On Perry Anderson's "Internationalism: A Breviary". [For the full episode subscribe at patreon.com/bungacast] We kick off the second block/theme of the 2024/25 Reading Club on Nations & Internationalism in the 21st Century by looking at a 2002 essay which charts nationalism against internationalism from the Atlantic revolutions through to the age of globalisation. It is particularly apposite to revisit this text in light of an acceleration in de-globalisation brought on by the second Trump presidency. What are the cultural aspects of "internationalism"? While nationalism can be good or bad, internationalism is usually seen as positive. Is this still the case? How has internationalism accompanied, seperated from or stood against nationalism throughout the latter's history? How is internationalism different from cosmopolitanism today, if at all? How could we update Anderson's charting of internationalism along 5 coordinates: capital, geography, philosophy, nation-definition, and class relations?

Depois do primeiro episódio em que ouvimos falar sobre livros portugueses que contribuíram para o processo revolucionário do 25 de Abril, vamos agora focar a nossa atenção na literatura anticolonial, cujos contornos são mais internacionais, mas mais difíceis de definir. A lista de livros a discutir começa pelas obras do jornalista Basil Davidson da década de 1950, do antropólogo norte-americano Marvin Harris, Portugal's African "Wards" - A First-Hand Report on Labor and Education in Moçambique (1958) e de James Duffy, Portuguese Africa (1959). A esta configuração anglo-americana pertencem, igualmente: o livro do jornalista português António de Figueiredo, que terá sido ajudado, tanto por Harris como por Davidson, na publicação do seu livro intitulado Portugal and its Empire: the Truth (1961); bem como o de Perry Anderson, Portugal and the End of Ultra-Colonialism (1962). Do lado francês, a revista Présence Africaine acolheu nacionalistas angolanos nas suas lutas pela independência, como foi o caso de Mário Pinto de Andrade e do escritor Castro Soromenho. O Padre Robert Davezies, conhecido por ter denunciado as atrocidades da Guerra da Argélia, emprestou a sua voz à causa de Angola, num primeiro livro Les Angolais (1965), a que se seguiu La Guerre d'Angola (1968). São também lembrados os textos de dois combatentes pela libertação da Guiné e de Moçambique: é o caso de Amilcar Cabral, que escreveu a introdução à obra de Basil Davidson, The Liberation of Guiné: Aspects of an African Revolution (1969), bem como de Eduardo Mondlane, The Struggle for Mozambique (1969). Nesta sequência, é ainda considerada a intervenção do Padre Hastings na denúncia do massacre de Wiriamu, ocorrido em 1972. São ainda referidas obras mais dispersas e até de certa forma híbridas, como é o caso de ‘Negritude e humanismo’, um opúsculo publicado pela Casa dos Estudantes do Império em 1964, de Alfredo Margarido. O escritor e investigador construiu uma articulação rara entre produção literária e investigação histórica e antropológica. Esta última tinha, aliás, raízes na criatividade dos surrealistas, representados na passagem de Cruzeiro Seixas por Angola, iniciada na década de 1950. Paralelamente, a tradução portuguesa de Os condenados da terra de Frantz Fanon, com prefácio de Jean-Paul Sartre, aponta para um outro facto editorial conseguido na contra-corrente da censura, em meados da década de 1960. O debate é moderado por Isabel Castro Henriques e conta com a participação de Aurora Santos, Bernardo Cruz, José Augusto Pereira, Manuela Ribeiro Sanches, Nuno Domingos e Víctor Barros.

