'Boris Kagarlitsky is a man of enormous intellect and bravery ... I've always been stimulated by discussions with Boris and his relationship with thoughtful figures all around the world'- Jeremy Corbyn MP'Perhaps the most prominent Marxist thinker in the post-Soviet space' - Open Democracy'This brilliant and profound book is likely to become a classic'- Jayati Ghosh, Professor of Economics, University of Massachusetts AmherstAuthoritarianism is rampant across the globe. Right-wing governments from Russia to America oversee wars from Ukraine to Palestine, while capitalism lurches from crisis to crisis, its citizens mired in poverty. Imprisoned Putin critic Boris Kagarlitsky confronts this stark reality, demanding a clear strategy from the left to dismantle this ever-darkening nightmare.As well as bringing Russian and Western thinkers into dialogue, Kagarlitsky draws upon his experiences as a Russian dissident since the latter days of the Soviet Union in this detailed analysis of leftist strategy. As a Marxist, he engages in radical ideas including Universal Basic Income and decentralised collective ownership, as well as looking at historical and contemporary examples of revolution and dissent, covering the left's response to the war in Ukraine.Written just before Kagarlitsky's imprisonment, The Long Retreat stands as a testament to subversive Russian literature. It asks if the left can put aside its paralysing sectarianism and conceits of ideological purity in order to transform society for the benefit of the global working class. Kagarlitsky believes it can, as long as it is unafraid to look critically at its own ideas and actions.Boris Kagarlitsky is a Russian Marxist theoretician and sociologist who has been a political dissident in the former Soviet Union and the Russian Federation. He is the author of many books. In 2023 he was detained under Putin's regime for speaking out against the war in Ukraine, and in February 2024 he was sentenced to five years in a penal colony.

Samfundshistorie og økonomi handler mest om udviklingen af folkeslag i den tredje verden. Rosa Luxemburg prøvede forgæves at få den udgivet under 1. Verdenskrig, dens titel var planlagt til Einführung in die Nationalökonomie.Luxemburg giver ikke bare en forklaring på kapitalismens historiske udvikling. Det var dens opløsningsproces der interesserede hende. Hun undersøger de ’primitive’ kommunistiske samfund som inkaerne, afrikanerne og andre. Og hun viser, hvordan ”privatejendom, klasseherredømme, mandsdominans, tvangsstat og tvangsægteskab” stammede fra den indre opløsning af de tidligere slægtsbånd. I sin analyse af det antikke Grækenland og Rom påviser hun, hvordan slaveriet underminerede samfundets økonomiske grundlag og i den sidste ende førte til dets opløsning. Med hensyn til Middelalderen i Europa afslører hun, hvordan væksten i byttehandel og privatejendom skader den patriarkalske solidaritet, der prægede de feudale samfund. Bogen afsluttes med en artikel, som først blev kendt, efter at den japanske professor Narihiko Ito fandt den i et russisk statsarkiv og offentliggjorde den i 2002. Den handler om slaver, deres levevilkår, hvordan og hvad de spiste, slaveopstande, slavernes rekruttering og samfundsbetydning, bl.a. hvordan de fortrængte bønderne. Bogens grundlag er de forelæsninger hun holdt på den socialdemokratiske partiskole i Berlin, en slags arbejderhøjskole, fra 1907 og frem. En indledning omtaler partiskolen og dens arbejde, herunder også en oversættelse af Peter Hudis’ indledning i den engelske The complete Works of Rosa Luxemburg.
Friedrich Engels's Ludwig Feuerbach and the Outcome of Classical German Philosophy is one of the most important texts in the classical Marxist canon. Written in 1886, three years after Marx's death, Engels takes up the suggestion from the editors of Die Neue Zeit, the theoretical journal of the Social Democratic Party of Germany, to write a reply to C. N. Starcke's recently published book on Ludwig Feuerbach. Similar to his book Anti-Dühring, the opportunity is used to flesh out, in an unprecedented manner, his and Marx's views on the influence of G. W. F. Hegel and Ludwig Feuerbach's philosophy on their development of the dialectical materialist worldview-the Marxist outlook. In the present text, Dr. Thomas Riggins provides an illuminating exegesis of this seminal work, explaining with unmatched lucidity Engels' arguments and their philosophical context. In addition to Dr. Riggins's detailed interpretation and the original Engels text, this book also includes a collection of three other important articles from Dr. Riggins on Engels's contributions to Marxism.Published by the Midwestern Marx Publishing Press (ISBN: 979-8-218-95982-1)The publishing press of the MIDWESTERN MARX INSTITUTE FOR MARXIST THEORY AND POLITICAL ANALYSISAbout the Author: Thomas Riggins is a retired philosophy teacher (NYU, The New School of Social Research, among others) who received a PhD from the CUNY Graduate Center (1983).

