On the mass-production of loyalty. *** We are exceptionally making this episode of the Reading Club freely available. See the full syllabus here: 2024/25 Reading Club. If you'd like to join, subscribe at patreon.com/bungacast/membership. *** The second reading in this block on Inter/Nationalism in the 21st Century is The Invention of Tradition (eds. Eric Hobsbawm & Terrence Ranger, 1983), specifically Hobsbawm's chapter "Mass-Producing Traditions: Europe 1870-1914". How much did ordinary people buy into invented national traditions? Why did industrialisation allow for mass-producing traditions? Does the sense of belonging fostered then still exist today? If nation-states don't require active participation any more, what does this mean for the mass-production of loyalty? Are things like social media campaigns, national holidays for diversity, or even global events like the Olympics the new “mass-produced” traditions?

J. D. Vance delivers a seismic geopolitical speech at the Munich Security Forum. Vance, Trump and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy get into a shouting match before television cameras. Relations between the United States and Europe are deteriorating before our very eyes. In one of our best episodes of the year so far, we invited the great Ivan Krastev to help us understand what is happening.Ivan is one of the brightest minds in Europe — an incisive analyst, historian of ideas, and ever-present track-two diplomat who is always talking to absolutely everyone. He is chairman of the Centre for Liberal Strategies in Sofia, Bulgaria and Albert Hirschman Permanent Fellow at the Institute for Human Sciences in Vienna. He writes regularly for the Financial Times and the New York Times.Ivan tells Shadi Hamid and Damir Marusic that Trumpism, and its policy toward Europe is not conservative or isolationist, but “a revolutionary movement.” This revolution is what reconciles the populist and libertarian elements of Trump's administration: “You're trying to fight bureaucracy by concentrating power in a charismatic leader. Less state, more emperor.” You can see this, Ivan argues, in the way Trump runs his coalition like an imperial court, where opposing figures — like Steve Bannon and Elon Musk — vie for the attention of the emperor. You can also see it in the fact that Trump himself says contradictory things: “A charismatic figure can contain contradictions.”What does this mean for Europe? “Empires fall when the center sees itself as a hostage not as a hegemon,” Ivan argues, and Trump, along with Republicans, long to divest themselves of the Empire. This means applying pressure on Europe to bend to its demands — be it about Ukraine, or Greenland, or immigration. It also means that, inadvertently, Trump has reawakened European nationalism: “The new European politics is nationalist, the populists are internationalist.”This is a rich episode, full of insightful koans from a longtime observer of international affairs. Damir takes the conversation in the direction of what exactly fuels the Right and its “enthusiasm for destruction.” Shadi presses Ivan on the recently overturned elections in Romania, and what this means about the future of European democracy.In our bonus section for paid subscribers, the three men discuss why charismatic political leaders can live with contradictions; the “fast track between [political] office and prison”; how Trump has inadvertently created a new US-European consensus on immigration and state intervention in the economy, and why “you can't stop a revolution by defending institutions. You need your own version of tomorrow.”Required Reading and Viewing:* J. D. Vance's speech at the Munich Security Forum (Foreign Policy). * Zelenskyy, Trump and Vance press conference (C-Span YouTube page). * Ivan Krastev and Leonard Benardo, “Democracy Has Run Out of Future” (Foreign Policy).* Shadi Hamid, “Why Half of America is Cheering for Chaos” (Washington Post). * “EU parliament votes to condemn overturning of Roe v. Wade” (Axios).* German Revolution of 1918-1919 (Brittanica). * Leo Strauss, “German Nihilism” (archive.org).* Daniel Kehlmann, German writer (Wikipedia).* “The Gender Gap is Growing and it Bodes Badly for American Politics and Culture” (The Hill). * 2024 Romanian Elections (Wikipedia).* Ezra Klein, Why We're Polarized (Amazon). * Eric Hobsbawm, Age of Extremes: The Short Twentieth Century 1914-1991 (Amazon). * N.S.