In this episode we get the Perry Anderson treatment and ask if we philosophers are the problem with how Western Marxism has evolved over time. We discuss what Anderson calls the formal and thematic shifts that happened within this theoretical tradition once the philosophers got in the driver's seat. Partly ethnographic, partly analytical, and a little more meta-philosophical than usual. We hope you'll indulge us this once as we ask ourselves what the hell we're doing. leftofphilosophy.com | @leftofphilReferences:Perry Anderson, Considerations on Western Marxism (London: Verso Books, 1979).Music:Vintage Memories by Schematist | schematist.bandcamp.com

Alex then explains why, lamentably, there is no side worth choosing.   We then delve into various key points:  why Hamas was becoming irrelevant and how the 7 October attack was an attempt to combat that;  why violence is necessary but the Palestinians are in a catch-22;  how the West is implicated in the violence and callousness on show;  why the Palestinians are the most oppressed and forgotten people;  why Hamas is not an anticolonial freedom struggle; and  what is the right way to compare this to Ukraine.

On the global left after the Cold War. [Patreon Exclusive] Has the left declined, been defeated, or is it dead? Is the continuity with the Old and New Lefts of the 20th century, or should we understand 1989 as marking a definitive break? We use a long essay by Swedish Marxist sociologist Göran Therborn in the latest New Left Review as a plank to examine these questions. Therborn tries to present a synoptic analysis of where the left is, globally speaking, almost a quarter of the way into the 21st century. Is he right that the old dialectics of industrialism and colonialism are no longer operative - and that no new dialectic has emerged?  And is trying to present a "balance sheet" a valid approach in the first place?   FILL OUT OUR 2022 LISTENER SURVEY: tinyurl.com/bunga2022survey Links: The World and the Left, Göran Therborn, New Left Review (2022) Renewals, Perry Anderson, New Left Review (2000) /37/ The Ghosts of May ‘68 ft.

The interests of the bourgeoises (aka ruling or capitalist class) are centred on increasing profits. Proletariat: a social class comprised of workers without access to the means of production, and therefore are dependent on exchanging labour power for a wage. Marx believed the working class is fundamentally exploited and oppressed to produce profits for the capitalist class, and will ultimately overthrow the bourgeoisie creating a classless society. Gramsci: Antonio Gramsci was an Italian Marxist thinker, 1891–1937. He moved beyond the classic Marxist materialist approach to consider the place of ideas, culture, morality, feelings, and values in shaping collective will and influencing social reform. Fukuyama: Francis Fukuyama wrote The End of History and the Last Man in 1992. He believed liberalism had won the struggle for power through the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.

DISCORD: https://discord.gg/Ym8Bwmaz LINKTREE: https://linktr.ee/AuxiliaryStatementsPodcast This week Jack and Dan cover the first half of Anderson's classic book on the transition to feudalism. They cover the rise of the slave mode of production in Antiquity from its initial emergence as a solution to class struggle in Greece to its peak during thee Roman Empire. Whilst this mode of production allowed the ancient states to reach stunning cultural heights it was also wracked with internal contradictions that would be its undoing. The eventual crisis was one of an under supply of slaves and whilst the eventual demise of Western Roman Empire was a protracted affair, when the invaders came, their fate was sealed by weaknesses stemming from the mode of production. According to Anderson a new synthesis developed over the next several centuries, a synthesis of two political economies in crisis and decay. It was the melding of Roman and Germanic ways of life that gave rise to the feudal mode of production. Reading - Part 1 - ''Passages from Antiquity to Feudalism'' (1974) by Perry Anderson

