Behind every psychiatric label lies a question: Is this person mentally ill, or just misunderstood by medicine? When Dr. Kaycee Bills, a social work professor with a PhD, experienced a medical emergency from low blood pressure, she was handcuffed, sedated, and locked in a psychiatric ward instead of receiving proper care. Her crime? Being a woman whose scattered Adderall pills looked "suspicious" to authorities. This shocking personal account reveals how women are systematically disbelieved by the medical establishment—diagnosed with depression and anxiety at twice the rate of men, while serious physical conditions go untreated for years. Join Dr. Roger McFillin and Dr. Bills as they expose the dark underbelly of psychiatric holds, forced medication, and how the mental health system often traumatizes those it claims to help.

Year 2008 marked the introduction of a new economic governance regime in the European Union (EU) in response to the global financial crisis. Politicising Commodification: European Governance and Labour Politics from the Financial Crisis to the Covid Emergency (Cambridge UP, 2024), authored by leading scholars in the field and also available open access, uses a approach to capture the EU formulation of prescriptions and their uneven deployment across member states (Germany, Italy, Ireland, Romania), policy areas (employment relations, public services), and sectors (transport, water, and healthcare). The regime led to a much more vertical mode of EU integration, and its commodification agenda unleashed a plethora of union and social-movement protests, including transnationally.

(PUBLICATION BAN IN CASE) Following their trial, the appellants, Mikhail Kloubakov and Hicham Moustaine, were convicted of obtaining a material benefit from sexual services (s. 286.2(1) of the Criminal Code) and of procuring, as parties (s. 286.3(1) of the Criminal Code). However, after entering the convictions, the trial judge determined that the provisions in question were overbroad and that they deprived certain sex workers of the right to security without being in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice, thereby infringing s. 7 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. She held that the infringements were not justified under s. 1 of the Charter, and she accordingly declared ss. 286.2(1), (4) and (5) and 286.3(1) unconstitutional and suspended the declaration of invalidity for 30 days. She entered a stay of proceedings as a remedy. The Alberta Court of Appeal allowed the appeal, set aside the declarations of invalidity concerning ss. 286.2 and 286.3 and the stay of proceedings, and entered convictions against Mr. Kloubakov and Mr. Moustaine. It referred the matter back to the Court of King's Bench for sentencing. In its view, the impugned provisions did not infringe s. 7, and a s. 1 analysis was therefore unnecessary. Argued Date 2024-11-12 Keywords Constitutional law — Charter of Rights — Right to security of person — Criminal law — Commodification of sexual activities — Accused challenging constitutionality of Criminal Code provisions concerning offence of obtaining material benefit from sexual services and offence of procuring — Whether Court of Appeal erred in determining purpose of legislation and of relevant provisions — Whether Court of Appeal erred in finding that provisions were not overbroad in relation to their purpose, contrary to s. 7 of Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms — Whether it is possible to displace presumption that purposes articulated by Parliament are valid — If it is possible, whether presumption is displaced in this case — Whether ss. 286.2(1), (4) and (5) and 286.3(1) of Criminal Code infringe rights guaranteed in s. 7 of Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms — If so, whether these infringements can be justified under s. 1 of Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms — If infringements are not justified under s. 1, what remedies are most appropriate in this case — Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, ss. 1, 7 — Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46, ss. 286.2, 286.3.

Author Ellie Yang Camp and I first crossed paths 24 years ago at a triennial Christian conference for college students. I was the main speaker that week and she was a student leader of her InterVarsity chapter @ Cal. We never met that week, but when her debut book Louder Than the Lies crossed my desk and I read her bio and then saw what she had to say about the insidious and pervasive problems of white supremacy and whiteness, and how they continue to oppress and brainwash many of us Asian Americans, I immediagtely knew I had to bring her on my show. And with Trump having been re-elected to the White House, Ellie's book should be required reading. You can find her on social media @eeewhysee and you can find her book anywhere great books are sold. #whiteness #whitesupremacy #aanhpi #defeatingracism