Claus Bryld er søn af en dansk nazist, hvis tre brødre også var aktive i det danske nazistparti, DNSAP, under besættelsen. Reaktionen og bearbejdningen heraf har fyldt meget i hans liv, og i denne erindringsbog fortæller han om en barndom og ungdom, som var farverig og fuld af omskiftelser, men også konstant truet af frygten for, at omverdenen skulle bruge hans fars historie mod ham. I en moden alder begynder han dog at italesætte fortiden og at tage et offentligt opgør med forældregenerationen og dens skyld. Ikke så meget for at dømme som for at forstå. Foruden dette opgør, der også er et opgør med udrensningen efter krigen, skildrer Claus Bryld sin egen udvikling, menneskeligt såvel som politisk, en udvikling, der gik i en helt anden retning end faren og farbrødrenes.Bogen udgør en blanding af personlig erindring fra tiden 1944 til 1971 og historisk fremstilling, der bygger på de endeligt frigivne dokumenter fra besættelsestiden og retsopgøret.
Socio-Historical Examination of Religion and Ministry (SHERM Journal) is a biannual (not-for-profit) peer-reviewed academic journal that publishes the latest social-scientific, historiographic, and ecclesiastic research on religious institutions and their ministerial practices. SHERM is dedicated to the critical and scholarly inquiry of historical and contemporary religious phenomena, both from within particular religious traditions and across cultural boundaries, so as to inform the broader socio-historical analysis of religion and its related fields of study. The purpose of SHERM Journal is to provide a scholarly medium for the social-scientific study of religion where specialists can publish advanced studies on religious trends, theologies, rituals, philosophies, socio-political influences, or experimental and applied ministry research in the hopes of generating enthusiasm for the vocational and academic study of religion while fostering collegiality among religion specialists. Its mission is to provide academics, professionals, and nonspecialists with critical reflections and evidence-based insights into the socio-historical study of religion and, where appropriate, its implications for ministry and expressions of religiosity.¿
A pioneer of the “exvangelical” movement examines how toxic right-wing beliefs took over American Christianity—and why people are leaving the church and speaking out against itWith the rise of Trumpism, the American evangelical movement has more political influence than ever—yet at the same time, people are leaving Christianity in record numbers. Why are so many people walking away from the right-wing religion they were raised in, and what are they doing to overcome the past?Writer and podcaster Blake Chastain is uniquely positioned to understand this phenomenon. Raised evangelical, he went to a Christian college intending to become a pastor—until he found himself unable to reconcile his faith with the prejudice and even abuse he saw being done in God’s name. He created the popular hashtag #exvangelical and the hit podcast of the same name, and soon became part of a growing movement of people walking away from toxic religion and using the unique tools of the internet to speak out, find healing, and build new communities.In Exvangelical and Beyond, Chastain delves into evangelicalism’s deep roots in American politics and society, and explains why and how so many Christians—and ex-Christians—are forging a new path online. Blending history, personal narrative, and incisive analysis, this is a must-read for anyone who has left the church, is deconstructing their own faith, or simply wants to understand religious culture in America.
During the formation of the Turkish national movement, while Istanbul was under British, French, and Italian occupation, a distinct factional split emerged. One side supported the Ottoman sultanate's sovereignty, while the other championed a populist, republican path. An Istanbul at the Threshold of Nation State contextualizes this history of coalition, political disintegration, and power struggles in Turkey between 1918 and 1923 to highlight the rise of anti-communist movements and the emergence of national labor and merchant confederations that formed xenophobic, Christian exclusionary policies in the 1920s and 30s.