We're back from our summer break with David, Helen and Adam Tooze exploring what the pandemic has revealed about politics, economics and the new world order. From Covid crisis to China crisis to climate crisis: how does it all fit together? And what comes next? Adam's new book is Shutdown: How Covid Shook the World's Economy. Plus David talks about his new book based on series one of History of Ideas: Confronting Leviathan. Talking Points:The term ‘lockdown' can be misleading. Many aspects of the response were not top-down.Most of the reduction in mobility predated government mandate.The financial markets made huge moves and central banks then had to step in.The popular response cannot be separated from the actions of the state.The term ‘shutdown' better captures the pandemic's impact on the economy.Huge parts of the productive economy literally ground to a halt. It seems like central banks learned something from the last crisis.Is there still a realistic prospect of normalization? Adam and Helen are skeptical. Is there such thing as democratic money?If so, then democracy has changed.The condition of possibility for the freedom of action of central bankers is a political vacuum.Parts of the left see an opportunity in monetary politics. The entire monetary order in China is political, but there was a debate within the regime over stimulus.The conservatives won out.Some Western financial leaders used this to push back against central bankers in their own countries. The Republican party is becoming increasingly incoherent.Some, such as Mnuchin, emphasize the structural necessity of some kind of continuity. Others, such as Jay Powell, argue that the priority is confronting China. There is an ongoing de-centering from the West in a dollar-based world. The U.S.-China competition has changed. We have moved from a realm of competition over GDP growth rates to a much starker contest involving hard power.The tech sanctions are a sovereignty issue, not just an economic issue.Mentioned in this Episode:Adam's new book, ShutdownJames Meadway on neoliberalismRudiger Dornbusch, Essays (1998/2001)Quinn Slobodian on right-wing globalistsPerry Anderson's review of Adam's work, and Adam's responseMarx's Capital Volume 1Helen's book, Oil and the Western Economic CrisisDaniela Gabor on macrofinance

Needless to say, we're not experts in this history, but we leaned on our ol' pal Perry Anderson to guide us along to the heart of our research on the Erdogan period. Readings for this series include: Turkey at the Crossroads by CIHAN TUĞALA Small World War by GEORGI DERLUGUIANThe New Old World by PERRY ANDERSONThe music you hear on After the End of History is provided by Jason King.

Kemalizm konusundaki yayına gelen tepkiler arasında, bugünün sorunun Kemalizm olmadığı, 2021'de 1930'ların konuşulmasının yersizliği gibi yargılar yanında Kemalist halkçılığın sınıfsızlık tezinin inkarına varan değerlendirmeler dikkat çekiyordu. İngiliz Marxist kuramcı Perry Anderson, “Kemalism” başlıklı yazısından sonra kaleme aldığı “Kemal'den Sonra” adlı uzun makalesinde, laiklik ve devletçilik ilkelerindeki değişime rağmen, Kemalizm'in daha derinde yatan temeline, “bütünleşmeci milliyetçiliğe” hiç dokunulmadığını vurguluyor. Kanımca, buradan yola çıkarak, laiklik ilkesindeki değişimin Diyanet'in milli bütünleşme ile görevli kılınması biçiminde karşımıza çıktığını görmekteyiz ki burada Kemalizm ile bir karşıtlık değil, bir devamlılık bulunmaktadır. Aynı şey, özelleştirmeci, piyasacı yaklaşımla devletçilik ilişkisi için de geçerlidir. Keza, bütünleşmeci (tekçi) milliyetçiliğin Rum pogromları, Alevi katliamları ve Kürt sorununu yaratan baskı gibi unsurlarla birlikte sürdürüldüğünü de Kemalizm'in devamlılığı olarak tesbit etmemiz gerekiyor. Buna ek olarak, çok parti ile sınıf çatışması arasında ilişki kuran Kemalizm'in tek-partiyi meşrulaştıran yaklaşımı ile çok partili dönemdeki parti kapatmalar, 12 Eylül'ün seçim ve parti mevzuatına “olabildiğince az parti ve koalisyonsuz iktidar” perspektifinden getirdiği yaklaşım ve nihayet bugün aynı yaklaşımın vardığı bir zirve olarak tek adam otoriterliği aynı devamlılık çizgisi içinde yer almaktadır. Bu devamlılığı teşhis, Türkiye'nin daha demokratik bir geleceğe erişebilmesi için elzem olan yeni anayasa tasavvuru için zorunluluktur.