Discover the hidden spiritual lessons in holiday tales—from Rudolph to the Yule Goat! --- Join and support the community: https://www.creationspaths.com/ This podcast episode explores the profound spiritual and cultural significance of holiday stories, particularly Christmas and Yule traditions. Charlie and Brian delve into the universal archetypes found in these narratives, such as the "child of light," miraculous births, and outcasts who prove their worth. They discuss classic tales like _Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer_, _A Charlie Brown Christmas_, and _Frosty the Snowman_, emphasizing themes of community, resilience, and personal growth. Modern stories like _Die Hard_ and _The Grinch_ are also examined for their deeper spiritual lessons, including the fight against toxic masculinity and the transformative power of redemption. The duo highlights how traditions, whether global or personal, emerge organically and foster a sense of belonging. They touch on Scandinavian Yule traditions like the Yule Goat and explore how contemporary stories continue to evolve, reflecting the challenges and needs of their time. The conversation underscores that storytelling is not only an art but a form of spiritual practice that shapes individuals and communities, helping them navigate life's challenges.

Laundering Black Rage: The Washing of Black Death, People, Property, and Profits (Routledge, 2024) examines the dilution and commodification of Black Rage--conceived as a constructive response to the conquest of resources, land, and human beings--in a spatial and historical critique of the capitalist State. Interweaving academic criticism with journalistic essays, it presents a thoughtful challenge to popular narratives surrounding recent US events such as the Black Lives Matter movement, the death of George Floyd and other police killings, and cases of White vigilantism, arguing that the maintenance of capitalism increasingly requires the manufactured consent of the conquered. Essayist/performer Too Black and geographer Rasul A. Mowatt assert Black Rage as a threat to the flow of capital, which must therefore be conquered by laundering, defined as a process of: - Incubation via the State, which places rage in circulation by setting both the oppressive conditions for its expression and seeding contradictions for it to be cleaned. - Labour, which sets mass uprisings in motion, layers the narcissistic rage of the Black elite over the illegal, militant rage of the masses to conceal class interests and collapse labour into capital. - Commodification, in which the now-laundered Black Rage is integrated within the State, ready to be withdrawn as a labour-crushed commodity to be bought, sold, or repressed by White capital. Entwining histories of Black resistance throughout the diaspora, State building under capitalism, cities as sites of laundering, and the world making of empire, Laundering Black Rage also lays the groundwork for upending the process through an anti-colonial struggle of reverse-laundering conquest. Relevant to studies of race and culture, history, politics, and the built environment, this pathbreaking work is essential reading for scholars and activists engaged at the intersection of critiquing capitalism and combating systemic racism"-- Too Black is a low-wage worker, poet, organizer, and filmmaker. As a poet, Too Black has headlined the historic Nuyorican Poets Café, Princeton University, and Johannesburg Theater in South Africa. His words have appeared in publications such as Black Agenda Report, Left Voice, Indianapolis Recorder, and Hood Communist. He is also the co-director of the award-winning documentary The Pendleton 2: They Stood Up. Rasul A. Mowatt is a son of Chicago and a subject of empire, while dwelling within notions of statelessness, settler colonial mentality, and anti-capitalism.

I'm thrilled today to welcome new friend, Albertina Antognini and old (by which I mean long-time) friend, Susan Appleton. Albertina Antognini is the James E. Rogers Professor of Law at the University of Arizona where she teaches Family Law, Property, Trusts & Estates, and a seminar surveying different legal regimes that shape the contemporary American family. Professor Antognini's work examines the ways that legal rules actively regulate, and in the process define, families. Her research is centrally preoccupied with considering how categories that may appear “natural” are in fact products of law, with the aim of opening them up to a more rigorous critique.Susan Appleton is the Lemma Barkeloo & Phoebe Couzins Professor of Law at Washington University School of Law. She is a nationally known expert in family law and feminist legal theory. Her research, scholarship, and teaching address reproductive justice, parentage, gender, sexualities, and public assistance for families. They join us today to discuss their recent article, Sexual Agreements, published in the Wash. U. Law Review. UVA Law 3L, Laura Habib, co-hosts this episode.

