Estudio verso a Verso del Libro de Proverbios

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. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature. YouTube Channel. Twitter.

Why is our society so unequal? Why, despite their small numbers, do the rich dominate policy and politics even in democratic countries? Why is it so difficult for working people to organize around common interests? How do we begin to build a more equal and democratic society? In Confronting Capitalism: How the World Works and How to Change It (Verso, 2022), Vivek Chibber provides a clear and accessible map of how capitalism works, how it limits the power of working and oppressed people, and how to overcome those limits. The capitalist economy generates incredible wealth but also injustice. Those who own the factories, hotels, and farms always have an advantage over the people who rely on that ownership class for their livelihoods. This inequality in power and income is reflected in the operation of the state, where capitalists are able to exert their will even under relatively democratic conditions. The most important reason is that states depend on the employment and profits from capitalist enterprise for both finances and legitimacy. Every meaningful victory for working people has been won through collective struggle but collective action is very difficult to coordinate. In the final section of the book, Chibber walks the reader through some of the historical attempts to build socialism and presents a vision of how we might, perhaps against the odds, build a socialist future.

Hello from Jay's trick-or-treating route! This week, Jay listened to hours of affirmative-action arguments from the Supreme Court so that you (and we) didn't have to. He recounts Ketanji Brown Jackson's sharp line of questioning and lays out the progressives' Catch-22. Does a third path reveal itself if we deny Harvard and its peers their institutional, “meritocratic” power? Is it true that Asian Americans are actually given a leg up in some academic environments? Next, we hear from Tammy, in Korea, following the horrific crowd crush that killed more than 150 people in Seoul's Itaewon neighborhood over Halloween weekend. We discuss the role of government negligence and the rage and grief reminiscent of the Sewol ferry disaster. Tammy explains what makes Itaewon such a special neighborhood, especially for young people and minorities in Seoul. What will it represent going forward? Finally, we honor the great people's historian Mike Davis, who died on October 25. We revisit his classic, “Fortress L.A.,” which appears as Chapter 4 in City of Quartz (currently available as a free Ebook from Verso or, if you prefer to listen, as an audiobook through your local library on Libby.) We also discuss his more recent pieces on foreign policy and organizing, and the huge gap that he and the late Barbara Ehrenreich leave behind. We'll continue to learn from Mike and follow his advice to take to the streets. If you missed our early episode with Mike, you can listen here or read the transcript.Join us on December 1, in NYC, for our TTSG + Hua Hsu live recording at NYU! It's free and in a large theatre, so bring your friends and fam. RSVP here! If you want to support our show, you can subscribe via Patreon or Substack and follow us on Twitter.