"Michael Feola diagnoses the dangers the racist "Great Replacement" narrative poses as it shapes the far-right imagination, expands through civil society, and deforms political culture. Showing how it has motivated a variety of dangerous political projects in pursuit of illiberal, antidemocratic futures, The Rage of Replacement makes clear that replacement theory poses a dire threat to democracy and safety"--
Islamic Governance: Governance of the Divinely-Sanctioned Social Order under Conditions of Religious Solidarity The four volumes of Ayatollah Khamenei's Islamic Governance provide the theoretical framework for authentic Islamic governance in the modern era that is deeply rooted in Islamic principles and in what makes us human. Authored by one of the foremost theoreticians and practitioners of the revolutionary Islamic movement that culminated in the triumph of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, the book provides a genuine alternative both to the morally bankrupt liberal social order of the West, as well as to the defunct and sterile alternatives provided within the rest of the Islamic world. Volume Two: The ImamateThe Imamate begins with commentaries on two scriptural proofs for the Imamate: the Sermon of Ghadir Khumm and the Had¿th of the Two Weighty Trusts. Ayatollah Khamenei then provides a survey of various approaches that have been taken to the issue of leadership, including a discussion concerning the necessity of the imamate, the succession to the prophet, and the characteristics and functions of the imam. The volume closes with a chapter on Illegitimate Governance (Taghut), and a chapter on Divinely-Sanctioned Authority & Governance. The reader will develop a contextual understanding of the concept of authentic Islamic leadership and how its absence can lead to many of the injustices of history.
The book examines Slovak education as an example of totalitarianism, exploring two opposing sides: the publicly expressed values and ideals of offi cial compulsory education subordinated to government power and the alternative ideals and concepts of unofficial education implemented by informal groups and underground organizations (dissent). The authors seek answers to Hannah Arendt's iconic questions: What happened? Why did it happen? How could this happen? The title of the book also references the dualism in the lives of individuals and families who did not identify with the doctrine of Marxism-Leninism and totalitarian ways of governing. In order to preserve their inner freedom, they lived a double life, one in private and the other in public.

Die gesellschaftspolitischen Instabilitäten nehmen global wieder zu. Menschenverachtende Geopolitik erhält gut erkennbar Auftrieb. Mit dem Aufkommen der Ukraine- und Israelkriese wird das Thema Krieg auch in Deutschland wieder gesellschaftlich hoffähig. Dazu zeigt unser Finanzsystem seine inhärenten Fehler immer unverblümter. Ist von einem Ende der "Corona-Maßnahmen"-Krise die Rede? Oder sprechen wir mit dem Beginn des Pandemiezeitalters lediglich vom Ende der ersten Runde und der Gong zur nächsten lässt nicht lange auf sich warten? Lassen wir uns überraschen...Im dritten Teil dieser dreiteiligen Reihe beschreibt Vervé die - speziell für ihn - relevanten Aspekte menschlicher Selbstorganisation. Mangel, Krieg und Ungerechtigkeit werden hier als organisatorische Defizite wahrgenommen. Interessenkonflikte zwischen ungemein mächtigen Minderheiten und ohnmächtigen Massen stellen wohl das auffälligste Symptom dar, während ein digitaler Zentralismus sich im Gewand des Transhumanismus zunehmend unbarmherzig global offenbart.
Genudgivelse af Eskil Halbergs Madpakker til revolution,hvori det vises, at kapitalismen har taget kontrol over maden til skadefor klimaet og alt levende, og at vi derfor står i en livsnødvendig kamp for at skabe en anden økologi.I vores del af verden, men i stigende grad overalt i verden, er mad i dag formidlet gennem verdensmarkedet. Vi er, paradoksalt nok,livsvigtigt afhængige af det system, som samtidig smadrer vores egnelivsbetingelser.— Eskil HalbergHalberg tager os med ud pålandet. Vi har vist ikke lyst til at blive derude, som det ser ud ligenu. Men det kan vi ændre på. “Det er næsten umuligt at gøre oprør fra en rapsmark.” Men det kan gøres fra et vildnis, fra et landbrugskollektiv, fra en byhave. Jeg fristes til at slutte af med et kampråb: Ingenklassekamp uden madkamp!— Mikkel ThorupMadpakker tilRevolutionen er lige præcis det øko-kommunistiske manifest vi har brugfor til at orientere os i kampen mod kapitalismens destruktiveorganisering af vores fælles naturgrundlag. En enestående analyse fra en af vor tids mest interessante kommunistiske tænkere!— Søren Mau
