This is true on the Right, which has seen tremendous political gains in some of the world’s largest economies: England, Germany, France, the United States, and Brazil. It is perhaps equally true for the Left where nationalism has become a key rallying point for workers — a turn that has, no doubt, helped the Right consolidate its power. Against this trend, this collection of essays encourages our readers to think about how inequality, exploitation, and structural violence has gone global. The issue begins with an essay by Stephen Shapiro and Neil Lazarus, which couples the importance of linguistic theory and translation to Antonio Gramsci’s Marxism to ongoing debates about the world-literary system. They are interested in particular in “the general conceptual affinity” between “combined and uneven development” and Gramsci’s thinking about “the politicized convergence of heterogeneous social groups.” In their view, translatability — or the “political activity that involved pirating, modularization, appropriation, refunctioning, etc.” — rather than mere “translation” is better suited to the expansion of the conditions of possibility within Marxism. “What is required,” they write, “is the translation, not of Balzac into Italian, nor even of Marx into Italian, but of the conditions that underpin French politics, German philosophy and British economics into Italian. Ultimately, then, the translatability of literary or political texts is, or should be, “a matter not of intellectual work, no matter how progressive, but of practical politics.” Bret Benjamin keeps us squarely in the realm of the political, taking up the 1974 UN Declaration for a New International Economic Order (NIEO) as “a chance to reconsider the 1970s as a decade of transition in which the sharpening developmental aspirations of G77 nations in the global south come into conflict with structural transformations in the accumulation of capital.” Reading the NIEO as the “last gasp” of the Bandung era, Benjamin argues that the “developmentalist demands of the Bandung era run aground on the contemporaneous systemic crisis of capital.” Benjamin then works through and expands the arguments of the Werkritik school to argue the “NIEO ultimately express the contradictions of a transitional moment” before concluding with a gesture towards the way the NIEO might, despite its historical losses, “offer a ready-made political program of South-South radicalism” retooled for a fully enclosed world economic system. ii Editors’ Note In Malcom Read’s essay we move from the political intersections and interventions into more theoretical ones, “exploring theoretical concepts, namely the ‘ideological unconscious’ and the ‘political unconscious,’” that were “developed along very different, even contrasting lines in, respectively, the work of Juan Carlos Rodríguez and that of Fredric Jameson.” Drawing out the differences between how the two thinkers situate their work in relation to Althusser, Read invites us to take a deep dive into the world of structuralist Marxisms. Finally, Sourayan Mookerjea proposes a “Post-Western Marxism,” rooted in the insights of social reproduction and decolonization theory with the aim of thinking historically about exploitation as “the domination of inner and outer nature.” As he suggests, “if we are to understand the implications of precarity, unemployment, informality, poverty, dispossession for class politics today,” we need to see “the private appropriation of surplus value...as subalternization.” Class politics, he argues, is never immediately available and is thus “mediated by the accumulated violence of proliferating oppressions.” Reviews by Sofia Cutler on cosmopolitanisms and Myka Tucker-Abramson on the financial imaginary round out the issue, asking what it means to think of class globally. As Tucker-Abramson suggests, the essays here put a fine point on how “adopting the position that ‘dynamic global interconnection’ and ‘unevenness’ are no longer useful categories of analysis,” as some have done, amounts to an unapologetic refusal to think beyond the dynamics of the nation at a moment when the nation seems poised to become an increasingly counter-revolutionary force. Davis Smith-Brecheisen, for the Mediations editors Stephen Shapiro and Neil Lazarus. “Translatability, Combined Unevenness, and World Literature in Antonio Gramsci.” Mediations 32.1 (Fall 2018) 1-36. www.mediationsjournal.org/articles/gramsci-world-literature Translatability, Combined Unevenness, and World Literature in Antonio Gramsci Stephen Shapiro and Neil Lazarus Our research is thus into the history of culture and not literary history; or rather it is into literary history as a part or an aspect of a broader history of culture.1 Gramsci and Uneven Development This paper takes its point of departure from two contemporary research initiatives.2 The first of these is the recent scholarship on the centrality of linguistic theory and the ideas of language and translation to Antonio Gramsci’s Marxism;3 the second is the emergent discussion of world literature under the sign of “combined and uneven development.”4 These initiatives are linked, certainly; but to the best of our knowledge they have not hitherto been brought together in any sustained fashion. We therefore take some steps to link these two initiatives here, believing that what Gramsci has to say about literature, translatability, cultural “interference,” “Southernism,” and so on, including in some of his lesser-known passages, has a great deal to contribute to today’s debates about the world-literary system. Gramsci’s ideas are significantly at odds, for example, with Apter’s argument that increased translation of foreign language texts will in itself generate increased awareness of the various forms of social experience across the globe; it is significantly at odds with Damrosch’s thesis that the movement of texts across borders creates value; and it is significantly at odds with Moretti’s position that takes volume of publication as a reliable marker of the tastes of reading publics. The theory of combined and uneven development originated in the work of Engels and Lenin, but it is associated above all with Trotsky, who — writing in the 1930s, on the basis of his analysis of conditions in Russia in 1905 and China in 1925- 7 — attempted to account for the effects of the imposition of capitalism on cultures and societies hitherto un- or only sectorally capitalized. In these contexts, Trotsky proposed, the imposed capitalist forces of production and class relations tend not to supplant (or are not allowed to supplant) but to be conjoined forcibly with pre-existing 2 Shapiro and Lazarus forces and relations. The outcome is a contradictory “amalgam of archaic with more contemporary forms” — an urban proletariat working in technologically advanced industries existing side by side with a rural population engaged in subsistence farming; industrial plants built alongside “villages of wood and straw,”