Aumento intorno al 5% in arrivo per le bollette del gas di ottobre anziché del 70% come previsto un mese fa. A dirlo è il presidente di Nomisma energia, Davide Tabarelli, interpellato dall' agenzia Ansa in vista, giovedì prossimo, della comunicazione della tariffa per le famiglie del mercato tutelato. Da questo mese l'aggiornamento tariffario diventa mensile anziché trimestrale e "se l'aggiornamento fosse stato fatto con il vecchio meccanismo a fine settembre avremmo avuto un aumento anche del 200%" rileva Tabarelli. "Quando hanno fatto la modifica dell'aggiornamento (non più trimestrale) ai primi di ottobre - ha spiegato il presidente di Nomisma - hanno detto che con il nuovo meccanismo ci sarebbe stato un aumento del 70%, perché c'era già un po' di calo del prezzo del gas. Ma ora ci sono tutti i prezzi fino alla fine di ottobre e stimiamo una variazione del +5%". "Le disposizioni per il gas" cioè l'aggiornamento mensile anziché trimestrale della tariffa, conclude Tabarelli "teoricamente si potrebbero applicare anche all'elettricità, peccato che non è stato fatto; se l'avessimo fatto per la luce avremmo già avuto dei cali in bolletta invece dobbiamo aspettare gennaio e sperare che siano sempre bassi i prezzi. Ne parliamo proprio con Davide Tabarelli, Presidente di Nomisma EnergiaIl vino made in Italy non ferma la sua corsa ma deve fare i conti con caro-energia, guerra e siccità Nel primo semestre il settore del vino ha fatto registrare un aumento dell'export a 3,8 miliardi di euro, il 14% in più sul 2021, che già era stato un anno di forte ripresa dopo la fase acuta della pandemia. E nel 2022, secondo TradeLab il mercato dei consumi fuori casa legati ai servizi food & beverage dovrebbe far segnare un +2%, toccando quota 87 miliardi, superando gli 85 miliardi toccati nel 2019 (pre-covid). Di contro i produttori devono fare i conti con diversi problemi come caro-energia, guerra e siccità. Solo per quanto riguarda le bollette i rincari si attestano tra il 150 e il 200% con aumenti che interessano le materie prime necessarie per il packaging, come carta, cartone, etichette e vetro. Approfondiamo il tema con Ettore Nicoletto, vicepresidente del Consiglio del Gruppo Vini di Federvini.Twitter, Musk silura il cda: ora è solo al comando. Intanto tutte le Big Tech fanno i conti con una crisi profonda Elon Musk, riporta il Wall Street Journal, ha sciolto il consiglio di amministrazione di Twitter: l imprenditore sarà amministratore unico ed è al lavoro per far pagare agli utenti la spunta blu che indica lo status di account verificato. La sua prima mossa da capo, adesso, potrebbe essere nel segno dei licenziamenti. Proprio oggi entra in vigore il Digital Market Act (Dma), il nuovo regolamento della Ue per combattere le pratiche di mercato sleali e le distorsioni della concorrenza da parte delle Big Tech. A proposito di Big Tech, a guardare i dati finanziari emerge un sell off pesantissimo, guidato dal crollo di Meta. Lo dicono i numeri: nell'ultimo anno il titolo di Amazon ha perso il 38,67%, quello di Alphabet il 34,96%, quello di Microsoft il 28,87%. E poi c'è il crollo verticale di Meta, che un anno fa prendeva il posto di Facebook: -69,34% negli ultimi dodici mesi. Approfondiamo il tema con Alessandro Plateroti, direttore di Notizie.it.Pil: terzo trimestre a sorpresa +0,5%. Crescita acquisita 2022 su al 3,9% L'attesa era già circolata nei giorni scorsi, ma la stima preliminare del Pil del terzo trimestre diffusa dall'Istat è andata oltre le aspettative: si temeva l avvio della recessione tecnica, è invece è arrivato il settimo trimestre consecutivo in positivo. E non di poco: fra luglio e settembre l'economia italiana è cresciuta dello 0,5%, portando la crescita acquisita nel 2022 a +3,9%. Il risultato finale, e soprattutto il trascinamento sul prossimo anno, dipenderanno dai risultati del quarto trimestre: ma il nuovo dato rafforza l'andamento di un anno, il 2022, che già aveva dato soddisfazioni.A spingere la produzione estiva sono stati soprattutto i servizi, probabilmente grazie in particolare all'effetto propulsivo di un turismo che ha registrato numeri da tutto esaurito (i dettagli sulle componenti del Pil saranno analizzati dall'Istat con la stima definitiva). Approfondiamo il tema con Lorenzo Codogno, visiting professor della London School of Economics ed ex dirigente generale del Mef.

In this episode of High Theory, Leigh Claire La Berge talks about red cats: communist cats, revolutionary tigers, radical felines of all stripes. The red cat is a provocation, and an invitation to think differently about economic history. Leigh Claire continues our spooky theory of cat concepts for Halloween 2022. Her book Marx for Cats: A Radical Bestiary will be published by Duke University Press this coming summer. It takes seriously the premise that you can tell the history of capitalism through the figure of the cat. As a bestiary, it has a hundred pictures of cats, from a vast archive that spans the ninth century to the present. It began as a series of filmed conversations with cats on Marxist theory. You can watch them at marxforcats.com In the episode she references The Social Contract by Jean Jacques Rousseau. Each of the two cover images from the initial publication depict cats. One of them forms the cover image for this episode. In the longer conversation, she referenced Kate Evans's Red Rosa: A Graphic Biography of Rosa Luxemburg (Verso 2015) and Drew Pendergrass and Troy Vettese's Half-Earth Socialism: A Plan to Save the Future from Extinction, Climate Change and Pandemics (Verso, 2022). Leigh Claire La Berge is an Associate Professor of English at BMCC CUNY, where she studies the intersection of contemporary cultural production and economic forms. Her prior books include Scandals and Abstraction: Financial Fiction of the Long 1980s (Oxford, 2014) and Wages Against Artwork: Decommodified Labor and the Claims of Socially Engaged Art (Duke, 2019).

The science on climate change has been clear for a very long time now. Yet despite decades of appeals, mass street protests, petition campaigns, and peaceful demonstrations, we are still facing a booming fossil fuel industry, rising seas, rising emission levels, and a rising temperature. With the stakes so high, why haven't we moved beyond peaceful protest? Offering a counter-history of how mass popular change has occurred, from the democratic revolutions overthrowing dictators to the movement against apartheid and for women's suffrage, Malm argues that the strategic acceptance of property destruction and violence has been the only route for revolutionary change. In How to Blow Up a Pipeline (Verso, 2021), Malm offers us an incisive discussion of the politics and ethics of pacifism and violence, democracy and social change, strategy and tactics, and a movement compelled by both the heart and the mind. Here is how we fight in a world on fire. Jimena Ledgard is a journalist, writer and researcher from Lima, Peru.

