 2020) is an impressive achievement is a huge understatement. Based on years of research in over two dozen archives on three continents, this book won the Lindart-Williamson prize from the Economic History Association. World War II and Southeast Asia: Economy and Society under Japanese Occupation explores how Japan, as part of its plan to build an East Asian empire and secure oil supplies essential for war in the Pacific, swiftly took control of Southeast Asia. Dr. Huff describes the occupation's devastating economic impact on the region. Japan imposed country and later regional autarky on Southeast Asia, dictated that the region finance its own occupation, and sent almost no consumer goods. GDP fell by half everywhere in Southeast Asia except Thailand. Famine and forced labor accounted for most of the 4.4 million Southeast Asian civilian deaths under Japanese occupation. World War II and Southeast Asia presents a new understanding of Southeast Asian history and development before, during and after the Pacific War. Gregg is Senior Research Fellow at Pembroke College, University of Oxford. He is the author of The Economic Growth of Singapore: Trade and Development in the Twentieth Century and co-editor of and contributor to World War II Singapore: The Chōsabu Reports on Syonan-to. Gregg has large number of publications in the Journal of Economic History, Economic History Review, Economic Development and Cultural Change, Oxford Economic Papers, Cambridge Journal of Economics, World Development, Modern Asian Studies and Journal of Southeast Asian Studies. Michael G. Vann is a professor of world history at California State University, Sacramento. A specialist in imperialism and the Cold War in Southeast Asia, he is the author of The Great Hanoi Rat Hunt: Empires, Disease, and Modernity in French Colonial Vietnam (Oxford University Press, 2018).

Amy Glasmeier is professor of Economic Geography and Regional Planning. She runs LRISA, the lab on Regional Innovation and Spatial Analysis, in DUSP. Glasmeier is also a Founding Editor of the Cambridge Journal of Regions, Economy and Society, a journal which publishes multi-disciplinary international research on the spatial dimensions of contemporary socio-economic-political change. Glasmeier's research focuses economic opportunities for communities and individuals through the investigation of the role of geographic access and the effect of locational accident on human development. She won a 2018 grant from the National Science Foundation for her Collaborative Research on Understanding the benefits and mitigating the risks of interdependence in critical infrastructure systems. Recent awards include the  Fellow award from American Association of Geographers (December 2017) and the MIT Office of the Dean for Graduate Education Receipt of the Award from the “Committed to Caring” campaign (2017).She is writing a textbook on the Geography of the Global Energy Economy. Her other project, "Good Bye American Dream" traces the ideology of opportunity that undergirds America's relationship to the poor. Through analysis of census data, popular media, and personal narratives, Glasmeier is exploring the contradictions in the most sacred of constructs by demonstrating the ephemeral nature of economic opportunity encumbered by locational accident, institutional inertia, and the unintended consequences of public policy. The work builds off of her long running Living Wage Calculator, which analyzes the minimum level of income required for individuals and families to pay for basic living expenses. Recent press includes an interview on MIT Spectrum.Glasmeier holds a professional Masters and PhD in Regional from UC Berkeley and currently serves as Associate Planning Board Member in the Town of Cohasset.

Economia Underground: Um podcast institucionalista Neste episódio, discutimos os escritos do famoso institucionalista britânico Geoffrey Hodgson. Afirmar que qualquer pessoa com familiaridade com Economia Institucional já esbarrou com texto do Hodgson, não é uma afirmação forte. Além de produzir quantidades gigantescas de artigos científicos e livros, Hodgson introduz uma apresentação contemporânea ao institucionalismo. No entanto, tal apresentação não é livre de controvérsias. Nesse episódio, discutimos a importância dos escritos do Hodgson e os motivos pelas quais eles são controversos. Divirtam-se!