  • George Mcturnan Kahin, 1918-2000
    George McTurnan Kahin, 1918-2000 The following tributes were composed by members of the Southeast Asia Program, Cornell University, in honor of George Kahin. The eulogies by Stanley J. O'Connor and Thak Chaloemtiarana were delivered at the memorial service for George Kahin, February 4, 2000, Ithaca, NY. Benedict Anderson's tribute was delivered at the Celebration of the Life of George McTurnan Kahin, May 6, 2000, Ithaca, NY. George Kahin was a national figure, and his life and career are being recounted in major newspapers. Of this there will be much telling abroad as well. But our loss is local and felt deeply. He was the bedrock on which many of us based our professional lives. We have all been touched by his warmth, his kindness, and made better by his example of courage, integrity, and his patient devotion to our corporate life. His passing brings a chill blast of mortality, a keen apprehension of the fragility of life and the tenuousness of the threads that bind us to each other. I would remind you that a tree was planted in George's honor at the center of the university—out on the contained immensity of the Arts Quadrangle. Today, its wet black branches are bare, but burgeoning life will return with the spring. And, across the Quadrangle, the library, with shelves stretching in the deep structure of its orders, fills silently with Southeast Asian witness, a consequence, in part, of George's advocacy and stewardship with Program funds. Many more books will flow out of the quiet labor now underway at the Kahin Center for Advanced Research on Southeast Asia.

  • Percorsi Etruschi "In Verità È Impressionante Constatare Che Per Due Volte, Nel VII Secolo A
    2 Prefazione "L’uomo che non è mai stato in Italia, è sempre cosciente di un’inferiorità." Samuel Johnson Perché possiamo parlare dell’Italia come Opera Unica? Certo è che in essa sono concentrati la maggior parte dei beni artistici esistenti sul pianeta Terra, questo senza tener conto delle enormi ricchezze che ci rappresentano in alcuni tra i musei più importanti del mondo come il Louvre a Parigi, l’Heritage a San Pietroburgo o la National Gallery a Londra, visto e considerato che, insieme all’Egitto e alla Grecia, siamo tra i paesi più depauperati da un punto di vista patrimoniale, oltre che, da sempre, l’Arte Italiana fa scuola a studenti e artisti provenienti da ogni dove, talvolta diventati celeberrimi come Balthus, Picas- so e Turner, e che hanno affrontato i viaggi più avventurosi per studiare i no- stri capolavori i quali hanno influenzato visibilmente le loro opere. La famosa "Sindrome di Stendhal" prende nome proprio dalla reazione emo- tiva ansiogena che colse il famoso scrittore Francese e che egli racconta nel suo libro "Roma, Napoli e Firenze" descrivendola come una sintomatologia paralizzante dovuta all’improvvisa bellezza di un monumento e che lo colse uscendo dalla chiesa di Santa Croce, nel capoluogo toscano. Nel solo territorio Italiano contiamo cinquantacinque siti UNESCO a cui va aggiunto il Vaticano e senza tener conto che luoghi come Ercolano e Pompei sono considerati un unico sito. Trattasi di un numero pari a quello che può vantare la Cina, ma l’estensione dell’Italia, come si sa, è ben più ridotta. In sostanza, ovunque ci si trovi, nel nostro bel paese, si rischia di essere colpiti dalla stessa Sindrome che colse Stendhal.

