  • The Winding Paths of Capital
    giovanni arrighi THE WINDING PATHS OF CAPITAL Interview by David Harvey Could you tell us about your family background and your education? was born in Milan in 1937. On my mother’s side, my fam- ily background was bourgeois. My grandfather, the son of Swiss immigrants to Italy, had risen from the ranks of the labour aristocracy to establish his own factories in the early twentieth Icentury, manufacturing textile machinery and later, heating and air- conditioning equipment. My father was the son of a railway worker, born in Tuscany. He came to Milan and got a job in my maternal grand- father’s factory—in other words, he ended up marrying the boss’s daughter. There were tensions, which eventually resulted in my father setting up his own business, in competition with his father-in-law. Both shared anti-fascist sentiments, however, and that greatly influenced my early childhood, dominated as it was by the war: the Nazi occupation of Northern Italy after Rome’s surrender in 1943, the Resistance and the arrival of the Allied troops. My father died suddenly in a car accident, when I was 18. I decided to keep his company going, against my grandfather’s advice, and entered the Università Bocconi to study economics, hoping it would help me understand how to run the firm. The Economics Department was a neo- classical stronghold, untouched by Keynesianism of any kind, and no help at all with my father’s business. I finally realized I would have to close it down. I then spent two years on the shop-floor of one of my new left review 56 mar apr 2009 61 62 nlr 56 grandfather’s firms, collecting data on the organization of the production process.

  • Post/Autonomia
    Progressive nostalgia. Appropriating memories of protest and contention in contemporary Italy Andrea Hajek, PhD Visiting Fellow at the Centre for the Study of Cultural Memory IGRS, University of London Abstract More than 30 years ago the violent death - on 11 March 1977 - of a left-wing student in the Italian city of Bologna brought an end to a student protest movement, the ‘Movement of ’77’. Today nostalgia dominates public commemorations of the movement as it manifested itself in Bologna. However, this memory is not an exclusive memory of the 1977 generation. A number of young, left-wing activists that draw on the myth of 1977 in Bologna and in particular on the memory of the local Workers Autonomy faction appropriate this memory in a similarly nostalgic manner. This article then explores the value of nostalgia in generational memory: how does it relate to past, present and future, and to what extent does it influence processes of identity formation among youth groups? I argue that nostalgia is more than a longing for the past, and that it can be conceived as progressive and future-orientated, providing empowerment for specific social groups. Keywords Nostalgia, generational memory, 1970s, Italian student movements, Workers Autonomy. Word count: ca. 6.000 (incl. notes and references) 1 Progressive nostalgia. Appropriating memories of protest and contention in contemporary Italy ‘Pagherete caro, pagherete tutto!’1 On 12 March 2011, this slogan reverberated in the streets of the Italian city of Bologna, 34 years after left-wing student Francesco Lorusso was shot dead by police during student protests. Lorusso’s disputed and unresolved death on 11 March 1977 - for which the police officer who shot him was never tried - as well as the violent incidents that subsequently kept Bologna in a state of high tension, have left a deep wound in the city, in particular among Lorusso’s former companions and friends.

  • End of Work, Complete Automation, Robotic Anarcho-Communism
    It’s the End of Work as We Know It: End Of Work, Complete Automation, Robotic Anarcho-Communism Pierpaolo Marrone † [email protected] ABSTRACT In this article I explore some consequences of the relations between technique, capitalism and radical liberation ideologies (such as communism and anarcho- communism). My thesis is that the latter are going to rise to the extent that wage labor will become a scarce commodity. Through total automation, however, what may occur will not be the end of the reign of scarcity, but a new oppressive order. It is sometimes said that the end of the so-called ethical parties in the West was the consequence of the end of ideologies (Lepre, 2006). The alleged end of ideologies (Fukuyama, 2003) would have produced two relevant consequences: 1) the decline of politics, replaced by the economy; 2) the end of any utopian inspiration, which would have been rendered impossible by the dominance of the technique, since this would represent the universal affirmation of instrumental rationality (the one that Weber called "steel cage"; Weber, 1971). It is, in any case, a fact that ethical parties, which proposed complex alternative visions of the world, have disappeared, perhaps because they corresponded to a Fordist work organization, based on production and not consumption (Boltanski & Chiapello, 1999) . It is not at all obvious, however, that the end of ideologies really did exist. Just as it is not obvious - and it will be the thesis that I will try to explore in this paper - that the spirit of utopia cannot rise again and perhaps it has never gone away, together with its hopes and its dangers.