At last we wrap our discussion on Perry Anderson's excellent American Foreign Policy and Its Thinkers with a summary conversation. For those that may be joining the podcast for the first time, this would be a great entry point for understanding Anderson's recent Marxist scholarship, where he has focused on the social, economic and political development of the great and emerging powers of the world. His other books include The New Old World, Brazil Apart and recent studies on Britain (see NLR 125) and the EU (see LRB 17 December 2020 and 7 January 2021). Breaking into a more informal discussion of what we think this work offers activists and writers opposed to US imperialism, we drill into some theoretical issues around the state and society, the role of intellectuals and strategy (uniquely?) in American foreign policy, while also projecting out beyond the book's scope, which was published midway through Obama's second term, into the Trump administration and after. As a segue into the next book under discussion -- Kishore Mahbubani's Has China Won? -- we also tackle some issues around the rise of China as a geopolitical rival to America's global hegemony and what that might mean for the direction of American foreign policy in the near to mid-term. Join us for a more in depth discussion on this topic in Episode 16. Jason King continues to kindly provide the music that you hear in After the 'End of History.' Thanks for listening.

In our eighth episode, we introduce the work and thought of Perry Anderson, the leading intellectual figure behind the New Left Review and author of several modern classics of Marxist political thought. We've chosen to dedicate the next few episodes of the podcast to American Foreign Policy and Its Thinkers to discuss how his historical materialist understanding of the long-term trajectory of capitalism and the interstate system frames his perspective on America's rise to global hegemony. We're joined by our friend Gopal to help draw out the nuances and broader theoretical context of this challenging but rewarding text. Part I includes a brief introduction to Anderson's work, contextualizing American Foreign Policy within his better known works, such as Lineages of the Absolute State and Passages from Antiquity to Feudalism. We also share some thoughts on how his work has impacted our own critical attitudes toward American foreign policy, particularly the "regnant liberalism" that has repeatedly justified imperialist interventions abroad. (See "Arms and Rights" in NLR 31.)Finally, we begin our reconstruction of the book's main topics with a focus on the Preface and Introduction to Imperium, the work's first of two parts (the second being Consilium). Here Anderson lays out what distinguishes his work from other historical scholarship, particularly in its chronological sweep and the interrelation between ("First World") capitalist states both before and after the establishment of American supremacy within the capitalist system.Jason King kindly provides the music that you hear in After the 'End of History.'

With guest Asad Haider, we discuss at length the theoretical polemic of E.P. Thompson against Louis Althusser. What was the historical context for each side of this conflict (in which Althusser never participated directly)? What was Thompson’s critique? Asad argues that Thompson did not understand Althusser correctly, or even provide a satisfactory conceptual account of what was best about his own empirical research. The two, may have been closer to each other than Thompson understood. A humanist, he preferred the young Marx; Althusser, an anti-humanist, argued systematically for the importance of the mature Marx.