70 Years of RFF: Looking Ahead with Young Economists at Resources for the Future (Rebroadcast)

We're rebroadcasting another episode from the Resources Radio archive while the team is on a break through the rest of December. This week's episode is a throwback to the final installment of a three-part series that celebrated the 70th anniversary of Resources for the Future (RFF), back in 2022. We'll return with new episodes in the new year; in the meantime, enjoy this one and poke around the archive at Resources.org for more topics you might be interested in. In this week's episode rerun, host Daniel Raimi looks toward the future of RFF, as seen through the eyes of the organization's talented and dedicated research analysts and associates. RFF's research analysts gather and analyze data, review published studies, help write papers and reports, and do it all with dedication and enthusiasm. They're an essential part of the organization's research. In this episode, Raimi talks with RFF Research Analysts Emily Joiner, Sophie Pesek, Nicholas Roy, and Steven Witkin, along with Senior Research Associate and Geographic Information Systems Coordinator Alexandra Thompson. While these young scholars share how they first got interested in environmental economics, they mostly focus on the future by lending insights about the topics they think RFF scholars will be working on in 20 or 30 years—and what role they see for themselves in that future.

About the lecture: This talk will offer an overview of Professor Shevelenko's current book-length project and will focus on a few case studies. The book examines artistic and intellectual tendencies that shaped the thinking about the “age of extremes” (to use Eric Hobsbawm's appellation for the twentieth century) during the late Soviet and post-Soviet period. This research analyzes the quest for narrative forms and techniques and, more broadly, representational strategies that the authors chose in order to capture the experience of society and individuals confronting the failure of political modernization and the disruption of social structures. About the speaker: Irina Shevelenko is Professor of Russian at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and director of CREECA. Her research interests include Russian modernist literature and art, late Soviet and post-Soviet culture, Russian poetry, and nationalism studies. She is the author and editor of several books in English and Russian, including Reframing Russian Modernism (edited volume, 2018) and Russian Archaism: Nationalism and the Quest for a Modernist Aesthetic (2024).

Eric Hobsbawm 20. yüzyılı aşırılıklar çağı olarak tanımlıyordu. Birinci Dünya Savaşının başlangıcı olan 1914 yılını yüzyılın miladı olarak kabul eden Hobsbawm Sovyetlerin çöküşü ile çağı nihayete erdiriyordu. Hobsbawm'a göre 1914 ile başlayan, katliam ve soykırımlarla milyonlarca insanın kaybına yol açan 20. yüzyıl tarihi bütünüyle bir savaş tarihidir. 20. yüzyıl bu anlamda yazılı kültürün gördüğü bir kesintisiz savaş dönemi olarak kabul edilmiş, Avrupa ile başlayarak Soğuk Savaş döneminde etki alanını genişletmiştir. Aşırılıklar çağının Avrupa'yı ilgilendiren kısmında savaşların yanı sıra İtalya'da Faşizm Almanya'da ise Nasyonel Sosyalizm olgusu şiddetin nasıl sıradanlaştırıldığını görmemiz açısından önemli. Her iki olgu da geniş kitleleri peşinden sürüklemesi ve dünya tarihsel olaylara zemin hazırlaması yönüyle üzerinde fazlaca düşünülmesi gereken siyasi pratiklerdir. Öyle ki 20. yüzyıl, şiddet ve aşırılık pratiklerini 21. yüzyıla da miras olarak bırakmış ve bu mirası tevarüs eden aktörler, içerisinde yaşadığımız çağı da etkisi altına almışlardır. Nitekim 7 Ekim sonrasında İsrail'in Gazze'de uyguladığı ve milyarlarca insanın hem konvansiyonel hem de dijital mecralar üzerinden canlı yayında takip ettikleri katliamlar, aşırılıklar çağının mirası olarak kabul edilmelidir. Peki 20. yüzyılın sonunda ABD örneği üzerinden ilan edilen liberal demokrasinin zaferi bugün bu aşırılıkların neresinde yer almaktadır? Netanyahu ABD Kongresinde Tam da bu soru bir savaş suçlusu olarak kabul edilen Netanyahu'nun ABD ziyareti ile daha fazla tartışmaya açılması gereken bir konu. Bir yanda özgürlüklerin beşiği addedilen ABD'nin dünyanın diğer kalanına rejim açısından örneklik teşkil edeceğine yönelik ön kabulü (1830'ların başında Tocqueville'in “Amerika'da Demokrasi”de söylediği 1990'larda ise Fukuyama'nın “Tarihin Sonu”nda mutlaklaştırdığı) diğer yanda ise on binlerce insanın katline yol açan bir siyasetçinin ABD Kongresinde taltif edilmesi. İlk etapta bir paradoks gibi görünen bu durum, aslında Batı tarihinde gerçekleştirilen soykırım, ayrımcılık ve yok sayma örneklerinin bir devamı.