  • Introduction: Negotiating Memories of Protest
    Notes Introduction: Negotiating Memories of Protest 1. ‘Contentious’ protests relate to collective actions performed by social groups that do not have ‘regular access to institutions, [ ...] act in the name of new or unaccepted claims, and [ ...] behave in ways that fundamentally challenge others or authorities’. Tarrow (2006, p. 3). 2. See Melucci (1996); Goodwin et al. (2001); Polletta and Jasper (2001); Jasper (2010). 3. See Mason (2011). 4. This is opposed to social memory, ‘an often not activated potentiality’ of which collective memory only represents ‘an activated practice’. Namer (1991, p. 93). 5. See Nowotny (1994); Adam (1995); Hoskins (2001); Brose cited in Hoskins (2004). 6. At present memory studies are, in fact, a disparate discipline which involves fields as diverse as history, sociology, literary and media studies and psychol- ogy, and its inter- or trans-disciplinary nature has produced a multitude of terminologies and definitions. Erll (2008). 7. ‘Communicative memory’ implies a living, autobiographical and ‘fluid’ memory based on everyday communication (Assmann, 2008, p. 111). 8. In this book I will predominantly apply the definition of ‘cultural’ memory in my analysis of the transference of memories of protest movements of the 1970s, whereas I reserve the concept of ‘collective’ memory to discussions about shared memories of groups more in generally (Erll, 2006, p. 5; Erll, 2008, p. 4). 9. The ‘linguistic turn’ was a development in Western philosophy which focused on the relation between philosophy and language. One of the strands within the movement acknowledges that language is not a trans- parent medium of thought, thus creating an awareness of the falseness of the claim that history can produce ‘true’ or ‘authentic’ accounts of the past.

But in autumn 1984 two comrades, one a veteran of the ORA/AWA/LCG, had returned from France where they had been living and working and where they had been involved in the libertarian communist movement. A decision was made to set up the Libertarian Communist Discussion Group (LCDG) with the aim of creating a specific organisation. Copies of the Organisational Platform of the Libertarian Communists, left over from the AWA/LCG days, were distributed to bookshops, with a contact address for the Anarchist-Communist Discussion Group (ACDG).

  • Squatting in Europe: Radical Spaces, Urban Struggles Edited by the Squatting Europe Kollective
    Minor Compositions Open Access Statement – Please Read This book is open access. This work is not simply an electronic book; it is the open access version of a work that exists in a number of forms, the traditional printed form being one of them. All Minor Compositions publications are placed for free, in their entirety, on the web. This is because the free and autonomous sharing of knowledges and experiences is important, especially at a time when the restructuring and increased centralization of book distribution makes it difficult (and expensive) to distribute radical texts effectively. The free posting of these texts does not mean that the necessary energy and labor to produce them is no longer there. One can think of buying physical copies not as the purchase of commodities, but as a form of support or solidarity for an approach to knowledge production and engaged research (particularly when purchasing directly from the publisher). The open access nature of this publication means that you can: • read and store this document free of charge • distribute it for personal use free of charge • print sections of the work for personal use • read or perform parts of the work in a context where no financial transactions take place However, it is against the purposes of Minor Compositions open access approach to: • gain financially from the work • sell the work or seek monies in relation to the distribution of the work • use the work in any commercial activity of any kind • profit a third party indirectly via use or distribution of the work • distribute in or through a commercial body (with the exception of academic usage within educational institutions) The intent of Minor Compositions as a project is that any surpluses generated from the use of collectively produced literature are intended to return to further the development and production of further publications and writing: that which comes from the commons will be used to keep cultivating those commons.
