How do socialist views differ from those of, say, liberals, conservatives or anarchists? This book examines the substantive ideas and beliefs of the major political ideologies. This introductory chapter refl ects on the nature of political ideology. It does so by exam- ining the role of ideas in politics, the life and (sometimes convoluted) times of the concept of ideology, the structure of ideological thought, the extent to which ideologies conform to a left/right divide, and the changing landscape of political ideologies. In the process, it discusses issues such as why and when a body of political thought should be classifi ed as an ideology (as well as what this implies) and whether there is evidence that so-called ‘new’ ideologies are in the process of displacing the ‘classical’ ideologies of old. The notion of the end of ideology is examined in Chapter 12. Copyrighted material – 9781137606013 Copyrighted material – 9781137606013 2 CHAPTER 1 The role of ideas Not all political thinkers have accepted that ideas and ideologies are of much importance. Politics has sometimes been thought to be little more than a naked struggle for power. If this is true, political ideas are mere propaganda, a form of words or collection of slogans designed to win votes or attract popular support. Ideas and ideologies are therefore simply ‘window dressing’, used to conceal the deeper realities of political life. The opposite argument has also been put, however. The UK economist John Maynard Keynes (1883–1946), for example, argued that the world is ruled by little other than the ideas of economic theorists and political philosophers. As he put it in the closing pages of his General Theory: Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellec- tual influences, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist. Madmen in authority, who hear voices in the air, are distilling their frenzy from some academic scribbler of a few years back. (Keynes [1936] 1963) This position highlights the degree to which beliefs and theories provide the wellspring of human action. The world is ultimately ruled by ‘academic scribblers’. Such a view suggests, for instance, that modern capitalism (see p. 97) developed, in important respects, out of the classical economics of Adam Smith (see p. 52) and David Ricardo (1772–1823), that Soviet communism was shaped significantly by the writing of Karl Marx (see p. 124) and V. I. Lenin (see p. 124), and that the history of Nazi Germany can only be understood by reference to the doctrines advanced in Adolf Hitler’s

  • 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.

  • Corporatism, Informality and Democracy in the Streets of Mexico City
    Corporatism, Informality and Democracy in the Streets of Mexico City Enrique de la Garza Toledo, Autonomous Metropolitan University, Mexico José Luis Gayosso Ramírez, Autonomous University of Querétaro, Mexico Leticia Pogliaghi, National Autonomous University of Mexico, Mexico ABSTRACT While the end of corporatism has been frequently announced, we argue that in Mexico it persists under contemporary neo-liberalism, albeit with new characteristics. To explore these characteristics, we use the concept of corporatism in a broader sense. That is, we assume that it not only involves relationships between trade unions, business associations and the state, but also with other civil society organisations. For our study, this includes informal worker organisations, in particular of taxi drivers and street vendors. We analyse these organisations, their relationship with the work itself (especially the occupation of public space) and their linkages with local government. We conclude that while some organisations remain independent of government control, many are imbricated in corporate relationships with the state, giving rise to an informal corporatism. Finally, we reflect on the special features this informal corporatism shows. KEY WORDS Corporatism; informality; work conditions; political relationships; democracy Introduction The issue of corporatism was widely discussed during the 1970s and 1980s, based on the famous article by Schmitter (1979). Such was its impact that it inaugurated a wholesale change in political scientists' conceptualisation of governability, as well as in the study of the relationship between politics and the economy in capitalism (Wiarda, 2004). With the arrival of neo-liberalism, it was suggested that corporatism would be exhausted when it came into conflict with the conceptions of economic self-regulation and the quest for equilibrium (Wiarda, 2009).

  • Confessions of a Right-Wing Liberal
    • 1 n ofaRight-Wing Liberal veteran publicist John T. Flynn-once praised as a liberal and then condemned as a reactionary, with little or no change in his views-inveighed implacably in print and over the radio against militarism and the draft. Even the Wall Street news­ paper, the Commercial and Financial Chronicle, published a lengthy attack on the idea ofconscription. All of our political positions, from the free market in economics to opposing war and militarism, stemmed from our root belief in individual liberty and our opposition to the state. Simplistically, we adopted the standard view of the political spectrum: "left" meant socialism, or total power of the state; the further "right" one went the less government one favored. Hence, we called ourselves "extreme rightists." Originally, our historical heroes were such men as Jefferson, Paine, Cobden, Bright and Spencer; but as our views became purer and more consistent, we eagerly embraced such near­ anarchists as the voluntarist, Auberon Herbert, and the Amer­ ican individualist-anarchists, Lysander Spooner and Benjamin R. Tucker. One of our great intellectual heroes was Henry David Thoreau, and his essay, "Civil Disobedience," was one of our guiding stars. Right-wing theorist Frank Chodorov devoted an entire issue of his monthly, Analysis, to an WENTY YEARS AGO I was an extreme right-wing appreciation of Thoreau.

