Poptillægget er ramt af sygdom i denne uge. Derfor genudsender vi vores udsendelse om anti-arbejde, fordi vi slet ikke er færdige med at snakke om det. Men glæd jer til næste uge, hvor vi vender stærkt tilbage med et nyt afsnit.Vi taler om arbejde og arbejdskritik, som især bæres frem af de yngre generationer. Vi ser på, hvordan karrierelede og prekær udbrændthed tematiseres i populærkulturen - ikke mindst på internettet, hvor personlige beretninger om det at sige op, lade være, sove lure og yde selvomsorg ses som en politisk modstandskamp.Litteratur nævnt i programmet: ‘Hyldest til lediggang' af Bertrand Russell (1932), Atlas, (2016) ‘Bartleby - The Scrivener' af Herman Melville (1853). ‘Roden til alt ondt' af Eskil Halberg, Forlaget Nemo, 2017 ‘Det nye mig' af Halle Butler, Forlager Harpyie, 2021 ‘Bullshit Jobs' af David Graeber, Simon & Schuster, 2018 ‘Pseudoarbejde' af Dennis Nørmark og Anders Fogh Jensen, Gyldendal, 2018 ‘Do What You Love: And Other Lies About Success and Happiness' af Miya Tokumitso, Simon & Schuster 2015 ‘The New Prophets of Capital' af Nicole Aschoff, Verso 2015.

Compost Bin of History is roaring back with a historical reading series! Workin' guys James and Jared prod the underbelly of the ruling class by reading about the shenanigans of Peter Paul Montgomery Buttigieg and his zany former employer, McKinsey & Company, in “An Army of Pete Buttigiegs”, by Nicole Aschoff. Mayor Pete is the current Secretary of Transportation and noteworthy loser/winner of the 2020 Iowa Caucus. His management expertise and ambition for public service have made him a valued “asset” to many a “company” over his short career. Foremost among them, McKinsey & Co have pioneered the use of data translation and analytic technology to streamline shareholder revenue for the most trusted names in the Corporate World, from Enron to Best Buy, and have advised political actors from Eisenhower to MBS. Learn why this network of powerful business elites, this shadowy political faction – a cabal, if you will – is actually just really good at doing business stuff and worthy of your undying support. But you're probably too dumb to understand anyway, because you didn't go to Harvard. Sources: Aschoff, Nicole. “An Army of Pete Buttigiegs”. Jacobin Magazine.

Join us for a conversation between Nicole Aschoff and Rob Larson on how Big Tech and its philosopher kings are profiting off the coronavirus crisis, why that should make you angry, and what we can do about it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- With the necessity of social distancing forcing more and more of our lives to be lived through our screens, technology has begun seeping even deeper into the crevices of our social fabric. With everything from elementary school classes to routine doctor's visits being mediated by various apps, smart phones, and computers, Silicon Valley is poised to be more profitable—and more powerful as a political force—than ever before. Tales of Amazon's record profits, and Bill Gates's boundless generosity are presented by the media as the silver-linings we can all believe in amidst the endless torrent of pandemic related bad news. And yet signs of the tech related scandals-to-come are already all around us—Elon Musk's move to re-open his smart-car factories and stories of Zoom's predatory data hoovering practices being just two among many. Join authors, activists, and radicals Rob Larson and Nicole Aschoff as they discuss why we should resist swallowing the tech industry's puff, spin, and outright lies, and whether we use their own platforms against them to build digital socialism. Rob Larson is a professor of economics at Tacoma Community College and author of Bit Tyrants: The Political Economy of Silicon Valley, and Capitalism vs. Freedom. He writes for Jacobin, In These Times, Current Affairs and Dollars & Sense. Nicole Aschoff is a writer, editor, and sociologist. She is the author of The Smartphone Society: Technology, Power, and Resistance in the New Gilded Age and The New Prophets of Capital, an editor-at-large at Jacobin magazine, and managing editor of the Boston Institute for Nonprofit Journalism. Her writing has appeared in the Guardian, the Nation, Dissent, and Al Jazeera, among many other places, and she contributes regularly to podcasts and radio shows. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Order a copy of Nicole Aschoff's book The Smartphone Society: https://bookshop.org/a/1039/9780807061688 Order a Copy of Nicole Aschoff's book, The New Prophets of Capital: https://bookshop.org/a/1039/9781781688106 Order a copy of Rob Larson's book, Bit Tyrants: https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1447-bit-tyrants Order a copy of Rob Larson's book Capitalism Vs.

About the Event: On November 15, 2019, the Institute of World Politics hosted a special day-long debate event examining the past, present, and future of Socialism/Communism. Sponsored by the Claremont Institute together with the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation and produced by the Imprimatur Group to mark the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the program featured a morning debate on the economic viability of a socialist or communist system while the afternoon session explored the nature of cultural Marxism, which has been argued to have supplanted the tenets and goals of economic Marxism with a new emphasis on “social justice.” Our participants include Michael Anton, former member of the National Security Council, Marek Chodakiewiz, Professor of History at the Institute of World Politics, historian Ronald Radosh, a former Marxist and author of The Rosenberg File, and Michael Gonzalez, a senior fellow at the Douglas and Sarah Allison Center for Foreign Policy at the Heritage Foundation.

President Trump says his just-signed trade deal with China is unprecedented, but it's mostly symbolic and has little to nothing to offer ordinary Americans, says Jocobin's Nicole Aschoff.
Congress passed the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) almost unanimously. It contains improvements over the original NAFTA, but still puts corporate interests over those of ordinary citizens, says Jacobin's Nicole Aschoff.
Reihan Salam and Nicole Aschoff explain why the generation-long consensus in favor of ever freer trade has begun to fragment on the right and left. Atlantic columnist and National Review executive editor Reihan Salam tells the forgotten history of GOP protectionism.

Prophets of Profit (w/ Nicole Aschoff) by Left Jest
On today’s show, two sociologists talk about aspects of neoliberal restructuring. First, Nicole Aschoff, sociologist, author of The New Prophets of Capital and until very recently managing editor of Jacobin magazine speaks with me about the auto industry, Trump and why globalization shouldn’t be solely blamed for the destruction of good jobs even while it […]
Trump's oligarchic regime is an extreme version of the imperial and economic vision that has guided presidents of both major parties. But the popularity of Trump's chauvinist, xenophobic appeal points to a major crisis in the ideological and political-economic regime of the United States and the world for decades. That's neoliberalism, a system that isn't quite over under Trump. But as Nicole Aschoff argues in the most recent issue of Jacobin, it has radically changed. Today, my guest is Nicole Aschoff, managing editor at Jacobin and the author of The New Prophets of Capital, part of Jacobin's Verso Series. You can read her article "The Glory Days Are Over" in the new issue of Jacobin and at jacobinmag.com.
On a recent episode of the podcast Bad with Money with Gaby Dunn, Gaby explored some basic questions about capitalism with Jacobin managing editor Nicole Aschoff: what is it? Why does it encourage companies like Facebook to monetize our personal lives? Why do young people think it's so bogus? Why is it so bogus? Thanks to Gaby for letting us use the interview. You can subscribe to Bad with Money here. Nicole Aschoff is also the author of The New Prophets of Capital, which you can buy here.