A partir de dois relatórios elaborados pela ONG OXFAM em parceria com o DATAFALHA, respectivamente intitulados “País estagnado: um retrato das desigualdades brasileiras-2018” (disponível:https://www.oxfam.org.br/sites/default/files/arquivos/relatorio_desigualdade_2018_pais_estagnado_digital.pdf) e   “Nós e as desigualdades: percepções sobre a desigualdade no Brasil” (https://www.oxfam.org.br/sites/default/files/arquivos/relatorio_nos_e_as_desigualdades_datafolha_2019.pdf0), os quatro odiados, na verdade nesse episódio três, uma vez que o integrante Bruno Malavolta não pôde colaborar com o tempero literário pelo nobre motivo de seu doutoramento, debatem sobre como a desigualdade social historicamente vivida pelo brasileiro produz uma ambivalência desumana, em que 1% do estamento social mais rico do país vive como uma espécie de casta que desfruta privilégios, como acesso à educação de qualidade, saúde, lazer, segurança, parafraseando Engenheiros do Hawaii, sob os muros e as grades que os protegem de quase tudo, e nada lhes protege de uma vida sem sentido.   E diante dessa realidade sem sentido Cássio ressalta, com base na obra "Linhagens do Estado Absolutista" de Perry Anderson, que o Estado Moderno nasce garantindo o domínio da nobreza e da burguesia, (basta lembrar que só pobres pagaram impostos inicialmente) impondo seus interesses à dinâmica da vida em sociedade, vilipendiando os demais estratos sociais. Enquanto Moisés enfatiza dados perturbadores como a percepção de 49 % dos brasileiros que acham que a renda mínima para estar entre os 10% mais ricos é de 20.000 reais mensais, em contraposição com o dado que revela que apenas 1% dos brasileiros possuem renda entre 20 e 30 mil reais, revelando que a concentração de renda é mais absurda do que o cidadão brasileiro consegue perceber. Já Osvaldo traz para o debate uma espécie de “geografia da concentração de renda”, relembrando que em 2010 a Cidade de Goiânia figurou no cenário internacional entre as 10 cidades do mundo com maior concentração de renda.  Assim, nesse episódio os odiados transitam por temas como o avanço das religiões de matriz protestante, que em solo nacional engendram, através da teologia da prosperidade, a ideologia de que pela fé o indivíduo consegue ascender socialmente; passando pelo debate da escolarização/meritocracia, Cássio, Moisés e Osvaldo refletem sobre os 49% dos brasileiros que acreditam na falácia de que ter diploma é garantia de emprego; enfim, ouvindo todo o episódio você perceberá que o fio condutor que vai ligando os assuntos e seus debatedores é a possibilidade do exercício da cidadania em um cenário de profunda concentração de renda, que favorece a formação de uma ínfima casta endinheirada em contraposição a uma classe social miserável em condições de vulnerabilidade, parafraseando Racionais, em que o neguinho vê tudo do lado de fora.   Quer conferir como ficou?