  • 'Illusory Corporatism' Ten Years Later
    Warsaw Forum of Economic Sociolog y 2:1(3) Spring 2011 Warsaw School of Economics; Collegium of Socio-Economics; Department of Economic Sociolog y ‘Illusory Corporatism’ Ten Years Later David Ost* Abstract Ten years after the publication of ‘Illusory Corporatism in Eastern Europe’, the author re-examines his claim that tripartite arrangements introduced in the region after 1989 served chiefly as a façade for introducing neoliberal policies undermining labour interests. He finds that tripartism still produces meagre results, and that most of what labour has gained has come from better organisation, smarter use of resources, and increased militancy, not from tripartism. While ‘illusory corporatism’ is sustained in Eastern Europe, it is advancing elsewhere in the world. He looks at Latin America and Asia, which resemble 1990s Eastern Europe, as governments introduce tripartism at crisis moments in order to win labour commitments to cutbacks. As for Western Europe, where many scholars have seen an advancement of corporatism because of the signing of pacts in countries where the traditional preconditions were lacking, the author argues that this corporatism is ‘illusory’ because pacts are made to secure labour’s acceptance to the corrosion of union power and a decline in labour conditions. Standards of corporatism have been systematically ratcheted down. Many scholars see ‘corporatism’ wherever agreements are signed, whereas an outcome-based approach, proposed by the author in his original article, leads to a characterization of ‘illusory corporatism’. Just over ten years ago, I published an article titled ‘Illusory Corporatism in Eastern Europe’, which argued that the tripartite commissions then popular in the postcommunist world, which brought together representatives of business, labour and the state, were being used not to facilitate real bargaining over interests between employers and workers, or to give labour a role in shaping industrial and social policy in the region.

December 2014 Copyright © 2014 Stellenbosch University of Stellenbosch All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT In this study the aim is to examine what the impact of the imbalance in the power dynamics between the state, business and labour is on corporatist institutions in South Africa and South Korea. In both countries, the corporatist institutions have failed to bring the actors together and to resolve the various issues as these institutions were expected to do. When looking at the establishment of corporatist institutions in the two countries it is clear that the state had to incorporate the interests of labour in their decision-making process due to the increasing power of labour during the democratisation process. However, the current situation proves that the corporatist institutions in South Africa and South Korea have faced various problems. Therefore why the corporatist institutions in the two countries have not functioned properly is explored in this study.

  • Simultaneously Deepening Corporatism and Advancing Neoliberalism: Australia Under the Accord
    Simultaneously deepening corporatism and advancing neoliberalism: Australia under the Accord Abstract Given recent calls for a new social contract between the unions and government, it is timely to consider the relationship of the ALP and ACTU prices and incomes Accord (1983-1997) to the construction of neoliberalism in Australia. Contrary to most scholarly accounts, which posit the ALP and ACTU prices and incomes Accord (1983-1997) and neoliberalism as exogenously-related or competing processes, this article argues they were internally-related aspects of economic transformation. The implementation of the Accord agreement deepened Australia’s existing corporatist arrangements while simultaneously advancing neoliberalism within a highly structured political-economic framework. Keywords Neoliberalism, Accord, Australia, corporatism, Gramsci Autobiographical note Elizabeth Humphrys, PhD, is a lecturer at the University of Technology Sydney. Her recent doctoral thesis analysed the implementation of neoliberalism in Australia, and its relationship to the ALP and ACTU Accord. Her latest research is on the phenomenon of anti-politics. Introduction In his ground-breaking work Economic Rationalism in Canberra (1991), Michael Pusey investigated the recasting of the Australian political economy along neoliberal (or economic rationalist1) lines in the 1 Initially neoliberalism was called ‘economic rationalism’ in Australia, terms treated as synonymous by many authors (Frankel 1997) and in this article.