Rod Reuven Dovid Bryen and Jerry Gordon bring back Dan Diker, Senior Fellow and Director of the Program to Counter Political Warfare at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs (JCPA). Diker authored a recent JCPA brief, “The Alignment of BDS and Black Lives Matter: Implications for Israel and Diaspora Jewry”. Diker also appeared on a recent Jewish Broadcasting Service discussion program moderated by Rabbi Marc Golub with Joshua Washington, the young American Assistant Director of the Institute for Black Solidarity for Israel that promotes the pro-Zionist legacy of the late revered American civil rights leaders, Dr. Martin Luther King and Rev. Ralph Abernathy. American Jews, as Diker notes, had fought for Black civil rights as abolitionists in the 19th Century and the 1960’s culminating in the historic passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act under President Johnson. American Jews have actively and publicly opposed racism and police brutality. Diker’s JCPA brief exposed the disturbing trends converging between BLM and BDS that he suggests had its origins in the 2014 Iranian regime backed Hamas rocket and terror tunnel war against Israel. The rise of BLM was triggered by the killings of Black young men Trayvon Martin in Florida in 2012 and Michael Brown in 2014 in Ferguson. Missouri. Recently, the BLM campaign was “turbo-charged” by the murder on May 25, 2020 of George Floyd while in the custody of a Minneapolis Police Officer sparking daily protests and violence that quickly spread across the US. The Movement for Black Lives (MBL) A BLM Network member organization, has openly accused Israel of being a racist Apartheid state. It connected Israel’s “occupation” in Gaza and the Palestinian Authority meme that the Jewish nation was “born in sin” with US state racism, imperialism, and fascism. Minister Louis Farrakhan, a spiritual guide and role model for BLM activists and sympathizers, has labeled Jews “Satan”. MBL’s radical solution is to “take down” the US government, while defunding and dismantling police departments across the United States. Diker noted the launch of a petition by University of California Students accusing Israel of “complicity’ in the murder of George Floyd due to US law enforcement agencies’ participation in a 2012 program in Israel on counterterrorism intelligence sharing. Diker suggests that these accusations are completely unfounded. Moreover, BDS and Palestinian activist rhetoric accusing Israel of imperialism and colonialism is straight out of the Marxist-Leninist playbook. In fact, Israel is a result of Zionist de-colonialization, resettling the Jewish homeland after the fall of the 400-year Ottoman empire. He pointed to a recent article in the Cambridge Journal of Race Ethnicity of Politics, “What Kind of Movement is Black Lives Matter? The view from twitter”. Diker commented: This superb research on BLM reveals that the movement rejects the “politics of respectability” of Martin Luther King and the Civil Rights Movement”. This is dangerous for the Palestinian issue as it rejects inclusion, and instead advocates a political replacement theology. Diker endorsed the work of Joshua Washington of the Institute for Black Solidarity for Israel, the son of Pastor Dumasani Washington, a California pastor, and a leading figure in the organization Christians United for Israel. Washington is also a next generation acolyte of Dr. King, a proud supporter of Israel and Zionism until his tragic assassination in 1968. Beyond the Matrix 05AUG2020 - PODCAST

The colonization of China was a long campaign involving the exploitation of the Chinese economy by the western powers, but mainly of Britain, France, and the U.S. Before this, China was at the center of the world economy throughout the 1700s due to their widely sought exports of porcelain, silk, and tea, all under the era of the Qing dynasty. However, the Qing Dynasty faced many issues and by the end of the 1700s, China was experiencing strains: a quickly growing population, a difficulty of food supply for this population, and a subsequent lack of centralized government control; all of which led to rebellions and a weakening of the dynasty's power throughout their country.

Har du nogensinde tænkt over, hvad økonomi er for en videnskab? Hvordan opstod den, og hvem var dens grundlæggere? Eller har du interesseret dig for moderne diskussioner om samfundet, herunder ulighed, ressourceforbrug eller konkurrence? Hvis dette er tilfældet, er økonomiens teorihistorie vigtig og nyttig for dig. Den type af diskussioner er nemlig mindst lige så gammel som den økonomiske videnskab selv, og du vil i dens rødder også finde rødderne til de moderne argumenter.   I dagens afsnit starter jeg med en lille omvej. I den fortæller jeg lidt om, hvad der menes med skoler indenfor økonomisk tænkning.  Herefter skal vi til et af de øjeblikke, som videnskabshistorikere finder ekstra spændende. Nemlig et teoretisk undfangelsesøjeblik. Et tidspunkt hvor en stor og varig indsigt om verden gøres. En indsigt som har enorme intellektuelle konsekvenser. I dette tilfælde; marginalnytte revolutionen.  Marginalnytte revolutionen handler om, at selvom noget koster det samme, så er værdien ikke ens. Er jeg tørstig, har det stor værdi for mig at slukke min tørst, og jeg køber måske en flaske vand. Men når jeg først har fået slukket tørsten, så er en flaske med samme tørstslukkende indhold pludselig ikke meget værd for mig. Det er marginal nytte og subjektiv værdilære. Det der er særligt spændende ved denne indsigt er, at den gøres samtidigt, men uafhængigt af tre forskellige økonomer, og dem vil jeg fortælle dig om. Jeg vil fortælle dig om Carl Menger som grundlægger den østrigske skole og dens berømte Methodenstreit.Franskmanden Léon Walras som inspirerer til velfærdsøkonomi og William Stanley Jevons der ligeledes bliver instrumental i, hvad der i dag kendes som mikroøkonomi. Til dagens afsnit har jeg læst:  Blaug, M. (1972). Was There a 'Marginal Revolution'? History of Political Economy, 269-280. Boettke, P. J. (2012). Living Economics: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow. Oakland: The Independent Institute. Caldwell, B. (2004). Hayek's Challenge: An Intellectual Biography of F. A.

