This is a re-broadcast of Class Unity Transmissions Ep 19: Clyde W. Barrow | Marxist State Theory Today In this episode, we are joined by political theorist Clyde W. Barrow to revisit the classic debates in Marxist state theory and to consider their renewed relevance in the present conjuncture. Barrow was a guest speaker in the CU “State Theory” course that ran earlier this year, and we thought we'd invite him back for a more detailed discussion—and to explore how these debates might help guide the left through its current impasse. The conversation begins with the Poulantzas–Miliband debate of the 1960s and 1970s, situating it against the crisis of postwar Fordist–Keynesian capitalism and the broader effort by Marxists to move beyond instrumental or reductionist accounts of the capitalist state. Barrow explains why the debate remains foundational, what is often misunderstood about Miliband's position, and why Marxist politics cannot afford to treat the state as a secondary or merely epiphenomenal problem. From there, the discussion turns to globalization and contemporary political economy, drawing on Barrow's book Toward a Critical Theory of States: The Poulantzas–Miliband Debate after Globalization. Rejecting the idea that globalization has rendered states powerless, Barrow emphasizes the central role played by states—particularly the U.S. state—in constructing and managing global capitalism. We then examine how Marxist state theory helps illuminate recent developments in trade policy under the Trump administration, including the structural constraints that capitalist states face when they pursue policies that run counter to dominant class interests, and what this may signal about the future of the global trade regime. The latter part of the episode moves a bit more “into the weeds,” engaging debates over Lenin, the dictatorship of the proletariat, and the long-standing question of what a socialist theory of government might look like. Barrow reflects on the limits of romanticized models such as the Paris Commune, the enduring tensions between democracy and state power in socialist strategy, and the usefulness of Poulantzas's concept of authoritarian statism for understanding contemporary right-wing governments. The conversation concludes with a discussion of what Marxist state theory can tell us about the challenges facing democratic socialist governance today, using the case of New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani to explore the structural and political limits confronting left projects within capitalist states. Biographical note: In recent months, Barrow has also been a prominent public critic of managerial governance and political interference in higher education and has faced disciplinary action related to his speech and public commentary. While this episode focuses on theory rather than biography, his situation has made him an important contemporary reference point in ongoing debates over academic freedom and freedom of expression in U.S. universities. Additional background: Clyde W. Barrow earned his Ph.D. in political science from the University of California, Los Angeles. He is currently Professor of Political Science at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, and previously taught for many years at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. Barrow is widely known for his contributions to Marxist state theory, political sociology, and the political economy of higher education. His major books include Universities and the Capitalist State: Corporate Liberalism and the Reconstruction of American Higher Education, 1894–1928; Toward a Critical Theory of States: The Poulantzas–Miliband Debate after Globalization; The Dangerous Class: The Concept of the Lumpenproletariat; and A Critique of Political Science: A History of the Caucus for a New Political Science (forthcoming), along with numerous influential articles on state power, class relations, and academic governance.

U.S. Rep. Shomari C. Figures (D-Ala.) has been named a cochair of the newly formed bipartisan Congressional Trucking Caucus, a first-of-its-kind group aimed at addressing issues facing the nation's trucking industry. Figures will help lead the caucus alongside Reps. Dave Taylor (R-Ohio), Harriet Hageman (R-Wyo.,), Pat Harrigan (R-N.C.), Doug LaMalfa (R-Calif.) and Mary Miller (R-Ill.).

What you need to remember is that all this was happening in the mid-to-late nineties. This was pre-internet, pre-email. The bunch of us were communicating via faxes, Fed Ex, and phone calls, neither of which were very secure. And when editor Bob Budiansky discovered that DC had somehow intercepted a series of vital X-Men communiques down the hall, he insisted we develop a multilayered code to talk with one another. That's when Tom went off and created the unbreakable Clone Code. Some of us still speak it today. 

Spider-Man Clone Caucus pt 1 Many have written of what went on in those meetings, of the hushed plans formulated behind those closed conference room doors. Speculation, all of it. A patchwork legend sewn from snippets of overheard conversations, misinterpreted mutterings, and muted tirades heard through thick skyscraper walls. But never from the writers who were actually there, doing the work, bleeding the blood, crying the tears. Until now.    * There is a 'ding' sound on Terry's channel. Have no idea why. Maybe he was baking potatoes? Also, Howard Mackie is the one who sounds like RFK Jr. 

Two Conservative MPs defected to the Liberals and a third announced his resignation in the months leading up to Pierre Poilievre's leadership review in January.