This is a segment of episode 332 of Last Born In The Wilderness “Surplus Manifesto: Health Communism; Life & Death Under Capitalism w/ Beatrice Adler-Bolton.” Listen to the full interview: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/beatrice-adler-bolton-2 Order a copy of Health Communism from Verso, or from Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3TlQOoH / https://bit.ly/35Zby2d Death Panel co-host and disability justice advocate Beatrice Adler-Bolton returns to the podcast to discuss their new book 'Health Communism: A Surplus Manifesto,' co-authored with Artie Vierkant and published through Verso Books. 'Health Communism' “offers an overview of life and death under capitalism and argues for a new global left politics aimed at severing the ties between capital and one of its primary tools: health.” Throughout the full 90 minute interview, Beatrice and I build on our last discussion in March (during which we discussed the “sociological production of the end of the pandemic”), incorporating concepts outlined in 'Health Communism.' Key among those are defining the “surplus” class or population(s), in which, under the economic valuation of life under capitalism, whole populations are relegated to a regime of “extractive abandonment” — “the process by which these populations are made profitable to capital”, and a “means by which the state constructs “health” culturally, politically, and institutionally.” 'Health Communism' is a call to arms; a manifesto for those deemed “surplus” under the political economy of global capitalism. It is a history lesson, drawing on the social, economic, and political forces throughout the development of capitalism and the modern nation-state to commodify health, care, illness, and disability. Along with outlining the concepts and forces that have defined who is “deserving” of care under this regime, Beatrice and Artie draw on potent and revolutionary struggles that provide vital lessons in realizing health communism and “a radical politics of solidarity.” Because, “it is,” as they state, “not necessarily the case that we are all sick. But none of us is well.” Beatrice Adler-Bolton is a blind/low vision and chronically ill artist, writer, and disability justice advocate. Beatrice studies radical patient groups and the capitalist political economy of health as an independent researcher and is earning a master's in Disability Studies at CUNY. She is the co-host of the Death Panel podcast with Artie Vierkant and Phil Rocco. Beatrice's first book, called 'Health Communism: A surplus manifesto,' co-authored with Artie Vierkant, will be published by Verso Books in the US and UK in October 2022.

Destiny is a streamer and a YouTuber. As the mainstream media abandons talking to anyone male in a reasonable manner, men's advice has been pushed underground. It's good to have someone helping men to become better people, friends and partners for women, but what are the errors in this new wave of advice? Expect to learn whether cancellation actually makes creators grow  bigger or if that's just a cope, whether the Red Pill movement is a net benefit for men, why the Right seems to have dominated men's advice for the last few years, whether women and men can actually be compatriots instead of adversaries, why the Hasan Abi drama lore is lengthy and much more...

Estudio Verso a Verso del Libro de Proverbios

Death Panel co-host and disability justice advocate Beatrice Adler-Bolton returns to the podcast to discuss their new book 'Health Communism: A Surplus Manifesto,' co-authored with Artie Vierkant and published through Verso Books. 'Health Communism' “offers an overview of life and death under capitalism and argues for a new global left politics aimed at severing the ties between capital and one of its primary tools: health.” Throughout this 90 minute interview, Beatrice and I build on our last discussion in March (during which we discussed the “sociological production of the end of the pandemic”), incorporating concepts outlined in 'Health Communism.' Key among those are defining the “surplus” class or population(s), in which, under the economic valuation of life under capitalism, whole populations are relegated to a regime of “extractive abandonment” — “the process by which these populations are made profitable to capital”, and a “means by which the state constructs “health” culturally, politically, and institutionally.” 'Health Communism' is a call to arms; a manifesto for those deemed “surplus” under the political economy of global capitalism. It is a history lesson, drawing on the social, economic, and political forces throughout the development of capitalism and the modern nation-state to commodify health, care, illness, and disability. Along with outlining the concepts and forces that have defined who is “deserving” of care under this regime, Beatrice and Artie draw on potent and revolutionary struggles that provide vital lessons in realizing health communism and “a radical politics of solidarity.” Because, “it is,” as they state, “not necessarily the case that we are all sick. But none of us is well.” Beatrice Adler-Bolton is a blind/low vision and chronically ill artist, writer, and disability justice advocate. Beatrice studies radical patient groups and the capitalist political economy of health as an independent researcher and is earning a master's in Disability Studies at CUNY. She is the co-host of the Death Panel podcast with Artie Vierkant and Phil Rocco. Beatrice's first book, called 'Health Communism: A surplus manifesto,' co-authored with Artie Vierkant, will be published by Verso Books in the US and UK in October 2022.

