This guiding principle has since been referred to variously as nonviolent resistance, noncooperation, and passive resistance. But in the first days of the protest none of these expressions was mentioned: the phrase most often heard was ‘Christian love.’ It was the Sermon on the Mount, rather than a doctrine of passive resistance, that initially inspired the Negroes of Montgomery to dignified social action. It was Jesus of Nazareth that stirred the Negroes to protest with the creative weapon of love.” Martin Luther King, 1958 The Burdens of Love The philosopher Nicholas Wolterstorff once told me that one ought to wait until the age of fifty-five to write a book on love. Now, barely forty and looking back on what I have written, I fear that he may have been right. In the time between hearing Nick’s words and completing this manuscript, I have sought some consolation in the fact that my goal is to articulate Martin Luther King’s view of love rather than my own. But this consolation is thin. In truth, it is the varied burdens of my own questions, every bit as much as King’s, that have pressed this work into being. My basic question is this: How can people with deep differences live together in peace? By “peace” I mean not the mere cessation of war, nor the attainment of uneasy coexistence, but something along the lines of the Hebrew Bible’s concept of shalom, which I take to mean, “justice, wholeness, flourishing, and joy.”1 Understood in this way, my basic question takes on a more robust form: What sort of social imagination and what sort of 1 Nicholas Wolterstorff, Until Justice and Peace Embrace, Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1983, pg. 69. social ethic will be required of us if we, in the midst of deep differences of every conceivable kind, are to live together in a way that nurtures the experience of shalom? At one level, this question is deeply personal. Like billions of people around the world, I grew up in a community marked by intractable difference. My own version was a medium-sized city deep in the American South that, like so many other Southern cities in the last half of the twentieth century, struggled—often tragically—to negotiate the travails of difference. My awareness of these travails began as a young child with my first friendship with an African American. He and I shared a table in school and, as events would have it, we also shared a first name. Out of this shared space, shared name, (and, it should be confessed, shared disposition for mischief) a friendship grew. Indeed for much of that year we were simply known as “the two Greg’s.” In truth, however, we lived in different worlds. I realized this when, during class one morning, he and I were caught—not for the first time—collaborating in some sort of disruption. In response we both—not for the first time time—received our teacher’s legendary glare. And yet for some reason, on this occasion the glare struck my friend as funny. Struggling mightily, he let out an unwilled, but uncontrollable snort. Our teacher’s reaction was both instantaneous and devastating: within moments the other Greg had been jerked up by his shirt, thrown and held against the blackboard, where—in front of our entire class—our teacher told him to “wipe that nigger smile off” his face. I have never forgotten the shame on his face. Nor have I forgotten my shame, as I sat in horrified but unharmed—physically, at least—silence. At recess later that morning, I found my friend sitting alone on one of the dusty corners of the school ball field. I slid to the ground 7 beside him and watched as his tears spattered the dirt. Against our wills a rift had opened between us, and we sat in helpless silence as it filled with grief. Over the years I saw situations like this played out time and again—in schools, in locker rooms, in neighborhoods, and in churches. And on those occasions I found myself, not for the first time, confused and ashamed by my own failures to live with those different than I am in a way that even approximates shalom. It was in the context of experiences such as these, and the confusion and shame that followed them, that the first clouds of my question—of how people with deep differences might live together in peace—began to form. Seen from this perspective, this work is an attempt for me to explore—both for myself and for my friends—the possibility of our life together. At another level, this question is pastoral.

Special thanks to Dr. Chris Fennell and George Calfas for introducing me to the project and for including me in the 2011 field school. My deepest gratitude is also due to Mr. Carl Steen for sharing all of his extensive knowledge on the Edgefield potteries and for his invaluable assistance in the field. I would also wish to thank Jamie Arjona and all of the 2011 field school students who endured days of battling mosquitoes, ticks, and snakes during the hot Carolina months. Many thanks are also due to Dr. Kenneth Kelly and my committee members, Dr. Terrance Weik and Dr. Kimberly Simmons, for all of their advice and direction, as well as to all of the grad students at the University of South Carolina for their continued support. Lastly, I would like to thank everyone in the Edgefield community for their kindness and hospitality. iv ABSTRACT While the alkaline glazed stoneware potteries of the Old Edgefield District of South Carolina have previously been categorized as a Southern “folk tradition”, recent research regarding the extent of production and labor organization, along with the social and cultural milieu, reveal an early example of rural antebellum industrialization enabled and made successful through the use of enslaved labor.

  • Total Human Emancipation: Marxist Principles for a Material and Cultural Politics
    Total Human Emancipation: Marxist Principles for a Material and Cultural Politics Alexander van Eijk 11176911 University of Amsterdam MSc Political Science (Political Theory) 3 June 2020 34,008 words Research Group Alternatives to Capitalism Supervisor Dr. Annette Freyberg-Inan Second Reader Dr. Joost de Bloois Abstract This investigation begins with the acknowledgement that much of Marxist theory and practice has focused overmuch on the material dimension of oppression and emancipation, to the detriment of cultural or psychological factors. Consequently, this thesis engages with the early humanist writings of Karl Marx and the psychoanalytical Marxism of Herbert Marcuse to develop a Marxist conception of emancipation that can properly reckon with material and non-material factors of both oppression and emancipation. It is argued that the total human emancipation thereby envisioned consists of two components. First, the consciousness project entails revealing the alienating nature of capitalist relations and replacing these with relations that allow for free and self-conscious life-activity within a community of equality and mutuality. Second, the development project entails revealing the inhibitive nature of capitalist relations and replacing these with relations that allow for the fulfilment of human potential, marked by a new rationality guided by human needs. From this concept of emancipation, five principles are developed to inform political practice: Three Project Principles (Emancipated Material Relations, Cultural and Psychological

    The Yale Law Journal Volume 98, Number 6, April 1989 Articles Martin Luther King's Constitution: A Legal History of the Montgomery Bus Boycott Randall Kennedy t I have had a little something to do with lawyers since the 1955 Montgomery bus boycott. Martin Luther King, Jr.' t Assistant Professor, Harvard Law School. Many people have generously aided me in writing this article. First, I would like to thank for his unflagging support Dean James Vorenberg. I would also like to thank Anita Allen, Scott Brewer, Archibald Cox, Charles Donohue, William Fisher, Morton Horwitz, Duncan Kennedy, Sanford Levinson, Martha Minow, Aviam Soifer, Girardeau Spann, Cass Sunstein, and David Wilkins. I presented earlier versions of this paper to the Program on Legal History at Harvard Law School and faculty colloquia at the University of Texas Law School and the Cornell Law School. I deeply appreciate the comments I received at those gatherings. 1. King, Foreword to W. KUNSTLER, DEEP IN My HEART. at xxi (1966). 1000 The Yale Law Journal [Vol. 98: 999 INTRODUCTION Martin Luther King, Jr., demonstrated a keen appreciation for both the power and the limits of law.2 The movement in which he played such a central role-the Civil Rights Movement of 1955-1968-produced, as Harry Kalven, Jr. once quipped, "the first revolution in history con- ducted, so to speak, on advice of counsel." 3 King displayed attentiveness to legal symbolism in the first speech that he gave as a civil rights leader. Urging the blacks of Montgomery, Alabama, to boycott the city's buses to protest racially-motivated mistreatment, he invoked legal and religious icons to inspire their collective defiance.