In 1927, Henry Ford decided to build a plantation in the Amazon to supply rubber for his auto company. The result was Fordlandia, an incongruous Midwestern-style town in the tropical rainforest. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll describe the checkered history of Ford's curious project -- and what it revealed about his vision of society. We'll also consider some lifesaving seagulls and puzzle over a false alarm. Intro: In 1891, the Strand tried to notate the songs of English birds.

African literature is changing' - Brittle Paper Brittle Paper is your go-to site for African writing and literary culture. Brittle Paper brings you all the latest news and juicy updates on publications, authors, events, prizes, and lifestyle. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram (@brittlepaper) and sign up for our "I love African Literature" newsletter. Brittle Paper states that ‘the current generation of African readers are driven more by their tastes and passions than by allegiance to some abstract political idea. They are young, open, and unconventional in their interests. They are social media savvy and dependent on mobile technology for media consumption. This has led to the popularity of shorter writings—flash fiction, online story series, and digital imprints of mass-market novellas. The obsession with realist fiction that defined older generations has given way to an avid interest in speculative writing—fantasy, science fiction— but also in experimental narratives, pulp-fiction, and other offbeat genres.' And as a result, Brittle Paper became a literary project designed to adapt African literary culture that is dynamic and adaptable. Dr Ainehi Edoro-Glines is the founder and Editor of Brittle Paper, a leading online platform dedicated to African writing and literary culture. She is an Assistant Professor of English at the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she teaches and researches on African literature, political theory, and literature in social media. She was named by OkayAfrica as one of its top women in African literature 2018. While in the stunning Madison, Dr Alma-Nalisha Cele connected with Dr Edoro-Glines and discussed her life goals of bringing African literature to the front and what it means to build our own platforms for critical engagement with African literature. Of course, the discussion would've been incomplete without delving into “that” essay. Her current book project is titled “Forest Imaginaries: How African Novels Think.” She also writes essays and commentaries about contemporary African literary culture in mainstream publications such as The Guardian and Africa is a Country. Dr Edoro-Glines is profoundly influenced by the literary icon, Chinua Achebe. Her life goal has been to bring African literature to the forefront, and more specifically to bring a fresh perspective to the study of the late Nigerian novelist's work. Her article on Things Fall Apart is forthcoming in The Cambridge Journal of Postcolonial Literary Enquiry.

Full study can be found here: http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=10324963&fulltextType=RA&fileId=S1368980016001105 Centre for Health and Diet Research: http://hrbchdr.com/ With an estimated 1 in 10 people in Ireland that have suffered from depression, it has been suggested that certain protective lifestyle behaviours such as having a healthy diet, being physically active, having a moderate alcohol intake and being a non-smoker, may be linked to positive mental health. Gillian Maher, UCC public health researcher, analysed data from over 2,000 people aged between 50 and 67 from North Cork as part of the Mitchelstown Cohort Study and found that people with more protective lifestyle behaviours (PLBs) had lower odds of having depressive symptoms. The cross-sectional study used the following PLBs: being a non-smoker, moderate alcohol consumption, being physically active and eating an adequate diet of fruit and vegetables. The study, published in the prestigious Cambridge Journal of Public Health Nutrition, found that overall 8% of people in the sample engaged in one protective lifestyle behaviour, 24% in two, 39% in three and just over 28% of all sampled engaged in four PLBs. The low numbers of people practising all four protective behaviours highlights the need for continued emphasis on encouraging and empowering people to make positive lifestyle behaviour choices. Applying this research into our daily behaviours around health and wellbeing, Ms Gillian Maher stresses that “it is not an all or nothing approach” and that “one is better than none, two is better than one etc” making the strong case that we should all engage in PLB as best as we can as any engagement is positive news for your mental health, and adds to our overall health. Key Findings: The odds of having depressive symptoms for those who engage in one or less PLBs, are over twice as high as those who engage in four PLBs, even after adjusting for age, gender, education and BMI. Only 28% of this population (50–69-year-olds) engage in four PLB. Those who engaged in all four PLB were more likely to be female, have a higher level of education, and were categorised as having no depressive symptoms. The sample was randomly selected from the Livinghealth Clinic in Mitchelstown with a catchment area of over 20,000 people. The cohort study was originally the Cork and Kerry Diabetes and Heart Disease Study which began in 1998. The main aim of the study was to estimate the prevalence of major risk factors in a middle-aged population in Ireland and to estimate the number of people at high risk of heart disease. Phase II of the Cork and Kerry Diabetes and Heart Disease Study began in 2008, with support from the Health Research Board Centre for Health and Diet Research. Since beginning, it has produced over 25 publications on topics that range from diabetes to cardiovascular disease and from disability to macrocytosis (or the measure of average volume of red blood cells). Ms. Maher’s study adds an additional dynamic of mental health to the knowledge generated from this study. Many thanks go out to all those involved in the study, in particular the people of Mitchelstown and beyond who contributed selflessly to the richness of the ongoing study, and to the staff at the Livinghealth Clinic.