  • State and Revolution in the Making of the Indonesian Republic
    Jurnal Sejarah. Vol. 2(1), 2018: 64 – 76 © Pengurus Pusat Masyarakat Sejarawan Indonesia https://doi.org/10.26639/js.v%vi%i.117 State and Revolution in the Making of the Indonesian Republic Norman Joshua Northwestern University Abstract While much ink has been spilled in the effort of explaining the Indonesian National Revolution, major questions remain unanswered. What was the true character of the Indonesian revolution, and when did it end? This article builds a case for viewing Indonesia’s revolution from a new perspective. Based on a revisionist reading of classic texts on the Revolution, I argue that the idea of a singular, elite-driven and Java-centric "revolution" dismisses the central meaning of the revolution itself, as it was simultaneously national and regional in scope, political and social in character, and it spanned more than the five years as it was previously examined. Keywords: Revolution, regionalism, elite-driven, Java-centric Introduction In his speech to Indonesian Marhaenist youth leaders in front of the Istana Negara on December 20, 1966, President Soekarno claimed that “[The Indonesian] revolution is not over!”1 Soekarno’s proposition calls attention to at least two different perspectives on revolution. On the one hand, the Indonesian discourse of a continuous revolution resonates with other permanent leftist revolutions elsewhere, such as the Cultural Revolution in Maoist China, Cuban Revolution in Castroist Cuba, or the Bolivarian 1 Soekarno, Revolusi belum selesai: kumpulan pidato Presiden Soekarno, 30 September 1965, pelengkap Nawaksara, ed.

Bungay, Suffol\ To LEORA, DIANA, and SEEGLA whose generation must not be indifferent to the fate of Asia and her peoples INTRODUCTION ASIA has various meanings. To some it is a geographical expression, the and largest most populous of the continents. And so it is, with 17 million miles square and if billion people, covering one-third of the earth's surface and nearly two-thirds of mankind. Other think of people Asia as the home of the great religions. This image, too, is well-grounded in fact, as revealed by a glance around the 'Rimland'. From South-West Asia, better known as the Near or East Middle East, came Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. India gave the world Hinduism and Buddhism, while China contributed a Confucianism, really philosophy with the power of religion, and Japan added Shinto. No wonder that Westerners talk about the mystical and spiritual East. If one adds to the list such faiths as Zoroastrianism, the religion of the Persians before the coming of Islam, Sikhism and Jainism in India, Taoism in China, and Lamaism, a form of Buddhism in High Asia, along with a host of less sophisticated beliefs, the spiritual image becomes almost a self- evident truth.

Forehand, Ph.D., Dean of the Graduate College Abstract This thesis examines the history of Indonesian nationalism over the course of the twentieth century. In this thesis, I argue that the country’s two main political leaders of the twentieth century, Presidents Sukarno (1945-1967) and Suharto (1967-1998) manipulated nationalist ideology to enhance and extend their executive powers. The thesis begins by looking at the ways that the nationalist movement originated during the final years of the Dutch East Indies colonial period.

  • Southeast Asia
    Southeast Asia George McTurnan Kahin was a pioneering scholar of Southeast Asian history and politics, and US foreign policy. His book offers a unique perspective on American involvement in Southeast Asia, from the 1940s to the 1970s. A biting critique of postwar American policy towards the area, it also provides an enthralling account of the author’s personal experiences in revolutionary Indonesia and Vietnam, and of his attempts to bring US policy into accord with Southeast Asian realities. Southeast Asia: A testament ranges from postwar Indonesia through the Vietnam War and the Cambodian War. Drawing both on his personal expe- rience and on multiple archival sources, Kahin recounts the history of Indonesia’s successful struggle against the Dutch down to Suharto’s bloody overthrow of Sukarno in 1965. It also gives a personal view of the US involvement in Indochina, where George Kahin was an early critic of the Vietnam War and struggled to open the eyes of policy makers to the histor- ical, political, and military realities of the Vietnamese situation. Kahin also witnessed the reluctant involvement of Cambodia in the conflict, and the 1970 coup against Prince Sihanouk, which paved the way for the Communist accession to power. This book will be of interest to students of American diplomatic and foreign policy, Asian studies, and international relations. It is an engagingly written, often poignant, personal account of George Kahin’s experiences in Southeast Asia and, as such, will also appeal to the general reader. George McT. Kahin was Professor Emeritus of International Politics at Cornell University. His books on Indonesia include Nationalism and Revolution in Indonesia (1952) and Subversion as Foreign Policy (1995).