Alla från vänster till höger kastar ordet "hegemoni" omkring sig. Men vad betyder det egentligen? Elin Grelsson Almestad gräver i H-ordets historia. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Liberalernas trånga ensidiga hegemoni skapar mer problem än den löser, skriver socialistiska Internationalen medan Lars Anders Johansson, i  tankesmedjan Timbros nättidning Smedjan konstaterar att den svenska likhetskulturen syns i den  modernistiska hegemoni som varit rådande inom svensk arkitektur och stadsplanering sedan slutet av 1930-talet. I riksdagen råder en nyliberal hegemoni, förklarar Rättvisepartiet Socialisterna medan Mats Blomberg skriver i tidningen Fokus om hur borgarna 1976 lyckades bryta vänsterns hegemoni. Samtliga exempel är hämtade från ett par veckor i svenska medier. Hegemoni är ordet på allas läppar. Ja, i alla fall om man ser till hur det har spridit sig under de senaste decennierna från att främst ha hört hemma i universitetsmiljöer och akademiska diskussioner till att nu florera på allt från feministiskaworkshops till ledarsidor av alla politiska färger. En sökning i mediearkivet Retriever visar hur begreppet endast omnämndes ett fåtal gånger per år i dagspressen under 1990-talet för att sedan stadigt öka. Knappt ett par decennier in på tjugohundratalet förekom begreppet med marginal över 500 gånger per år i sportsammanhang, ledartexter och kulturanalyser. Det förekommer förstås också i publikationer som inte registreras i något mediearkiv, mer ljusskygga sajter som talar om etablissemangsmedias hegemoni. Ja, detta luddiga begrepp används av alla politiska läger och i skilda syften. Men vad betyder det egentligen? 2017 utkom historikern och sociologen Perry Anderson med boken The H-word som går till botten med hegemonins idéhistoria, utifrån en liknande iakttagelse kring begreppets utbredning. I snitt ges det ut en engelskspråkig titel i månaden med ordet hegemoni i. Anderson återvänder till begreppets ursprung grekiskans hegemonia som betyder ledning eller ledarskap. Härifrån kommer den geopolitiska betydelsen av hegemoni där en eller ett flertal svagare stater underkastar sig en starkare stat frivilligt, i syfte att erhålla internationellt erkännande, beskydd eller ekonomiskt bistånd. I Grekland var det Sparta och Aten som skapade sig hegemoniska särställningar där andra stater underkastade sig dem i utbyte mot beskydd. Aristoteles beskrev systemet som att de båda hegemoniska staterna i Grekland tog sin respektive styrandeform som standard och ålade dem på andra städer, i ett fall demokrati och i ett annat fall oligarki, fram tills att det hade blivit en fast vana hos befolkningen i resten av städerna att inte ens önska jämlikhet utan endast välja mellan att regera eller att uthärda underkastelsen. Ungefär så fungerar hegemoni, oavsett i vilket sammanhang den uppstår. Det verkar de flesta vara överens om. Hegemonin döljer med andra ord de politiska dimensionerna genom att få det att framstå som objektivt Efter Grekland och Aristoteles faller begreppet mer eller mindre i glömska fram till mitten av 1800-talet, då det återkommer i diskussioner och analyser kring Preussen och kejsardömets särställning innan det landar hos revolutionärerna i Ryssland. Här handlade det inte längre om relationen mellan stater, utan om relationen mellan klasser inom en och samma stat där Lenin använde sig av hegemoni som en fokuserad social strategi; att ena alla grupper som allierade under proletariatets diktatur, inte minst den stora majoriteten bönder. Det var också genom denna definition av hegemoni som den italienska kommunistledaren Antonio Gramsci kom i kontakt med begreppet under 1920-talet. 1926 dömdes Gramsci till 20 års fängelse av Mussolini-regimen och började under fängelsevistelsen att nedteckna sina tankar om samhället, totalt 29 anteckningsböcker där han bland annat utvecklade teorin kring kulturell hegemoni. Begreppet beskriver hur en styrande klass kan dominera genom kulturen i samhället dess vanor, beteenden, upplevelser och värderingar så att den styrande klassens sätt att leva och livsåskådning blir normerande och gör att det politiska, sociala och ekonomiska tillståndet i samhället framstår som naturligt och oundvikligt. Hegemonin döljer med andra ord de politiska dimensionerna genom att få det att framstå som objektivt. Det ska dröja till 1970-talet, långt efter Gramscis död, innan fängelseskrifterna trycks och sprids i både Italien och andra länder. Den kulturella hegemonin blir från och med då ett nyckelbegrepp för att beskriva nyliberalismen, borgerlighetens makt i samhället och hur kapitalismen närmast betraktas som en naturlag. Även inom genusvetenskapen plockas begreppet upp för att beskriva så kallad hegemonisk maskulinitet. De beteenden som den hegemoniska maskuliniteten innehar ses som naturliga, vanliga och positiva, men är också en idealbild som ingen kan leva upp till. Det närmaste män kan komma är delaktighet, det vill säga man delar den hegemoniska manlighetens ideal, även om man inte kan leva upp till den fullt ut. Genom att eftersträva hegemonin och på så vis stödja idealet, åtvinner männen de fördelar som den hegemoniska maskuliniteten tilldelas. I samband med #metoo aktualiserades den analysen, kring frågeställningar hur vissa beteenden kan ursäktas och till och med legitimeras.  Likaså återkommer begreppet i den återkommande frågan om en manlighet i kris. Vad sker med den enskilda mannen när hegemonin förändras från den starka, industriarbetande familjeförsörjaren till den emotionellt tillgängliga mannen vars partner tjänar mer? Vad händer med de män som känner sig vilsna och omsprungna, eftersom hegemonin kräver någonting annat av dem nu? Så vad talar vi egentligen om idag när vi talar om hegemoni? Den hegemoniska maskuliniteten, liksom den marxistiska kulturella hegemonin är bara några av de begrepp som ordet återkommer i. Hegemoni används också för att exempelvis att kritisera journalisters påstådda mörkning om invandringens effekter eller påvisa hur så kallad etablissemangsmedia vägrar berätta om chemtrails på himlen. Det är sannolikt en naturlig följd av ett samhälle som de senaste decennierna förvandlats till ett informations- och påverkanssamhälle, där alltfler röster vill göra sig hörda, liksom ett samhälle där tilltron till auktoriteter minskat och alla kan skapa sig sina egna sanningar. Hegemoni upprätthålls, enligt Gramsci, genom att de intellektuella på olika sätt företräder den styrande klassens intressen och förklarar sakernas tillstånd för undersåtarna på ett sådant sätt att de upplever de maktförhållanden som råder som självklara och därför självmant ger sitt samtycke till att låta sig styras. En formulering som idag lika gärna kunde vara hämtad från Flashback forum eller en antivaccinationssajt. Det finns ju i själva verket också något gott i att vissa hegemonier exempelvis hur vi talar om Förintelsen eller att vaccination gynnar både individ och folkhälsa faktiskt har etablerats. Samtidigt är andra hegemonier, som tron på evig utveckling på en jord med begränsade naturresurser, fortfarande starka fastän all forskning pekar på att vi är på väg mot en klimatkatastrof. Det finns med andra ord anledning att tro att såväl Aristoteles som Gramsci vänder sig i sina gravar när de ser hegemonibegreppets slängiga användning i alla former av svensk debatt, men det är ett symtom på tiden vi lever i. Makten är mer differentierad, rösterna är fler. Hegemoniordet är idag allas och samtidigt ingens alls. Elin Grelsson Almestad, författare och skribent   Litteratur Perry Anderson: The H-word.