Julia Hobsbawm is the award-winning author, commentator, publisher and, quite possibly, one of the world's most connected women.  During the course of her brilliant career, Julia has faced serious business, personal and health crises and yet … she strides on, time and time again, with a drive and resilience – and a sense of humour – from which we can all learn.    From living in the shadow of her renowned father, the Communist historian, Eric Hobsbawm, to founding – and in one instance closing - her own media companies, receiving an OBE and writing seven books … Julia's is a life littered with triumph and crisis. Notably, in this conversation, she talks powerfully and candidly about the ‘identity crisis' of being a Jewish woman who does not stand with Israel in the war with Gaza.  Her latest book Working Assumptions is a must read for anyone concerned about the future of work … and the workplace crisis business leaders are now wrestling with.  BookWorking Assumptions: What We Thought We Knew About Work Before Covid and Generative AI - And What We Know Now, 2024.  Links    Julia's Podcast: The Nowhere OfficeJulia's SoulCycle: https://www.justgiving.com/page/julia-hobsbawmsixtysoulcyclesforjessica Stream/buy ‘Allies' by Some Velvet Morning: https://ampl.ink/qp6bm    Some Velvet Morning Website: www.somevelvetmorning.co.uk      Your Daily Practice: Sleep by Myndstream: https://open.spotify.com/track/5OX9XgJufFz9g63o2Dv2i5?si=b2f9397c92084682    Host – Andy Coulson   CWC team: Jane Sankey, Louise Difford, Mabel Pickering   With special thanks to Ioana Barbu and the brilliant people at Global      For all PR and guest approaches please contact – podcast@coulsonpartners.com   Transcripthttps://www.crisiswhatcrisis.com/podcasts/julia-hobsbawm-on-battling-sepsis-facing-down-failure-and-being-a-jew-who-doesnt-support-israel/

We are joined by historian Gabriel Raeburn to discuss the thought of Eugene Genovese, a firebrand Marxist historian who fundamentally transformed the academic study of slavery in the United States and who, with Christopher Lasch, attempted to launch Marxist Perspectives, a serious Marxist-centered journal that brought together the entirety of the global intellectual literati and leading Marxist scholars of the time. With the backing of the most prominent Marxists of the time, from E.P. Thompson, Eric Hobsbawm, Frederic Jameson and with support from young scholars such as Barbara Fields, the journal promised to usher in a new era of Marxist intellectual output that aimed to crossover to the public. But the journal soon dissolved after only two years. With C. Derick Varn of @VarnVlog we discuss the dynamics of what led to the dissolution of this journal and what these lessons can teach us today as we aim to infuse Marxist thinking and scholarship beyond the academy. We also discuss the thought of Eugene Genovese and Christopher Lasch, the two primary scholars behind Marxist Perspectives. To learn more about Gabriel Raeburn and to be in touch with him should you have access to any letters of Genovese for his ongoing research, please find his bio here.

The arcane numbering system is gone, but Sean and Varn have (surprise!) a new miniseries. Inspired by current events - such as the Russo-Ukrainian War, Israel's ongoing atrocities in Gaza, and the turn towards post-neoliberal economic nationalism - we're going to explore all manner of Marxist and non-Marxist theories on the nation state to help get our heads around the current mess the world is in and hopefully chart a pathway out.How did the nation-state rise in the early modern world? what role has nationalism played in capitalist development? What are the historical legacies of Lenin and Stalin's nationalities policies? Rhetoric aside, what is the relationship (if any) between national liberation movements and the communist project?This is an extended preview.