Finding Empowerment through Sex Work as a Korean Adoptee with Kayla Tange "I can be in my body, and in that moment, I feel safe." -- Kayla Tange   EPISODE SUMMARY: In this episode of Unraveling Adoption, I had the privilege of speaking with Kayla Tange, a Korean adoptee raised by Japanese-American parents. She has navigated a unique and complex journey through life as an exotic dancer, performance artist, and sex worker. Kayla shared her adoption story, detailing her early life in an orphanage in Seoul before being adopted at six months old. We explored how her experiences with ADHD and autism influenced her career choices and her desire for connection. Kayla candidly discussed her entry into the world of sex work, revealing how it provided her with a sense of empowerment and control over her body—something she felt was taken from her during her adoption. Throughout our conversation, we touched on the themes of identity, belonging, and the emotional complexities that come with being an adoptee. Kayla's reflections on her work and the connections she forms with clients highlighted the often misunderstood aspects of sex work, challenging stereotypes and emphasizing the agency she feels in her choices. Kayla also read a powerful piece from her contribution to the anthology Whorephobia, which delves into her experiences and emotions surrounding her adoption and her work. Her insights offered a profound understanding of the intersections between adoption, identity, and the search for belonging. This episode is a deep dive into the complexities of adoption and the ways in which individuals navigate their identities and experiences. I encourage listeners to reflect on Kayla's story and the broader implications it has for understanding adoption and the diverse paths that adoptees may take. ===============