Drama, chaos and ineffective patterns will not get you the life you really desire. Let others deal with their own life and their drama that has a life and energy of its own. Create your own life with the power and strength that is already inside of you. It may be hidden, but we all have our unique personal strengths that can power our lives in a new amazing way. The best way to help others is to be the example of how to live, love and grow into your new life. Life is too short to do it any other way. - Perry Anderson

Fala pessoal do GizCast! Voltando à normalidade aqui no Quem Foi?!, Gabriel Bonz (@_gabrielbonz) inicia aqui a série “O Contrato Social” dentro do QF?!. Nessa série, buscaremos desenvolver as teorias do contrato social colocadas dentro da história da filosofia política e iniciamos com um conceito fundamental pra entender a formação do Estado moderno: a concepção que o historiador marxista Perry Anderson (1938) tem desse momento de “passagem” da época feudal para a época moderna. Lembrando que qualquer dúvida, sugestão, indicação de convidado, é, não só bem vinda, como necessária. Para entrar em contato nos procure no Facebook, no Twitter ou no e-mail.

Referência do início do programa: “Os senhores que permaneceram proprietários dos meios de produção fundamentais em qualquer sociedade pré-industrial eram, certamente, os nobres terratenentes. Durante toda a fase inicial da época moderna, a classe dominante – econômica e politicamente – era, portanto, a mesma da época medieval: a aristocracia feudal. Essa nobreza passou por profundas metamorfoses nos séculos que se seguiram ao fim da Idade Média: mas desde o princípio até o final da história do absolutismo nunca foi desalojada de seu domínio do poder político. As alterações nas formas de exploração feudal sobrevindas no final da época medieval estavam, naturalmente, longe de serem insignificantes. Na verdade, foram precisamente essas mudanças que modificaram as formas do Estado. Essencialmente, o absolutismo era apenas isto: um aparelho de dominação feudal recolocado e reforçado, destinado a sujeitar as massas camponesas à sua posição social tradicional.” (ANDERSON, Perry. Linhagens do Estado Absolutista. São Paulo: Brasiliense, 2004, pp. 18). #GizCastAcessível: A capa tem uma foto em preto e branco do rosto de Perry Anderson, um homem sério que parece estar falando, e tem um óculos de armação grossa e preta. Está escrito em fonte Times New Roman maior “QUEM IX FOI?!” e, embaixo, “Estado Absolutista” para Perry Anderson. Ao redor da capa há uma simulação de moldura dourada.