In the popular imagination MI5, or the Security Service, is know chiefly as the branch of the British state responsible for chasing down those who pose a threat to the country's national security--from Nazi fifth columnists during the Second World War, to Soviet spies during the Cold War and today's domestic extremists.  Yet in Red List: MI5 and British Intellectuals in the Twentieth Century (Verso, 2022), David Caute argues in this radical and revelatory history of the Security Service in the twentieth century, suspicion often fell on those who posed no threat to national security. Instead, this 'other history' of MI5, ignored in official accounts, was often as not fuelled by the political prejudices of MI5's personnel, and involved a huge programme of surveillance against anyone who dared question the status quo. Caute, a prominent historian and expert on the history of the Cold War, tells the story of the massive state operation to track the activities of a range of journalists, academics, scientists, filmmakers, writers and others who, during the twentieth century, the Security Service perceived as a threat to the national interest. Those who were tracked include such prominent figures as Kingsley Amis, George Orwell, Doris Lessing, John Berger, Benjamin Britten, Eric Hobsbawm, Michael Foot, Harriet Harman, and others.

Durante el año 1848 se abrió un gran ciclo revolucionario en Europa. Esta vez no afectó a un solo país, sino a muchos que, de forma más o menos sincronizada, se encontraron con protestas callejeras masivas en las que los manifestantes exigían reformas políticas de calado o, directamente, cambios de régimen. En todos los casos se trató de revoluciones de carácter democrático y liberal. Había pasado ya más de medio siglo desde la Revolución Francesa y sus ideas habían calado ya muy hondo por toda Europa y América. Esta ola de 1848 afectó más a Europa que América. En esta última Estados Unidos era ya una potencia regional en ascenso y las repúblicas hispanoamericanas acababan de independizarse de la corona española. La Europa de aquella época era heredera directa del congreso de Viena y procuraba mantener ciertos equilibrios para no volver a los desórdenes de las guerras napoleónicas. Pero Europa había cambiado mucho en unas pocas décadas. La revolución industrial avanzaba a gran velocidad y, con ella, la población se creció sustancialmente, la prosperidad general aumentó y las ideas viajaban a mucha más velocidad. Las ideas favoritas de los revolucionarios de mediado el siglo XIX tenían que ver con libertades como la de expresión y prensa y con el establecimiento de parlamentos representativos y elegidos directamente. Los que salieron a la calle en casi todos los países de Europa querían eliminar o reformar las antiguas estructuras que aún persistían del antiguo régimen y crear estados-nación que empezasen desde cero con nuevas constituciones hechas a imagen y semejanza de la francesa. El pistoletazo de salida se dio en Francia en febrero de 1848. Allí la revolución se llevó por delante a la monarquía de julio de 1830, la de Luis Felipe de Orleans y quedó proclamada la segunda república francesa. Tras aquello la inestabilidad política se extendió por todo el continente como un reguero de pólvora. Pero los revolucionarios de las distintas partes de Europa no estaban coordinados entre sí aunque todos profesaban ideas muy parecidas. En Alemania, por ejemplo, las protestas adquirieron un carácter netamente nacionalista. Allí la llamada “revolución de marzo” giró en torno a la unificación de país y el fin de la Confederación Alemana que había nacido en el Congreso de Viena. Ese mismo mes en Hungría estalló una violenta revuelta que duró más de un año y que tuvo que ser reprimida por la fuerza. En Polonia se levantaron contra los prusianos, en el sur de Italia contra la dinastía borbónica, en los principados rumanos contra la dominación rusa, en Dinamarca contra la monarquía absoluta y en Suiza se desató una breve guerra civil que terminó alumbrando la Confederación Helvética tal y como la conocemos hoy. El mapa político de Europa no cambió, pero la agitación del año 1848 dejó varias cargas de profundidad que irían estallando una a una años más tarde. Los levantamientos habían sido un fracaso a corto plazo, pero sus impulsores terminarían saliéndose con la suya en los años subsiguientes. La unificación de Italia o Alemania, el segundo imperio francés o las disputas étnicas que alumbrarían en 1867 el Imperio Austrohúngaro tienen su origen en este año tan convulso que sus contemporáneos dieron en llamar de forma un tanto poética “la primavera de las naciones”.