In this conversation at the Review of Democracy, George Paul Meiu clarifies his concept of ethno-erotic economy and the commodification of ethnic sexuality; reflects on the role of objects in shaping political representations; discusses belonging and citizenship as well as mobility, memory, and materiality – and shares his insights concerning possible interpretations of the Greek God Dionysus episode at the Opening Ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games. Adrian Matus: You have done extensive research on East Africa, particularly Kenya. As a result, you published “Ethno-erotic Economies: Sexuality, Money, and Belonging in Kenya”[i], where you propose the concept of ethno-erotic economies to grasp what is going on in the tourist resorts of the country. Could you tell me a bit about your main findings concerning the Samburu ethnic sexuality and what they may tell us about belonging in today's postcolonial world more generally? George Paul Meiu: My project in ethno-erotic economy started in a very specific place in Kenya. Since the 1980s, young Samburu men from Northern Kenya have begun migrating seasonally to the coast of the Indian Ocean, where they sold souvenirs and danced for tourists, but also increasingly started developing relationships with women from Western Europe. By the time I started doing research in 2005, in Northern Kenya–where these men come from–some of the richest men in the area were in relationships with white women. For me, this raised all kinds of questions. How do you commodify ethnicity and sexuality in order to produce a certain kind of future at home? What does it mean for an indigenous population like the Samburu, who have been marginalized and peripheralized by both the colonial and independent states, to now seek a certain kind of economic emancipation by commodifying colonial stereotypes of themselves and of their sexuality? Increasingly, what I started seeing is that this is actually very little about sexuality, as such. This is not about what people do sexually. This is about all kinds of imaginaries that one brings in terms of tourist commodification, consumption and so on. What was really interesting for me was how these things reverberate beyond tourism. I ended up going back to some of these men's villages where I did the heavy part of my research and saw how the money that they brought home gave rise to all kinds of gossip and debates over what it means to make money through sex and feed your children and parents with it. All of these moral dilemmas raise questions about what it means to belong, to belong to that area and to an ethnic group. A lot of what these young men were also doing was trying to use the capital they acquired through sexuality to gain respectability. In many parts of the world today, people use sex economies to try to move to the West or other more affluent parts of the world. What was interesting for me here is that these young men did not. Most of them wanted to go back to their home village, where the value of the money was higher, where they had the comfort of being at home and where the ability to negotiate respectability was very different. This created all kinds of puzzles. What does it mean to be a young man in your early 20s, to already have so much money and to gain access to becoming an elder, a respected elder, through your sexuality? All these conundrums raise the issues over what it means to belong. This is a story about East Africa, about Samburu indigenous people and the colonial discourses of their sexuality. In many ways, it is closely related to the global phenomenon of intensified migration. We see the commodification of ethnic sexuality everywhere. What I mean by ethnic sexuality is the very modernist idea that we carry within our bodies something that we can call sexuality. On the one hand, we see across the world now a growing commodification of migrants. I am currently doing research in Romania. A lot of Romanian migrants in Western Europe– men and women–commodify their sexualities and sexual economies, as Eastern Europeans and Romanians. This fantasy has very strong repercussions. On the other hand, we see growing ethno-nationalism everywhere that plays out in the name of sexuality and ethno-sexuality. Sexuality becomes quite key in both consumption and governance in the contemporary world. AM: In your book Queer Objects to the Rescue[ii], you shifted and narrowed the focus of your investigation by pointing to objects that play a surprising role in shaping political imageries that represent queerness as a societal threat and the resulting practices to exclude queer people. Your claim is that, if we want to understand and critique homophobia, we need to understand the role of such objects. One of your central points is that plastic plays an important role in this type of representation, as Chapter 4 of this book argues. What are the main reasons behind associating plastic with queerness? GPM: The deployment of political homophobia has played a central role in morally legitimizing the sovereignty of the state. In many contexts, the state actually works to monopolize capital and claim monopoly on various forms of extraction and exploitation. In this very moment, it seems to me that when we talk about these things, such as moral policing and moral panics, our ability to imagine has become quite bankrupt. When we talk about homophobia, for example, we end up demonizing homophobes versus positioning ourselves as scholarly critics; activists on a position of superiority to those irrational Others who hate. While not condoning any form of hate or relativizing it, I do think that as social scientists we have a responsibility–ethical and political–to try to understand the conditions in which hate is reproduced, also. Thus, working on objects was not necessarily an attempt to narrow the focus, but to escape this discursive realm that keeps us trapped in a kind of liberal, emancipatory discourse versus irrational, backward, demonic hate dichotomy. We need to understand things differently. We need to step a bit outside. Objects, in a way, did that for me. The paradox of homophobia, xenophobia, racism, misogyny and hate towards migrants creates a globalized grammar of hate. If these things indeed are global, then that still does not explain how people and populations–vast populations across the world with very different contexts of life, work and governance– pick them up. These discourses have to be made to resonate. I was trying to look at those poetics. How does a leader come in front of the masses and say: “your children are in danger immigrants, are in danger of the homosexuals?” For people to pick up, I do not believe these discourses that just assume masses are these irrational, malleable things. In reality, we have to pay close attention to the sentiments and desires that they are expressing. Therefore, for me, objects became an interesting coincidental way to tap into the production of collective sentiments. While doing previous research on my first book in Kenya, I started seeing a lot of concern and panics over various kinds of objects, and then I thought, how might panic over various kinds of objects tell us something about the panics over homosexuals or immigrants? Just to give a quick example, early on in my research I came across a Facebook post by somebody in Northern Kenya who made a homophobic statement. The way it was formulated was quite intriguing for me as an anthropologist. It said that “homosexuality is a foreign plastic import that doesn't fit African chemistry”. There's a lot of cultural and historical baggage that goes into formulating and understanding what is being said here. For me, this resonated because I had already started working in northern Kenya on questions of plastic and panics over them.  