But interim NDP Leader Don Davies tells host David Cochrane that 'if I were Mr. Poilievre, I'd be deeply concerned.'

Minnesota Gun Owners Law Center head Rob Doar joins Cam to talk about the ongoing efforts by more than a dozen cities in the state to adopt local gun bans in violation of the state's firearm preemption law; efforts that are now largely on hold after the Law Center and MN Gun Owners Caucus sued St. Paul over its new ordinance.

Josh Hammer opens the show by tearing into the media circus surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein files, exposing how the story has become more about political theater than truth. He explains why endless speculation and conspiracy chasing are distractions from real accountability — and why the obsession with Epstein says more about the media and public appetite for outrage than it does about justice.Josh also dives into President Trump’s latest comments on tariff rollbacks, breaking down which moves make sense and which could backfire on American workers. He then calls out the weekend’s media hit piece targeting him and other conservative hosts, pulling no punches on the website's smear tactics. Finally, Josh weighs in on Trump’s split with Marjorie Taylor Greene — and why his follow-up comments regarding Tucker Carlson lost sight of the bigger issue we are facing.

John Darkow - PoliticalCartoons.com On this week's show... The federal government shutdown is over for now, but the debate on healthcare rages on. Michigan Democrats, led by Senators Peters and Slotkin, have harsh words for the 7 Democrats who voted with Republicans to end the 41-day shutdown without any guaranteed continuation of healthcare insurance subsidies. The Republican bill includes a potential onetime $500,000 or more bonus for 8 Senators investigated as part of the January 6 insurrection (Lindsey Graham says he'll sue for millions!) The White House calls the newly released Epstein emails part of a Democratic Party hoax – that there's nothing there – but Trump is doing all he can to keep the files secret, and redirect the story to investigations of retirees like Bill Clinton and Larry Summers. The U.S. House will vote on a full release of all the files in early December. Donald Trump basically admits widespread law-breaking by his reelection team, issuing federal pardons to 71 of his minions – even though they haven't been federally charged. And the pardons don't save folks like Giuliani and Meadows from possible state criminal charges. The looming increases in health insurance premiums has convinced four companies to pull out of the Michigan market.  Former Congressman Mike Rogers thought he had a free ride to the GOP nomination for U.S. Senator, but there's a new candidate who could make the next 9 months a lot more difficult for him. Former Michigan Republican Party co-chair Bernadette Smith starts with more than a little support from the party's MAGA base.  Rogers is now saying the 2024 election was stolen from him but providing no proof.  And there's the story of two presidential grandkids extending family traditions: JFK's grandson, Jack Schlossberg, extends the family tradition by running for Congress in New York … in a district that includes Trump Tower. Donald Trump's granddaughter, Kai, is extending a different family tradition: she's playing golf, making her LPGA debut as an invited golfer in the LPGA Annika Tournament. Sadly, after the 2nd round she was dead last (18 over par) and missed the cut

Bombshell emails released just moments before we started streaming this episode suggest Donald Trump hasn't exactly been truthful about his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and his knowledge of what was going on. Jespo and Johnny open the show with what the emails (released by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee) imply, and what remains to be seen.  THIS EPISODE IS PRESENTED BY RAPIDEX FINANCIAL: https://rapidexfinancial.com/ 33:45 | Sounds like Pierre Poilievre isn't the only federal party leader staring down a caucus revolt.

From striped bass policy to black bear hunting, Fred Bird breaks down this week's biggest wins for America's sportsmen. New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte officially joins the Governor's Sportsmen's Caucus, continuing the state's long tradition of leadership in defending hunting and angling heritage.

Lake Forest just had its annual Caucus vote.671 ballots cast — 427 Yes (64%) for remote voting — 244 No.The amendment failed by 21 votes because bylaws demand a two-thirds majority.That means most residents want expanded voting access — yet turnout was under 5% of the city.When civic silence beats civic engagement, Lake Forest starts looking less like a self-governing town and more like Highland Park — where procedure and partisanship replaced participation.Results:Amendment: 427 Yes / 244 No (needed 448 to pass)Ward 1 – Nancy Novit 473 Yes / 61 NoWard 2 – Rosemary Kehr 454 Yes / 55 NoWard 3 – Alice LeVert 503 Yes / 67 NoWard 4 – Lloyd Culbertson 485 Yes / 65 NoNext step: Caucus petitions filed Oct 27 for the March 17 2026 ballot.#LakeForestPodcast #LakeForest #CaucusVote #RemoteVoting #HighlandPark #CivicEngagement