El gran concierto europeo

Entre 1814 y 1914 reinó la paz en Europa. No fue una paz completa ya que hubo algunos conflictos, pero fueron muy localizados y no alteraron el equilibrio de las grandes potencias que se había establecido en el Congreso de Viena, una gran cumbre internacional que puso fin a las guerras napoleónicas. El sistema se mantuvo al principio mediante congresos periódicos en los que se dirimían de forma pacífica las diferencias tratando de mantener siempre el equilibrio. Luego los congresos se abandonaron, pero no el espíritu que los impulsaba. No querían, en definitiva, que Europa volviese al desorden revolucionario y napoleónico, pero tampoco a los siglos en los que las grandes dinastías como los Borbón o los Habsburgo se habían repartido Europa a su antojo. Mantener un sistema semejante en una Europa en plena ebullición política, económica y social fue todo un logro de las relaciones internacionales. En el siglo XIX Europa se terminó de adueñar del mundo mediante una expansión acelerada por los cinco continentes que había dado comienzo tres siglos antes con las primeras exploraciones de portugueses y castellanos. Junto a eso, la revolución industrial, surgida en Inglaterra a mediados del siglo XVIII, se extendió por todo el continente impulsando la economía y la demografía hacia arriba. Fue también un siglo convulso en el aspecto sociopolítico. Estallaron varias revoluciones y nacieron dos nuevas potencias, el imperio alemán y el reino de Italia, que, sin alterar del todo el equilibrio continental, lo pusieron a prueba en la década de 1870. El gran concierto europeo nunca fue perfecto, pero funcionó más o menos bien durante un siglo. Colocó al frente de los destinos de Europa a cinco potencias: Austria, Francia, Prusia, Rusia y el Reino Unido. Ninguna de ellas podía sobresalir por encima de las demás y sus áreas de influencia estaban bien delimitadas. Pero los desafíos que se les presentaron fueron muchos, especialmente a partir del ecuador del siglo, cuando los movimientos nacionalistas que proliferaban por Europa terminaron provocando guerras de unificación que introdujeron nuevos actores. Tras la unificación alemana, el canciller Otto von Bismarck trató de revivir el concierto europeo para que el recién nacido imperio pudiese consolidarse sin temor a la inestabilidad en el vecindario. Alemania era la sucesora del reino de Prusia, un país inmenso que crecía vigorosamente y que reclamaba su lugar bajo el sol entre las grandes potencias mundiales. El sistema de Viena se adaptó a la nueva realidad geopolítica y siguió funcionando bien durante otro medio siglo que sería testigo de la segunda revolución industrial y del predominio absoluto de Europa en todos los rincones del mundo. Aquella calma permitió que los Estados europeos creciesen económicamente y se expandiesen sin chocar entre ellos. Pero había ya demasiados gallos en el corral. En la segunda década del siglo XX el concierto saltó por los aires. La Europa sudoriental era un polvorín. Las potencias se alinearon en dos alianzas militares enfrentadas entre sí que terminarían por declararse la guerra durante el verano de 1914 por un asunto en principio baladí, una chispa que incendió el continente y lo metió de cabeza en la primera guerra mundial.

This week's episode is the final installment of a three-part series that celebrates the 70th anniversary of Resources for the Future (RFF). In this episode, host Daniel Raimi looks toward the future of RFF, as seen through the eyes of the organization's talented and dedicated research analysts and associates. RFF's research analysts gather and analyze data, review published studies, help write papers and reports, and do it all with dedication and enthusiasm. They're an essential part of the organization's research. In this episode, Raimi talks with RFF Research Analysts Emily Joiner, Sophie Pesek, Nicholas Roy, and Steven Witkin, along with Senior Research Associate and Geographic Information Systems Coordinator Alexandra Thompson. While these young scholars share how they first got interested in environmental economics, they mostly focus on the future by lending insights about the topics they think RFF scholars will be working on in 20 or 30 years—and what role they see for themselves in that future.
