  • BP, Tar Sands, and the Re-Industrialization of the Calumet Region
    The frontiers of North America's fossil fuel boom: BP, Tar Sands, and the re-industrialization of the Calumet Region Graham Pickren 1 Roosevelt University, USA Abstract This article focuses in on the ways in which the North American energy boom is reworking environments and livelihoods in the Great Lakes, focusing in particular on the expansion of BP's Chicago-area refinery as it has pivoted towards processing Canadian tar sands oil. In examining this 're-industrialization', the article contributes to an ongoing discussion about the relationship between fossil fuels, limits to capitalism, and the importance of frontiers in resolving capitalist crises. The first empirical section of the article looks at the early history of the Calumet's development as a hub for fossil fuel distribution and refining and, drawing from Moore's 'world-ecology framework', demonstrates the ways in the appropriation of unpaid work/energy - in particular the appropriation of the wetlands that make up the southern tip of Lake Michigan - serves as the underappreciated condition of possibility for the BP Whiting refinery's existence. Today, this combination of productivity and plunder continues in the region, illustrating urban metabolisms that are not confined to the city. In the second empirical section of the article, I argue that despite predictions of crises arising from declining ecological surpluses, in Calumet today, BP is finding new frontiers of surplus value production, both in the form of producing petcoke and in continued geographic expansion in the region. As a way of understanding the persistence and adaptive capacity of capital, even in degraded landscapes like Calumet, I consider Johnson's concept of 'accumulation by degradation' as an excellent tool for understanding dynamics in the region.

  • Marktown: Clayton Mark’S Planned Worker Community in Northwest Indiana
    10/23/2014 Marktown: Clayton Mark’s Planned Worker Community in Northwest Indiana Category: Vol. 4, 2011 Marktown: Clayton Mark’s Planned Worker Community in Northwest Indiana Written by Stephanie Smith, Ph.D. Steve Mark[1] Hits: 26055 photo credit: Frank Bellarmino …(Marktown)…deserves to be restored to its former glory, keeping the tenants of historic preservation as the foundation of its future ... (Myers, 2007, para. 9). Marktown is an urban planned worker community in East Chicago, Indiana, built in 1917 from marshland to provide a complete community for workers at The Mark Manufacturing Company. In the construction of Marktown there was an emphasis on tasteful housing in a humane environment (Shaw, 2002). The industries in East Chicago have since expanded to the borders of Marktown, so that today Marktown is a historic residential island surrounded by one of the densest industrial complexes in the world (Shaw, 2002). This self-contained community has a unique characteristic as noted in Ripley’s Believe It or Not (1967), the streets serve as walkways, and the cars are parked on the sidewalks (Taylor, Stevens, Ponder, & Brockman, 1989). In 2007, Marktown was listed as one of the seven wonders of Northwest Indiana (Myers, 2007). http://www.southshorejournal.org/index.php/issues/volume-4-2011/84-journals/vol-4-2011/82-marktown-clayton-marks-planned-worker-community-in-north… 1/10 10/23/2014 Marktown: Clayton Mark’s Planned Worker Community in Northwest Indiana It is important to have an understanding of the historical roots that drove the development of Marktown. During the later part of the 1800’s, the United States went through a period known as the Gilded Age (Twain & Warner, 1873).
