This book provides renewed reflection and critical discussion on John Holloway's political and theoretical thought. Two decades ago, in Change the World without Taking Power, Holloway set out on a path that he followed a decade later in Crack Capitalism and continues to walk today with his new book, Hope in Hopeless Times. The contributions in this volume critically analyze his innovative attempt to rethink the meaning and dynamics of revolution in the conditions of contemporary capitalism. More than ten years after the publication of Crack Capitalism, this volume aims to question Holloway's attempt, as well as his theoretical foundations in his original rereading of Marxism and Critical Theory and their relations with the characteristics adopted by the anti-capitalist struggles during the last two decades. Its authors, from different geographies, traditions, and scientific disciplines, establish throughout its pages a fruitful dialogue convened by Holloway's innovative ideas.

This book presents a new interpretation of the role of human capital and the state in driving economic development. It places these ideas within broader debates within the history of economic thought to highlight how the nature of economic activity is a collective and coordinated process. Through examining how the welfare state reversed traditional accumulation by relying on human capital growth, the importance of the state within the development process is emphasised, alongside the multifaceted nature of competition. Different forms of public expenditure are then evaluated to identify the most productive forms of public spending and the drivers of long term economic development.This book questions the relationship between profits and rent and proposes a new kind of economic development based around human capital. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in the history of economic thought, the political economy, and labour economics.
The book intends to capture the most critical issue that has cropped up as an aftermath of the Corona pandemic- the phenomenon of widening of global inequalities across nations depending upon their economic position, support policies of the government and international relationship particularly in the context of alarming growth of unemployed in the labour market, business activity and social sector. This book is expected to provide new areas of research to both academicians and policy makers to re-think about global cooperation for bridging the inequalities for a better world. It tries to incorporate the valuable contribution of experts from various fields of knowledge in a consolidated volume.This text will be revised once the chapters are finalized and put together in structured themes. The table of content lists some of the chapters that have been confirmed, but there are more that are being invited by the editors.
Our reflection seeks to highlight the historical fact that manipulation became the essential characteristic of capitalism after the Second World War. In coining the term "manipulative capitalism", Gyorgy Lukács was a visionary. The adjective "manipulative" qualifies the fundamental nature of the global system of capital. Therefore, more important than qualifying global capitalism as "cognitive capitalism", "neoliberal capitalism" or "technological capitalism" or even "financial capitalism", the most appropriate way to criticize capital is to qualify it as manipulative capitalism , since it is from its essentially manipulative nature that the capitalist mode of production organizes today - more than ever - politics, work, subjectivity, culture, ideology and technology. Therefore, manipulation in an unprecedented dimension in human history organizes the reproduction of global capital. Never has the power of ideology as manipulation acquired such material force. After the Second World War, the technological resources of mass media and mass ( dis )information developed impressively . From television to the Internet with social networks, such means of mass manipulation contributed to boost the cultural revolution of capital. In a historically unprecedented dimension, consumption and politics became objects of manipulation by capital. We cannot underestimate the power of the new informational technologies in leveraging the power of ideology and the manipulation of human subjectivity in the service of the interests of the profit system.
