Reviews

4.9 out of 5 stars from 20 ratings
  • These are necessary ideas

    Good podcast with conversations that need to be had about what a non-capitalist future looks like.

    My only criticism is the host is sometimes overly skeptical of the guests and takes the wind out of their sails a bit. Debate is good, but it should move ideas forward, not pull them back. I'd rather he let them present their vision and ask questions that take us deeper into that vision.

Jasper Bernes on Workers' Councils, Labor Time Calculation and the Future of Revolution

Jasper Bernes on Workers' Councils, Labor Time Calculation and the Future of Revolution

Jacob Blumenfeld on Climate Barbarism and Managing Decline

Fossil subjectivity encompasses how our reliance on fossil fuels shapes our self-understanding and relationships, suggesting that a transformation must account for both economic and subjective factors.
Jacob Blumenfeld on Climate Barbarism and Managing Decline