The fact that there is a whole category of young men in the area called plastic boys, children of refugees who do not claim any belonging to clans or lineages in the area, and therefore–like plastic–seem to come from elsewhere and never attach themselves to any particular place, is significant. Plastic became a very evocative medium, object, or set of objects, that gave a certain kind of material expression to anxieties over belonging, autochthony, bodily well-being, and integrity, as well as to concerns over reproduction, whether biological or social. In that regard, objects give us the certainty of a definitive cause for all our troubles it's because of plastic, it's because of the plastic boys, it's because of this that we cannot live our lives fully as an ethnic group, as a nation, and so on. Something very similar, in fact, happens with the homosexual body. These objects, I argue in this book, enable a certain kind of displacement of meanings, but also of sentiments, anxieties, and desires, from a very diverse set of contexts, where they often have very legitimate reason to exist, particularly where opportunities of work and social reproduction have shrunk. Yet while these anxieties are very legitimate, their projection upon objects, whether it's plastic or the homosexual or the immigrant, can be very problematic. This is, in a way, how I think contemporary politics works, and therefore we do need to pay attention to these forms of displacement. When you have a sexuality politics that only looks at what it names; when we say we're studying sexuality or we're activists of sexuality and all we care about is sexual identification and sexual expression; we miss out on how sexuality ends up taking on anxieties, concerns and desires that have nothing to do with sex or sexual identity at all. Rather, they belong to other domains like work, reproduction and consumption sovereignty. AM: Could you tell us about your fieldwork and how you try to make sense of the objects you encounter? What methodologies do you prefer when trying to account for the role of commodification in the routes of violence and displacement? GPM: I think that my methodologies over the years have become messier and messier. I am doing things that I would never advise my graduate students to do because it is, in a way, messy. I do find myself more and more in need to embrace messiness in order to decentre certain discourses. A proper methodology about sexuality would be to do some participant observation such as interviews – to talk to people about sexuality. What I'm doing is a bit different in the sense that, in order to understand what sexuality politics is about or what the commodification of sexuality is all about, you need to look elsewhere. You need to leave sexuality aside and look at the places in which its effects or, or conditions of possibility emerge. I am studying homophobia, but I am putting homophobia on hold, and I'm going and looking at what plastic signifies before I can connect it back. I call these ethnographic detours with other anthropologists who have written them in a similar vein. These kinds of methodologies pursue ethnographic detours. In other words, rather than look straight on at the subject that we claim to observe, and only engage with the literatures pertaining to that subject or take that subject very literally, I am trying to walk in circles around that subject in order to see how its effects or conditions of possibility emerge or register beyond it. To be a scholar or an anthropologist of sexuality, I have to actually pay attention to labor and economic value. I have to pay attention to questions of ethnicity and autochthony. I have to pay attention to questions of commodity production and consumption. In other words, you have to be everywhere and nowhere. AM: Your most recent publication On Hate, its Objects, and the Poetics of Sexuality juxtaposes the Romanian and the Kenyan cases of highly mediatization panics over sexuality. You argue that one of the reasons of defending the “family values from the foreign plight” is determined by “a late capitalist political economy when sexuality—its politics and poetics—plays out in uncannily similar ways across the world” and creates “an interplay between globally circulating grammars of identity” that are able to resonate with inherited historical anxieties. What creates the objects of hate in these cases? Could you expand on such patterns of panic? GMP: I think I can try to distil two patterns, maybe through an example or two, to help. Because one of the key issues of this modularity of objects of hate, whether we talk about the immigrant, whether we talk about the sexual other, whether we talk about various forms of sexualized indigenous people or racialized others and so on, there is something quite similar happening across the globe. For instance, the fact that Russia has anti-LGBTQ politics and the fact that previously Bolsonaro's Brazil had similar politics, those things resonate with one another. You cannot say that these are separate places, separate cultures –we live in a global world. We recognize the enemy, as it were, by virtue of its appearance everywhere. But what I am arguing as an anthropologist is that we cannot stop there. The work that this does in every place is really important to pay attention to. One interesting example was a few years ago when radical right protesters in Brazil, for example, protesting for family values, anti-LGBTQ policies, or against what they call “gender ideology”. Any discourse or film or culture production associated with gender and sexual diversity was depicted as somehow threatening to the fabric of a nation or a culture. When these protesters gathered in Rio in front of a venue where queer and feminist theorist Judith Butler was to give a talk, they produced an effigy of Judith Butler dressed as a witch and set it on fire as though to cleanse, as it were, the nation state of the plight of “gender ideology”. To me, what happened there of course is scary, but if you take a deep breath and try to analyse ethnographically what is going on there, it gives you a sense of the quite complex grammars through which this sort of sexuality politics and ethno-nationalism plays out. There is a growing sense of ambiguity and uncertainty around the center. I argue in my book Queer Objects to the Rescue: Intimacy and Citizenship in Kenya that you do not need to be queer for elements of your life to already have been deeply non-normativ