Recorded at the Battle of Ideas 2016 In 2013, historian Perry Anderson observed that it is axiomatic for US foreign policy advisors that, ‘the hegemony of the United States continues to serve both the particular interests of the nation and the universal interests of humanity’. But troubled is the head that wears the crown of world domination. The US establishment is worried by the threat of domestic disorder, terrorist outrages and the rising powers in the East, notably China. It is also concerned by a range of social and economic problems: rising inequality, a failing school system, the burden of health care and obsolete infrastructure. Furthermore, ‘energy is wasted, R&D is insufficient, labour is under-skilled, finance is under-regulated, entitlements are out of control, the budget is in the red, the political system is overly polarised’. The current presidential election campaign confirms that elite confidence in US hegemony is not shared by substantial sections of the electorate. The rise of Donald Trump symbolises the scale of popular disaffection. According to Colombia historian Mark Mazower, his success – in parallel with populist politicians in Europe – confirms that ‘nationalism is back like it never went away’. Trump is riding ‘a populist insurgency’ seeking to restore the USA to its ‘rightful place in the world’. Trump appeals to widespread discontent over the impact of global economic forces, causing increasing inequality and insecurity, particularly in blue-collar communities. Trump’s nationalist revival has an angry and defensive tone. It stands in stark contrast to the vision of John Winthrop’s Puritan evangelicals who, sought to build in Massachusetts Bay a ‘city on a hill’, an ideal society in the New World as an example to the Old. As the late Benedict Anderson observed, the spirit of nationalism forged in the American Revolution, based on ‘an imagined political community’ of creole pioneers, provided a model for nationalist movements – first in Europe, and subsequently throughout the colonial world. But, whereas the nationalist spirit of the founding fathers had a unifying and democratic character, that of Trump, with its anti-immigrant, anti-Hispanic and anti-Muslim tropes, seems divisive and reactionary. Can America’s overwhelming military might continue to compensate for its chronic economic stagnation? Can the USA’s global cultural influence help it to hold off the competition of the rising powers of East Asia? Can any political alternative overcome the exhaustion and paralysis that appears to have overtaken the American system under the presidency of Barack Obama? speakers Professor Sarah Churchwell chair of Public Understanding of the Humanities; Professor of American literature, School of Advanced study, University of London Dolan Cummings associate fellow, Institute of Ideas; author, That Existential Leap: a crime story (forthcoming from Zero Books) Alex Deane managing director, FTI Consulting; Sky News regular; BBC Dateline London panellist; author Big Brother Watch: The state of civil liberties in modern Britain Michael Goldfarb journalist and historian, FRDH Podcast Dr Kwasi Kwarteng Conservative member of parliament for Spelthorne; historian; author, Ghosts of Empire and War & Gold Chair Dr Cheryl Hudson lecturer in American history, University of Liverpool

SMJ #16 – Pra que serve Direito Romano? Toda disciplina possui seu mito fundador, e como bom mito, é preciso que seja problematizado. A matemática tem Euclides, a física moderna tem Newton, a química Lavoisier, a história Heródoto, e o direito, por sua vez, foi recolher entre os romanos antigos a origem heroica de toda uma tradição. Mas será que o nosso direito contemporâneo tem alguma relação com o direito romano como muitos querem fazer crer? Afinal, porque se fala tanto de direito romano? O que uma tradição de mais de dois mil anos tem a nos ensinar hoje, com todos nossos problemas e questionamentos que nada lembram os de antigamente? Em uma expressão: pra que serve Direito Romano? Para compreender estas e outras questões relativas a história de Roma e do direito antigo, o Salvo Melhor Juízo trouxe para sua bancada dois especialistas no tema: Walter Guandalini Jr.* e João Paulo Arrosi**.