Richard V. Reeves is a writer, scholar and a Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution. Men are falling behind in education, employment and family life. They're underachieving in school, dropping out of the labour market and being less useful around the house more than ever. And this isn't simply cultural as it's happening all over the world, the problem is deeper than that - it's structural. Expect to learn why there are twice as many female fighter pilots compared with male kindergarten teachers, why a male needs to be 24 to have the same impulse control as a 10 year old girl, where the term toxic masculinity actually came from, whether a man's gain is actually woman's loss, the problem of promoting men's issues in the press and much more...

A Critical Theory of Police Power: The Fabrication of Social Order (Verso, 2021) offers a critical look at policing and the power of the state, examining the relationship between our ideas of order and wider social and political issues. First published in 2000, this new edition of Mark Neocleous' influential book features a new introduction which helpfully situates this ever-relevant text in the context of contemporary struggles over police and policing. Neocleous argues for an expanded concept of police, able to account for the range of institutions through which policing takes place. These institutions are concerned not just with the maintenance and reproduction of order, but with its very fabrication, especially the fabrication of a social order founded on wage labour. By situating the police power in relation to both capital and the state and at the heart of the politics of security, the book opens up into an understanding of the ways in which the state administers civil society and fabricates order through law and the ideology of crime. The discretionary violence of the police on the street is thereby connected to the wider administrative powers of the state, and the thud of the truncheon to the dull compulsion of economic relations. Content warning: the last 2 minutes of the interview include a brief discussion of Mark's current work on suicide. Listeners who enjoyed this interview may enjoy my recent interviews with Mark on his most recent book The Politics of Immunity, with undercover police ("Spycop") victims Helen Steel and Alison about Deep Deception, and with counterterrorism scholar Rizwaan Sabir about The Suspect. Mark Neocleous is Professor of the Critique of Political Economy at Brunel University in London, and is well-known for his work on police power and security. His recent books include The Universal Adversary: Security, Capital and 'The Enemies of All Mankind' (2016); War Power, Police Power (2014); and the newly-reissued A Critical Theory of Police Power: The Fabrication of Social Order (2021).

Sophie Lewis returns to This Is Hell on Tuesday, October 4th to speak with host Chuck Mertz about her new book, Abolish the Family, out on Verso, October 2022. Sophie Lewis is the author of Full Surrogacy Now: Feminism Against Family (Verso, 2019), hailed by Donna Haraway as “the seriously radical cry for full gestational justice that I long for.” Abolish the Family: A Manifesto for Care and Liberation (Verso, 2022) is her second book. As a member of the faculty of Brooklyn Institute for Social Research, Sophie teaches courses on feminist, trans and queer politics and philosophy, including family abolitionism, Shulamith Firestone, and Kathi Weeks. With the Out of the Woods writing collective, Lewis contributed to the collection Hope Against Hope: Writings on Ecological Crisis (Common Notions, 2020). With Blind Field Journal, she has helped foster communities of Marxist-feminist cultural criticism. Previously, Dr. Lewis studied English Literature (BA) and Nature, Society and Environmental Policy (MSc) at Oxford University; Politics (MA) at the New School for Social Research; and Geography (PhD) at Manchester University. Her doctoral dissertation, “Cyborg Labor: Exploring Surrogacy as Gestational Work,” sought to reframe the political economy of contract pregnancy for the purposes of an antiwork polymaternalist utopianism. Sophie's essays and commentaries appear in venues such as n+1, Boston Review, The Nation, The Baffler, Mal, e-flux, the New York Times and London Review of Books; her papers appear in, e.g., Signs, Paragraph, and Feminist Theory. A Visiting Scholar at the University of Pennsylvania's Center for Research on Feminist, Queer and Transgender Studies, Sophie is nevertheless a freelance writer dependent on public speaking and Patreon (patreon.com/reproutopia). Her lectures are archived at lasophielle.org.

Why slavery? Marxist scholar Adolph Reed argues that Jim Crow — not enslavement — is the defining experience for Black Americans today. Reed recounts his childhood in the segregation-era South in his book The South: Jim Crow and Its Afterlives. Fabiola speaks with Reed about his experience, his argument that reparations aren't necessarily a healing balm, and what policies and resources are needed to create a more equitable society.

