Zohran Mamdani's campaigning and victory in the Democrat NYC Mayoral primary has been a hyper-polarizing issue. One side says he is the new Democrat, even more radical than the originals, as if this is a good thing. Another side says he is an antisemite, radical Social Democrat Muslim, which makes no sense because Muslims are a very conservative people. The entire race has been focused on Israel rather than NYC, with one Israeli newspaper claiming that anti-Muslim attacks on Mamdani are actually anti-Jewish. But, see, it's actually social democracy that is a byproduct of Jews like Karl Marx. The democrats get 50% of all their money from the Jewish lobby and nearly 3/4 of all Jews support Democrats. Yet Mamdani is painted as anti-Jewish for not seeking to visit Israel, which is a separate issue from the Jews of NYC, who he says he will help by cracking down on hate crimes and speech - why would some groups call on Jews to evacuate NYC then? And there it is; the same policies coming from the conservative White House. Mamdani also reinforces October 7 as a reason for this censorship and says Jews feel unsafe in NYC, all of which takes away from the fact Jews are citizens and it is the NY citizen who should be the focus of the Mayor, not a foreign state or individual people; that the crime in NYC is a result of people like Mamdani himself. Mamdani is therefore likely working for Israel or the Mossad, or something equivalent. He is a plant. As for the other news about a “death” threat on Trump and Netanyahu, Infowars says Islam and Iran have issued a “death fatwa.” But a “fatwa” is only “a ruling on a point of Islamic law given by a recognized authority,” and that is what Iranian religious leader Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi did when declaring anyone who threatens Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as “an enemy of God.” Infowars then goes on to say that it “potentially incites” violence, which is different than both a “death threat” and “fatwa.” The same things are falsely being reported about the Al-Asghar (PBUH) World Assembly in Iran, which occurs every year. Numerous sources are reporting that the Iranian women seen holding their babies in the air are offering them up as radical sacrifices to Islam, when what they are really doing is honoring mothers and remembering the infant martyrs in Iran and the Gaza Strip. A martyr is “a person who is killed or made to suffer because of their religious or other beliefs,” meaning one who is persecuted for being, in this case, Muslim. And these mothers are honoring the dead killed by Israel, who says their chants are meant to kill their own babies and those of Israel and the U.S., which is a disgusting display of propaganda that like the word “fatwa” completely demeans a language, culture and religion. The chants of “death” to America or Israel are always provoked - by starvation, war, peace deals broken, lies about diplomacy etc. - not a byproduct of hating American freedom. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

O Lado B recebe Euclides Vasconcelos, professor de História e Geografia, analista geopolítico e militante comunista. No papo, como Israel se posiciona no mundo de maneira bélica: o caráter imperialista na guerra com o Irã, o massacre na Palestina, a submissão e bajulação aos Estados Unidos. Também o papel das outras potências como Rússia e China e outros desdobramentos que podem, sim, desencadear uma nova guerra mundial. Afinal, é o capitalismo se movendo.

Communism's rise began with Karl Marx, who introduced the idea of class struggle and critiqued capitalism in response to industrial-era poverty. Marx envisioned a classless society but as Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar point out, his philosophy extended beyond economics—it was rooted in atheism. Oscar shares how his first introduction to atheism came through Marxist economic literature, which proposed a godless utopia. Communism eventually took root in Russia and China, spreading fear of lost democracy. The guys note that socialism is often viewed as a bridge to communism, but a pure communist society has never existed due to the corrupting nature of human power.The conversation emphasizes that capitalism, while often defended, is not flawless either. The gospel—not any man-made system—is the only sufficient answer to the world's brokenness. Communism mimics Christianity in its pursuit of equality but rejects God's sovereignty and misunderstands human nature. It promotes forced sharing instead of joyful stewardship. The guys agree: any ideology that excludes God becomes idolatry, offering a counterfeit redemption story. In contrast, the gospel leads people to good works driven by love, not compulsion. Scripture affirms the dignity of work and personal responsibility.Oscar walks through how communism promises a classless utopia but fails because of a flawed view of the human condition. Power concentrated in godless hands leads to abuse. Those at the top of communist regimes often live in luxury while preaching sacrifice. The guys stress that human-led systems can't fix spiritual problems—only Christ can. They caution against defending capitalism blindly and urge believers to examine economic systems through a gospel-centered lens, digging deep into these issues before taking a firm stance. Mark shares a powerful story of a prisoner in a communist regime who endured torture but clung to Christ, reminding us that no one can steal what we've surrendered to God. E.Z. recounts seeing the effects of communism in Cuba, yet witnessing thriving Christians. The guys remind us that God's will is unstoppable. Even in North Korea where the gospel is not easily accessed, people have found ways to evangelize. Real change won't come through politicians or ideologies but through Jesus. Love—the fruit of the gospel—is the answer to every societal dilemma. When we walk in love, we don't seek loopholes or act out of greed. The only true solution to both capitalism's flaws and communism's promises is the gospel: Christ crucified, risen, and reigning.Send us a textThanks for listening!

