The enormity, complexity and fall-out of the Syrian war calls for urgent attention. Current events in Aleppo bring to the fore the unreliability of information and dichotomous political positions that contribute to obstruction and paralysis in the antiwar movement. Continue Reading…

… Menschwerdung auf Malta – ein vidéo auf YouTube, 60.31 min, von Quer-denken.tv, Nov 6, 2016 … Goran M. Bojic im Gespräch mit Michael Friedrich Vogt. Ein unwirklich anmutender Status bedroht uns alle, das Verständnis darüber warum wir vor Gericht (und nicht nur da) als „Sachen“ (Rechtlos) bezeichnet und auch so gesehen werden, wird immer klarer von der Öffentlichkeit wahrgenommen. Noch unglaublicher ist die Tatsache, daß wir alle in diesem Status „freiwillig“ stehen, denn es gibt Auswege, diese werden aber nur zaghaft genutzt. Das fehlende Verständnis und das verschleierte Wissen machen es den Suchenden nicht einfach, aber es gibt (wie immer im Leben) einen Ausweg und eine Lösung. Genau dieser Lösung widmen sich Goran M. Bojic im Gespräch mit Michael Friedrich Vogt … (ganzer Text); Goran M. Bojic siehe auch auf Google Web-search).

Published on Dissident Voice, by James Petras, Dec 28, 2016.

A coup has been underway to prevent President-Elect Donald Trump from taking office and fulfilling his campaign promise to improve US-Russia relations. This ‘palace coup’ is not a secret conspiracy, but an open, loud attack on the election. The coup involves important US elites, who openly intervene on many levels from the street to the current President, from sectors of the intelligence community, billionaire financiers out to the more marginal ‘leftist’ shills of the Democratic Party.   Continue Reading…

Over the past decade, Bolivia has managed some extraordinary achievements, for instance becoming the first country in the world to reach the UN Sustainable Development Goals in terms of access to water.

Chan School of Public Health.

Twenty five years ago the dramatic contest between the Soviet socialist system and Western capitalism reached its tumultuous end. Much has been written since about the failings of the Soviet state socialist model. But much less has been written about how the global “triumph” of capitalism has made extreme inequality and climate change worse. Even less still has been written about the possibility of an alternative to either system. Continue Reading…

… Most of the coverage has centered around Aleppo, and the mainstream Aleppo narrative has been, it was besieged by the brutal dictator, who wanted to slaughter all the residents of Aleppo. The fact is, Aleppo is divided into two parts and has been for four years. West Aleppo is controlled by the Syrian government, and East Aleppo was captured, and has been held by terrorists and thugs for the past four years. Residents of East Aleppo have not been allowed to leave, and have been shot in the streets for trying. Continue Reading…

Published on The Bullet, Socialist Project’s E-Bulletin No 1341, Himani Bannerji interviewed by Mahdi Ganjavi, Dec 15, 2016.

Mahdi Ganjavi (MG): You are among the philosophers and social critics who have written extensively on the concept of ideology. In your article “Ideology”,[1] by means of a close reading of Marx and Engels’ The German Ideology, you argue that while all ideology is a form of thought, not all forms of thought are ideological. You assert that any “true” social inquiry should start from the concrete reality of people’s lives and their society, i.e. life activities of conscious socio-historical subjects as they produce and reproduce themselves.

In the middle of Utah’s Canyonlands National Park, more than fifty miles of backcountry roads from the closest town of Moab, I stumble across a dance floor. It lies only a few hundred yards from the Green River, and although large parts of the cement floor are covered by reddish alluvial dirt, it looks to be some 500 square feet. That’s a big dance for the middle of nowhere … // Continue Reading…