Joe Coleman, the legendary artist whose work digs into the darkest corners of the human psyche, joins us in the Crypt to discuss everything from painting serial killers like Carl Panzram, Albert Fish, and Ed Gein, to sharing the secrets of his controversial art. Join us as we delve into the contradictory beauty of the grotesque and the divine. Joe takes us inside his Odditorium, a personal collection as eerie as his paintings, where he houses macabre artifacts like a painting by John Wayne Gacy, the actual letter Albert Fish sent to Grace Budd's mother, a lock of Charles Manson's hair, and a Christmas card from Ed Gein. These relics serve as a tangible connection, DNA, to the energy that Joe channels into his art.   We explore the paradoxes of life and death that permeate Joe's art, discuss his fascination with the redacted stories of the Bible, the corruption of the soul and flesh, and dive into his experiences selling art to icons like HR Giger, Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Iggy Pop. –

In this week's episode of What Happens In Between, I sit down with Ola Akinmowo, the Founder, Curator, and Creator of The Free Black Women's Library: a Black feminist literary hub and community care space that features a collection of over 5000 books written by Black women. Ola helps us understand how to explore the different routes of expression, creation, and art as a ritual of self-actualization. How do we explore our own identities in a society that is anti-Black and anti-woman? Join us on today's episode as we explore what it means to be a Community Curator and a Self-defined Black Woman — who is choosing to thrive.Topics Covered:Questions around speculative fiction, collage work, and performance artThe concept of third spaces and commodification to assign valuePros and cons of social media: a meal for consumption Community as a connection to a common goal and how to learn from each otherThree questions for our Seedling RoundOla's perception of what it means to “be free”How Black women have to be a contradiction to exist fully Guest Info:Ola is an interdisciplinary artist and the curator, founder, and creator of The Free Black Women's Library, a Black feminist literary hub and community care space that features a collection of 5000 books written by Black women. This particular work is fueled by the tenets of Black Feminism, Community Care, and the transformative power of reading and creating to liberate, affirm, and heal.Connect with Ola Akinmowo on Instagram, Facebook, and The Free Black Women's Library Website. Support The Free Black Women's Library here. Follow Us:InstagramWebsiteFull DescriptionWe can use speculative thinking as a type of dreaming as an expansive way to dream big. As the curator, founder, and creator of The Free Black Women's Library, Ola is interested in the infinite possibilities in which we can see the world. She uses the library as a co-creation process between humans and the physical space they occupy. How does community care transform the world when there is a seat at the table for everyone? The Free Black Women's Library is considered a third space, but in Ola's words, it's “a space where black women can come and learn to read. To feel safe and feel free, within an anti-black, misogynist, misogynoir, patriarchal capitalist society.” Commodification is how we assign value — labeling and categorizing things help people better understand the mission. But how does language serve as another layer to what already exists, instead of a contradiction? Ola reminds us to explore the different routes of expression, creation, and art as a ritual of self-actualization. Freedom is accessible, but there's no finality to it. Join us on today's episode as we explore what it means to be a Community Curator and a Self-defined Black Woman — who is choosing to thrive. Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, host Dr. Aditya Bagrodia speaks with guests Dr. C.J. Stimson and Dr. Ruchika Talwar from Vanderbilt University about the relationship between physicians and big business in modern healthcare. First, the doctors discuss significant transformation in the healthcare sector, with multiple corporations like Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy entering the healthcare realm. Although earlier practices were physician-centric, the evolving trends show an inclination towards a more consumer-centric approach focusing on efficiency and value. The guests share their views on the necessity of doctors asserting their role in the changing landscape, emphasizing the importance of the doctor-patient relationship. The conversation also addresses innovations in the field such as value-based arrangements that prioritize patient experience while reducing costs. --- SHOW NOTES 00:00 - Understanding Market Dynamics in Urology 02:18 - The Role of Big Corporations in Healthcare 07:14 - The Shift from Doctor-Centric to Patient-Centric Care 13:07 - The Commodification of Healthcare Services 19:36 - The Future of Healthcare: Vertical Integration 21:22 - The Impact of Value-Based Care on Healthcare 29:28 - The Role of Employers in Healthcare 41:50 - The Future of Healthcare: An Optimistic Outlook