In the latest in our series on belief, we’re looking at China’s official belief system—Marxism. In recent years, netizens have argued China has entered the ‘garbage time’ of history, a phrase borrowed from the dying minutes of a basketball game, which now references a crisis of trust in the Communist Party and its official ideology. To ask whether Marxism still exists in China, and how Marx influences the Chinese state, we’re joined by two guests: Alison Sile Chen Zhao, a University of California political analyst and the author of Her Battles, and Professor Xu Chenggang, a senior research fellow at the Stanford Center on China's Economy and Institutions, and the author of Institutional Genes: Origins of China’s Institutions and Totalitarianism.

The guys discuss the rise of communism through Karl Marx's ideas, highlighting its roots in atheism and its flawed view of human nature. They emphasize that while communism aims for equality, it rejects God's sovereignty and replaces the gospel with a counterfeit hope. The guys point out that socialism often serves as a stepping stone to communism, but no true communist society has existed because power, when godless, leads to corruption. They also acknowledge that capitalism has its flaws and caution Christians against defending it without examining it through a gospel-centered lens. Ultimately, they stress that neither capitalism or communism can fix the human condition—only Jesus can. The gospel, rooted in love and personal responsibility, is the only true answer to society's brokenness.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Michael Cholbi approaches work not just as a function of economics or management but as a deep philosophical question. He brings a rare lens to the topic, one that connects ancient wisdom, contemporary ethics, and the day-to-day experience of workers today. In this episode, Michael and Dart explore how work shapes us and how it might be reimagined to serve us better. From Plato and Marx to Bullshit Jobs, dignity to autonomy, they ask what makes work just, and whether companies are morally responsible for the work they design.Michael Cholbi is a Professor of Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh and the author of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy's definitive entry on the philosophy of work. His research explores ethics, justice, and how societal structures influence human well-being. In this episode, Dart and Michael discuss:- Why many people are “work-positive” by necessity, not choice- What adaptive preferences reveal about our relationship to labor- The moral obligations of companies that design work as a product- Is the duty to work just?- How automation could decenter work and expand freedom- Working for dignity vs. being used as a means- What a less work-centered future might offer us all- And other topics…Michael Cholbi is a Professor of Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh, specializing in moral philosophy and the philosophy of work. He is the author of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy's definitive entry on work and labor—a leading scholarly resource.

To read Karl Marx is to contemplate a world created by capitalism. People have long viewed the United States as the quintessential anti-Marxist nation, but Marx's ideas have inspired a wide range of individuals to formulate a more nuanced understanding of the stakes of the American project. Historians have highlighted the imprint made on the United States by Enlightenment thinkers such as Adam Smith, John Locke, and Thomas Paine, but Marx is rarely considered alongside these figures. Yet his ideas are the most relevant today because of capitalism's centrality to American life. In "Karl Marx in America", historian Andrew Hartman argues that, although Karl Marx never visited America, the country has been profoundly influenced, shaped, and transformed by his ideas. Since the beginning of the Civil War, Marx has been a specter in the American machine. During the Gilded Age, socialists read Marx as a remedy for the unchecked power of corporations. During the Great Depression, communists turned to Marx in the hope of transcending the destructive capitalist economy. Marx inspired the young activists of the 1960s as they gathered to protest a war overseas. Marx's influence is also evident today, as Americans have become increasingly attuned to issues of inequality, labor, and power. After decades of being pushed to the far-left corner of intellectual thought, Marx's ideologies have crossed over into the mainstream and are more alive than ever. Working-class consciousness is on the rise, and, as Marx argued, the future of a capitalist society rests in the hands of the people who work at the point of production. A valuable resource for anyone interested in Marx's influence on American political discourse, Karl Marx in America is a thought-provoking account of the past, present, and future of his philosophies in American society. This week, the dialectic sat down with the author, Andrew Hartman, to chat about this new book. About The Dialectic at Work is a podcast hosted by Professor Shahram Azhar & Professor Richard Wolff. The show is dedicated to exploring Marxian theory. It utilizes the dialectical mode of reasoning, that is the method developed over the millennia by Plato and Aristotle, and continues to explore new dimensions of theory and praxis via a dialogue. The Marxist dialectic is a revolutionary dialectic that not only seeks to understand the world but rather to change it. In our discussions, the dialectic goes to work intending to solve the urgent life crises that we face as a global community.

