  • Markets Not Capitalism Explores the Gap Between Radically Freed Markets and the Capitalist-Controlled Markets That Prevail Today
    individualist anarchism against bosses, inequality, corporate power, and structural poverty Edited by Gary Chartier & Charles W. Johnson Individualist anarchists believe in mutual exchange, not economic privilege. They believe in freed markets, not capitalism. They defend a distinctive response to the challenges of ending global capitalism and achieving social justice: eliminate the political privileges that prop up capitalists. Massive concentrations of wealth, rigid economic hierarchies, and unsustainable modes of production are not the results of the market form, but of markets deformed and rigged by a network of state-secured controls and privileges to the business class. Markets Not Capitalism explores the gap between radically freed markets and the capitalist-controlled markets that prevail today. It explains how liberating market exchange from state capitalist privilege can abolish structural poverty, help working people take control over the conditions of their labor, and redistribute wealth and social power. Featuring discussions of socialism, capitalism, markets, ownership, labor struggle, grassroots privatization, intellectual property, health care, racism, sexism, and environmental issues, this unique collection brings together classic essays by Cleyre, and such contemporary innovators as Kevin Carson and Roderick Long. It introduces an eye-opening approach to radical social thought, rooted equally in libertarian socialism and market anarchism. “We on the left need a good shake to get us thinking, and these arguments for market anarchism do the job in lively and thoughtful fashion.” – Alexander Cockburn, editor and publisher, Counterpunch “Anarchy is not chaos; nor is it violence. This rich and provocative gathering of essays by anarchists past and present imagines society unburdened by state, markets un-warped by capitalism.

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by KU ScholarWorks THE ART OF SEDUCTION AND AFFECT ECONOMY: NEOLIBERAL CLASS STRUGGLE AND GENDER POLITICS IN A TOKYO HOST CLUB BY AKIKO TAKEYAMA B.A., University of Oregon, 1999 M.A., University of Oregon, 2001 DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2008 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Karen Kelsky, Chair Professor Nancy Abelmann Associate Professor Martin F Manalansan IV Associate Professor Alejandro Lugo Associate Professor Brenda Farnell ABSTRACT My dissertation investigates the underground world of Japan’s increasingly popular host club scene, where mostly young, working-class men “sell” romance, love, and sometimes sex to indulge their female clients’ fantasy, often for exorbitant sums of money. I explore this commercialization of feelings, emotions, and romantic relationships — what I call ‘affect economy’— in the context of Japan’s recent socioeconomic restructuring, a reaction to globalization that is reshaping the nation’s labor and commodity forms. Based on ethnographic fieldwork I conducted in Tokyo between 2003 and 2005, I argue that selfhood, lifestyles, and social relationships have become commodifiable at the intersection of Japan’s postindustrial consumer culture and neoliberal globalization. My dissertation aims to provide a fine-grained ethnographic portrait of how hosts and their clients mutually seduce one another to foster a commodified form of romance whereby both sides seek alternative lives and cultivate their desirable selves —potentially successful entrepreneurial men and sexually attractive women—while it simultaneously underscores gender subordination, social inequality, and the exploitative nature of the affect economy in Japan.

Using research on frame alignment in social movements, the first issue of National Review is analyzed and placed in context with contemporaneous events and publications. The creation and editing of the magazine is found to parallel the creative and deliberate framing of the early conservative movement.

SAINT LOUIS UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW JUDICIALIZATION OF POLITICAL CONFLICT: EVIDENCE OF BROWN V. BOARD OF EDUCATION’S EFFECT IN NEWSPAPER OPINION NEAL ALLEN* The United States Supreme Court, with its landmark racial integration case, Brown v. Board of Education,1 stimulated a heated debate in the editorial pages of Southern newspapers. This debate encompassed arguments not just about the rightness or wrongness of the decision, but also included discussion of the roles of courts, states, and law in the American constitutional system. For example, S.F. Moody of Birmingham, Alabama wrote on June 16, 1954 about the proper application of Article V, Section 4 of the US Constitution, the republican guarantee clause: A state is not a republic in which the ruler or group of rulers, dedicated to rule at will, can truly tell the subjects that the sovereignty resides in himself or the group possessed with the powers to rule.