“He who does not know how to use leisure has more of work than when there is work in work.” This week, join Cyrus Palizban, Zohar Atkins, Genevieve Kim, Nicolás Sarian, and Anne Dudek as we explore the philosophy of leisure and work, prompted by the quote from Ennius. What constitutes leisure? Is it bound by time or the actions we take? From ancient Greek and Roman concepts of leisure, to the inherent leisureliness or divinity imbibed in God as depicted in the Genesis, to how the Industrial Revolution altered the definition of work, the conversation takes turns left and right in a way that is anything but leisurely!   00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Panel 00:24 Interpreting Ennius' Quote on Leisure 01:18 Leisure vs Time Off: A Greek Perspective 02:14 The Role of Leisure in Philosophy and Work 03:15 Defining Work and Leisure 04:05 The Impact of Modernity and Capitalism on Leisure 08:47 The Commodification of Leisure 10:18 The Role of Motivation in Leisure 15:32 The Aesthetic Experience and Leisure 17:06 Duties of the Heart vs Duties of the Limbs 20:36 The Role of Consumption in Leisure 22:18 The Paradox of Proactivity in Leisure 24:06 Exploring the Intersection of Leisure and Work 24:41 The Evolution of Language and its Impact on Perception 25:59 The Industrial Revolution and its Influence on Work 27:33 Theological Perspectives on Work and Leisure 29:11 The Concept of Time Ownership and Slavery 29:55 The Significance of the Weekend and Leisure Time 34:28 The Role of Risk and Uncertainty in Leisure 38:02 The Paradox of Sacrifice and Leisure 42:30 The Role of Risk in Leisure: A Case for Gambling 43:20 Wrapping Up: The Ongoing Debate on Leisure Want to continue the discussion?

Often cited but rarely studied in their own right, family directories allow a reconsideration of how ancestry and genealogy became an object of widespread commercialization across the eighteenth century. These directories replaced the expensive, locally-produced, early modern artefacts (tombs, windowpanes, illuminated pedigrees), and began to reach a wide audience of readers in the British Isles and the colonies.  In Selling Ancestry: Family Directories and the Commodification of Genealogy in Eighteenth Century Britain (Oxford University Press, 2023), Dr. Stéphane Jettot offers an insight into the cumulative process leading to the creation of these hybrid products — a combination of court almanacks, county histories, and town directories. Employed by contemporaries as reference tools to navigate through a dynamic and changing society, they could be used as a means to probe contemporary attitudes towards social status and political events. Published by the most prominent London booksellers who shared their copyrights among themselves, they relied on the considerable involvement of thousands of families in the counties. In their correspondence with publishers, many new and old elites desired to insert their own narrative into a general history of Britain by dispatching documents, quotations, and anecdotes. Based on a unique source-base, this book provides a systematic review of these directories, their production, and sale, but also their potential role in shaping the character of social change. Dr. Jettot demonstrates the wider ramifications of genealogy and its structural ability to reinvent itself, associate amateurs and antiquarians alike, and thrive on the wavering lines between facts and fiction, offering an exciting and unique insight into the social history of eighteenth-century Britain. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose forthcoming book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

In this episode we talk to Ali Kadri. Ali Kadri is the author of Arab Development Denied: Dynamics of Accumulation by Wars of Encroachment, The Unmaking of Arab Socialism: Anthem Frontiers of Global Political Economy and Development and The Cordon Sanitaire: A Single Law Governing Development in East Asia and the Arab World Max Ajl recently recommended that everyone needs to be reading Dr. Kadri's work in these times, and so we reached out to have a conversation with him and I'm so glad that we did and we can share it with you all. In this discussion we talk to Ali Kadri about his theory of waste, and how we make sense of war and genocide within our analysis of how capitalism functions on a global scale. Dr. Kadri gets into these dynamics in relation to the struggle to the genocide of Palestinians today. And we talk about imperialism and the class dynamics at play in the current struggle. I found this to be a super illuminating discussion in the current moment. This was recorded on November 8th, 2023. Check out all 16 of our recent livestreams on our youtube channel. Tonight, November 16th at 8 PM ET we will be hosting a screening of the film The Lobby - USA and we will host a panel afterwards. This is a documentary film that goes into the aims, strategies and tactics of the pro-Israel lobby in the US with regards to crushing Palestinian solidarity organizing among students and I highly recommend it. If you're listening to this after November 16th you can catch the replay at the same link which will be in the show notes.