In this conversation from 2024, Alex speaks with Marc-William Palen about the evolution of left-wing visions of free trade from the mid-19th century through the Cold War, highlighting key movements and figures like the Anti-Corn Law League, Karl Marx, and the Fair Trade movement, and contrasting these with protectionist and imperialist policies of the era.

Kevin Anderson's The Late Marx's Revolutionary Roads: Colonialism, Gender, and Indigenous Communism (Verso, 2025) encourages to look again at the intellectual and political work of a figure some may assume has been exhausted: Karl Marx. Following on from his earlier landmark study Marx at the Margins: On Nationalism, Ethnicity and Non-Western Societies (University of Chicago Press, 2016), this volume turns specifically to the ‘late Marx'. In this period (1869-82), Marx spent much of his time engrossed in the study of colonialism, agrarian Russia and India, Indigenous societies, and gender among many other less known topics of his interest. His notes, especially what come to be known as The Ethnological Notebooks, along with letters, essays and a scattering of published texts remain only poorly known (and in some cases unpublished or not yet fully translated into English) and form the backbone of Anderson's study. They evidence a change of perspective, away from Eurocentric worldviews or unilinear theories of development. Anderson shows how the late Marx sees a wider revolution that included the European proletariat being touched off by revolts by oppressed ethno-racial groups, peasant communes, and Indigenous communist groups, in many of which women held great social power. In our discussion, we highlight some of the key themes in the late Marx, bringing out the ways in which Marx is making connections across his writings, how colonial subjects in Ireland and India share commonalities and what can be seen when we look at communal social forms in Russia and among Native Americans. We also discuss why Marx can be seen as a decolonial thinker, consider what he might have produced had he lived longer and the ways in which the late Marx can be presented to students to complement his central themes of class and capitalism.