Questa settimana continuiamo la seconda parte dell'intervista a Marco Marlia, Co-founder e CEO di MotorK. Se vi siete persi la prima parte, andate ad ascoltare l'episodio 81 dove Marco ci racconta i primi passi della sua scalata verso il successo. Nella prima parte dell'intervista abbiamo esplorato il background di Marco e la nascita di MotorK, al tempo DriveK, mentre muoveva i suoi primi tumultuosi passi. Nell'episodio di questa settimana riprendiamo il racconto nel momento in cui la startup dovrà fare un pivot per continuare il suo percorso di crescita. Ma la strada verso il successo non è mai di discesa. In ogni fase del suo percorso, MotorK dovrà affrontare sfide sempre nuove, schivando il fallimento ad ogni curva. Marco, con grande sincerità, condivide con noi i momenti più difficili e assurdi della sua avventura che lo porterà fino alla quotazione in borsa di MotorK. Dietro al meritato successo di Marco non ci sono solo serendipity e fortuna, ma tanto duro lavoro e la capacità di cambiare insieme alla propria impresa. -- SPONSORS ShippyPro sta rivoluzionando il settore shipping con una tecnologia che permette a tutti gli e-commerce, anche quelli più piccoli, di offrire un'esperienza di spedizione pari a colossi come Amazon o Zalando.

Dr Stuart Ritchie is a psychologist and science communicator known for his research in human intelligence and an author. The influence of our genes on the outcomes we get in life has been long established and replicated in science. However the public response to this has been very unhappy, making Behavioural Genetics one of the most heated areas of research there is. Expect to learn why some people dislike behavioural genetics so much, what happened with the recent SSRI rug pull, whether Emotional Intelligence is an actual thing, how to be skeptical without becoming nihilistic, which psychological phenomenon were debunked during the replication crisis and much more...

For part 2, we speak with Dr. Charisse Burden-Stelly & Dr. Jodi Dean about their edited volume, "Organize, Fight, Win: Black Communist Women's Political Writing." We discuss the writings of Grace Campbell, Williana Burroughs, Maude White, Thyra J. Edwards, Ella Baker, Marvel Cooke, Louise Thompson, Marvel Cooke, Claudia Jones, Lorraine Hansberry. We analyze the select writings of Black communist women to further demystify Marxism by focusing on their day-to-day organizing. What is revealed is how they used Marxism (many within the Communist Party of the United States) to address the day-to-day material conditions of Black people including labor organizing, defense campaigns, International solidarity, and much more. Dr. CBS and Dr. Dean do a tremendous job of helping us understand just how essential black communist women were to the foundation of CPUSA and the push for Black Freedom throughout the 20th century. Pre-order the book: https://www.versobooks.com/books/4071-organize-fight-win Charisse Burden-Stelly: Associate Professor in the Department of African American Studies at Wayne State University. She is the author, with Gerald Horne, of W. E. B. Du Bois: A Life in American History and the forthcoming book Black Scare/Red Scare. Jodi Dean: teaches political, feminist, and media theory in Geneva, New York. She has written or edited thirteen books, including The Communist Horizon and Crowds and Party, and Comrade: An essay on political belonging, all published by Verso.

On Brazil's containment of the crisis. We talk to members of the Unbridled Possibility Collective (Fabio Luis B. Santos | Thais Pavez | Daniel Cunha) about their intervention, trying to look beyond this week's election in Brazil. What does establishment support for Lula this time round represent? Is Lula guilty of "unrealistic pragmatism"? How will Brazil react to a potential coup attempt by Bolsonaro?  And we look at the deeper social and structural context: what are the features of the Brazilian "war of all against all"? How does Bolsonaro accelerate these tendencies? We conclude by looking at the possibility of a new 'Pink Wave' in Latin America and examining the state of the Brazilian left.  Readings: After the Election: a Contribution to the Debate, Unbridled Possibility Collective, Damage /189/ Pink Tide Paradoxes ft.

Expect to learn why Charles Darwin made a checklist before marriage which said his wife was slightly better than a dog, why the decision about whether to have children is so difficult to predict, whether rationality is totally incompatible with the decisions that define us, why happiness is overrated as an optimising function, whether tradition is any use and much more...

Why slavery? Marxist scholar Adolph Reed argues that Jim Crow — not enslavement — is the defining experience for Black Americans today. Reed recounts his childhood in the segregation-era South in his book The South: Jim Crow and Its Afterlives. Fabiola speaks with Reed about his experience, his argument that reparations aren't necessarily a healing balm, and what policies and resources are needed to create a more equitable society.