Part 1 The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx SummaryThe Communist Manifesto: Summary Introduction: The Communist Manifesto, authored by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels and published in 1848, serves as a political pamphlet that outlines the principles of communism and the authors' critique of capitalism. It is divided into four sections, each addressing different aspects of societal development, class struggles, and the concept of communism as a revolutionary response to pervasive inequality. Bourgeois and Proletarians: The manifesto begins by explaining the history of society as a history of class struggles. It delineates two primary classes: the bourgeoisie (the capitalist class who own the means of production) and the proletariat (the working class who sell their labor). The authors argue that the rise of the bourgeoisie during the industrial revolution has led to the oppression of the proletariat. They assert that the capitalist system is inherently exploitative, as the value generated by workers is appropriated by the capitalist class, resulting in vast profits for the bourgeoisie and impoverishment for the proletariat. Proletarians and Communists: In this section, Marx and Engels clarify the role of communists within the broader working-class movement. They emphasize that communists do not form a separate party but rather represent the interests of the proletariat as a whole. The manifesto asserts that communists aim to abolish private property, which they claim is the root of class division and exploitation. They advocate for the transformation of society through collective ownership of the means of production, establishing a classless society that prioritizes human needs over profit. Socialist and Communist Literature: Marx and Engels critique various contemporary socialist and communist literature, exposing their limitations and misconceptions. They criticize utopian socialism for being overly idealistic and lacking a practical political strategy. Instead, they call for a revolutionary approach to dismantle the capitalist system, arguing that the working class must unite to achieve their emancipation. Position of Communists in Relation to the Various Existing Opposition Parties: The final section addresses the political landscape of Europe at the time, discussing the various radical movements against the ruling class. Marx and Engels encourage the workers of the world to rally together in solidarity, emphasizing internationalism and the idea that workers of all nations have a common interest in overthrowing their oppressors. They conclude with a famous rallying cry: "Workers of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains!" Conclusion: The Communist Manifesto is both a political document and a call to action. It articulates the grievances of the working class under capitalism, while advocating for revolutionary change. Marx and Engels' work has had a profound impact on political thought and movements across the globe, shaping the discourse on class struggle, socialism, and communism.Part 2 The Communist Manifesto AuthorKarl Marx, the German philosopher, economist, and political theorist, co-authored "The Communist Manifesto" with Friedrich Engels. This pivotal political document was first published in London on February 21, 1848. It lays out the principles of Communism and argues for class struggle as the engine of historical and social change. Other Notable Works by Karl Marx:Das Kapital (Capital: Critique of Political Economy) The first volume was published in 1867, and subsequent volumes were published posthumously by Friedrich Engels. "Das Kapital" is considered Marx's major work, in which he critiques the political economy and explores the nature of capitalism.The German Ideology (written in 1845-46, published posthumously in 1932) This work, co-authored...
While we're told by politicians that the ideas of Karl Marx are foreign and have no place in this country, history proves otherwise. Andrew Hartman shows that Marx and Marxism have had an a significant influence on the United States, from Marx's journalistic writings for the New York Daily Tribune, on the mass politics of the Socialist and Communist Parties and the Wobblies, on the most radical edge of the New Deal and the New Left, and finally with the return to Marx's ideas since the Global Financial Crisis. Andrew Hartman, Karl Marx in America University of Chicago Press, 2025 The post American Marx appeared first on KPFA.
It is indisputable that Marx began his intellectual trajectory as a philosopher, but it is often thought that he subsequently turned away from philosophy. In Karl Marx and the Actualization of Philosophy (Cambridge University Press, 2025), Christoph Schuringa proposes a radically different reading of Marx's intellectual project and demonstrates that from his earliest writings his aim was the 'actualization' of philosophy. Marx, he argues, should be understood not as turning away from philosophy, but as seeking to make philosophy a practical force in the world. By analysing a series of texts from across Marx's output, Schuringa shows that Marx progressively overcame what he called 'self-sufficient philosophy', not in order to leave philosophy behind but to bring it into its own. This involves a major reinterpretation of Marx's relationship to his ancestors Aristotle, Kant and Hegel, and shows that philosophy, as it actualizes itself, far from being merely a body of philosophical doctrine, figures as an instrument of the revolution. Christoph Schuringa is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Northeastern University London. He has published widely on the history of philosophy and on Marx and Marxism, and is editor of the Hegel Bulletin. Caleb Zakarin is editor at the New Books Network. Learn more about your ad choices.

„Die Bienenfabel“ ist einer der einflussreichsten Texte in der Geschichte der Wirtschaftstheorien. Der nach London übergesiedelte Niederländer Bernard Mandeville veröffentlichte die Schrift 1705 und verblüffte nicht nur seine Zeitgenossen, sondern auch Karl Marx und Friedrich August von Hayek mit seiner Ehrlichkeit. Nichts Geringeres als die Rechtfertigung für Ungleichheit, Hierarchie und Laster liefert die „Bienenfabel“ – jedoch dies alles zum Wohle des Staates und der Gesellschaft. Wobei mit Gesellschaft keineswegs all ihre Mitglieder gemeint sind. Anders als Jordan B. Peterson, der gern Vergleiche mit der Natur bemüht, um menschliches Verhalten davon abzuleiten, will Mandeville mit seiner Fabel nur verdeutlichen, wie der Mensch sich organisieren sollte. Er soll sich dabei nicht an den Bienen orientieren, sondern die Bienen stehen für den Menschen und die perfekte Ordnung, die selbstredend eine kapitalistische ist. In der neuen Folge von „Wohlstand für Alle“ sprechen Ole Nymoen und Wolfgang M. Schmitt über den bis heute relevanten Text!

Introdução - Módulo 02 No coração do cristianismo, e particularmente no ethos adventista, está a convicção de que a ordem não é uma imposição administrativa, mas um dom espiritual e profético. O Módulo 2 da série A Ordem e a Representação propõe uma leitura profunda e orgânica das estruturas de liderança da IASD a partir das lentes da filosofia política, da tradição patrística, da teologia da história e das críticas modernas à autoridade. Mais do que apenas discutir modelos de governo, este módulo busca iluminar o sentido teológico, simbólico e escatológico da ordem na vida comunitária e representativa da Igreja.

Check the website here: http://enlites.com/ Dr. Vanessa Christina Wills is Associate Professor of Philosophy at The George Washington University. Her areas of specialization are moral, social, and political philosophy, nineteenth century German philosophy (especially Karl Marx), and the philosophy of race. Her research is importantly informed by her study of Marx's work, and focuses on how socioeconomic arrangements can inhibit or promote the realization of values such as freedom, equality, and human development. She is the author of Marx's Ethical Vision. In this episode, we focus on Marx's Ethical Vision. We start by discussing Marxism and morality, and whether morality is a form of ideology. We talk about human nature, normativity, and the “rich individual”. We discuss “bourgeois” ethics, individuality, and human rights. We talk about the idea of abolishing morality, and how life would be like in a fully developed communist society. We also talk about the failures of neoliberal capitalism, the role of intellectuals, and intersectionality.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Communism is a classless, moneyless and stateless society. So far, so simple. And so far out of reach. Or, we could define it differently, as “the real movement that abolishes the present state of things”. That's how Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels described it in the German Ideology. Jasper Bernes is the author of The Future […]
While we're told by politicians that the ideas of Karl Marx are foreign and have no place in this country, history proves otherwise. Andrew Hartman shows that Marx and Marxism have had an a significant influence on the United States, from Marx's journalistic writings for the New York Daily Tribune, to the mass politics the Socialist and Communist Parties and the Wobblies, on the most radical edge of the New Deal, and the New Left, and finally with the return to Marx's ideas since the Global Financial Crisis. The post Fund Drive Special: Marx's Influence on America appeared first on KPFA.
ORIGINALLY RELEASED Mar 19, 2024 Alyson and Breht explain and explore Karl Marx's classic work "The 18th Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte." Together, they discuss Marx's incisive analysis of Louis Bonaparte's rise to power, the complex interplay between historical events and class struggle, and the profound insights into how revolutions unfold and regress. In the process, they delve into French history, the peasantry and lumpenproletariat, Bonapartism's relationship to modern Fascism, the role of the State under capitalism, and how all of this helps us to make sense of our contemporary moment of crisis in the US and around the world. ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio HERE

For a long time, Republicans and many Democrats espoused some version of free-trade economics that would have been familiar to Adam Smith. But Donald Trump breaks radically with that tradition, embracing a form of protectionism that resulted in his extremely broad and chaotic tariff proposals, which tanked markets and deepened the fear of a global recession. John Cassidy writes The New Yorker's The Financial Page column, and he's been covering economics for the magazine since 1995. His new book, “Capitalism and Its Critics: A History,” takes a long view of these debates, and breaks down some of the arguments that have shaped the U.S.'s current economic reality. “Capitalism itself has put its worst face forward in the last twenty or thirty years through the growth of huge monopolies which seem completely beyond any public control or accountability,” Cassidy tells David Remnick. “And young people—they look at capitalism and the economy through the prism of environmentalism now in a way that they didn't in our generation.”
CLUMSY COMMUNISM LOSING BADLY IN BEIJING: 3/8: To the World: The Rise and Fall and Rise of Communism by Sean McMeekin (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Overthrow-World-Rise-Fall-Communism/dp/1541601963 When the USSR collapsed in 1991, the world was certain that Communism was dead. Today, three decades later, it is clear that it was not. While Russia may no longer be Communist, Communism and sympathy for Communist ideas have proliferated across the globe. In To Overthrow the World, Sean McMeekin investigates the evolution of Communism from a seductive ideal of a classless society into the ruling doctrine of tyrannical regimes. Tracing Communism's ascent from theory to practice, McMeekin ranges from Karl Marx's writings to the rise and fall of the USSR under Stalin to Mao's rise to power in China to the acceleration of Communist or Communist-inspired policies around the world in the twenty-first century. McMeekin argues, however, that despite the endurance of Communism, it remains deeply unpopular as a political form. Where it has arisen, it has always arisen by force. Blending historical narrative with cutting-edge scholarship, To Overthrow the World revolutionizes our understanding of the evolution of Communism—an idea that seemingly cannot die. 1959 MAO
