  • The Community As Entrepreneurial Firm: Common Property Capitalism in Mexican Forest Communities Creates Jobs, Competes in Global Markets, and Conserves Biodiversity
    The Community as Entrepreneurial Firm: Common Property Capitalism in Mexican Forest Communities Creates Jobs, Competes in Global Markets, and Conserves Biodiversity Professor David Barton Bray This article was published previously by Americas Quarterly on February 15, 2010 The Community as an Entrepreneurial Firm 2 Imagine a business with a 384-member board of directors that governs using organizational principles predating the rise of modern capitalism. Imagine as well that this business has a 20-member executive committee that includes the town mechanic and newspaper vendor, and whose monthly meetings can last three days. The business also changes its CEO and other officers every three years, regardless of whether they have done a good job. Sound impractical? In fact, such an enterprise has transformed hundreds of poor Mexican Zapotec indigenous farmers into owners of a multi-million dollar diversified forest industry. A sign posted at the entrance to the enterprise offices sums up its character succinctly: “In this community private property does not exist. The buying and selling of communal lands is prohibited,” The Forest, Agriculture, and Services Communal Enterprise” of Ixtlán de Juarez, a forest community in the Sierra Norte of Oaxaca, an hour north of the city of Oaxaca, evolved from traditional forms of governance developed by the Zapotec ancestors of the people of Ixtlán that were later reinforced with agrarian governance structures mandated by the Mexican government. The structures were designed to run community affairs, not businesses. Nevertheless, Ixtlán, along with many other forest communities in that region of Mexico, have successfully fused communal democratic traditions with the principles of competitive market enterprises to achieve economic equity.

ABSTRACT Title: Black Economic Development as a Strategy for Community Development Author: Susan Starzynski Young Submitted to the Department of Urban Studies and Planning in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of City Planning. Discussion on the current attempts to increase black economic development reveal widely divergent views on the direction the development is expected to take. One view holds that it will lead to a separatist black economy, while another holds that it will produce greater integration. It is anti- cipated both that traditional capitalistic structures and communal structures will be the dominant form of organization. It predicts that development will be large scale and dominated by large corporations and also that it will be insignificant and petty. The future of black communities will, in part, be shaped by the direction economic development takes, especially as goals being established by ghetto political leaders could either be fostered or destroyed by the path economic development takes.

  • Lecture 27 Sociology 621 April 30, 2008 What Is Socialism?
    Lecture 27 Sociology 621 April 30, 2008 What is Socialism? I. What Do Socialists Want? Socialists have traditionally criticized capitalism for the ways in which it violates five central values: 1. Equality: Capitalism generates morally intolerable levels of inequality of material conditions of people. This is especially offensive in its impact on children, but more broadly the levels of material deprivation in a world of affluence generated by capitalism violates a wide range of principles of egalitarian justice held by socialists. 2. Democracy: Capitalism thwarts democracy. By placing the basic economic resources and conditions of investment in hands of private individuals, the capacity of the democratic polity to make decisions about the fate of the community is significantly undermined. 3. Autonomy: Capitalism robs most people of meaningful control over much of their work lives. There is a deep meaning-deficit in most people’s lives because they are pawns in other people’s projects. Capitalism does not merely generate inequality and poverty through exploitation, it generates alienation as well. 4. Community: Capitalism undermines a sense of solidarity among people. As G.A. Cohen has argued, the forms of competition and conflict built into capitalism drive economic activities primarily on the basis of two motives -- greed and fear. Instead of social interaction in economic life being normatively organized around the principle of helping others, it is organized primarily around motive of taking advantage of the weakness of others for one's own gain. This underwrites a culture of selfish individualism and atomism. 5. Efficiency/rationality: This may seem quite odd, but traditionally socialists have criticized capitalism because it was irrational, wasteful and ultimately inefficient.

  • The Political Economy of Food Insecurity in East Asia
    Rice, politics and power: the political economy of food insecurity in East Asia Paul Belesky Master of International Studies (International Relations) The University of Queensland A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Queensland, 2016 School of Political Science and International Studies School of Social Science Abstract This thesis has three main objectives: (1) to provide a critical political economy study of the complex interplay between rice, politics and power in East Asia; (2) to make a contribution to understanding the evolution of the regional and global food system through an historically-contextualised exploration of the political economy of rice in the East Asian region; and (3) to make a contribution towards an alternative analytical framework for the political economy of food insecurity in the region. This study focuses on the agricultural commodity of rice as a prism through which to examine and explore the complex and multidimensional nature of food insecurity in the region, with rice providing a lens through which to explore social relations and relations of power that underpin the political economy of food and agriculture. This study has identified a gap in literature in relation to a contemporary analysis of the political economy of rice, with a second gap appearing in relation to the evolution of the global food system from an East Asian perspective. This thesis aims to make a contribution towards addressing these gaps in literature. With these objectives in mind, this thesis responds

  • Technobureaucratic Capitalism
    Luiz Carlos Bresser-Pereira TECHNOBUREAUCRATIC CAPITALISM São Paulo, 1990 2004 Introductory Note This book began with the translation, by Marcia Van Dyke, of my book A Sociedade Estatal e a Tecnoburocracia (São Paulo, Editora Brasiliense, 1981). A first version of it was submitted in 1983 to Cambridge University Press. After several months, the editor showed interest in the publication of the book, provided that I introduced major changes. Yet, in the meantime, I was called to political life, and was unable to make the required changes. In December 1987 I returned to academic life, and, after some time, reworked the originals, introducing the initial discussion of the state, and revising several parts, so as to become an integrated book instead of a collection of essays. This 1990 version was sent back to Cambridge University Press, but at that time they had lost the interest. This version was completed in mid 1990, when the collapse of Soviet Union was under way. It already acknowledged the breakdown of communism, but the disinterest of the publishing house let clear to me that more changes were required if I really wanted to publish the book in English. For years the ‘manuscript’ remained in my archives in digital form. Finally, in 2004, when I returned to the theme of this book by writing the paper “The Strategic Factor of Production in Technicians’ Capitalism” to be presented to the ‘John Kenneth Galbraith International Symposium’, to be held in Paris, September 23-25, I ‘rediscovered’ Technobureaucratic Capitalism. Since I have no short term plan of reworking the book¸ I decided to publish it in my web page in the original form.

    Sed Com 05 11/18/05 9:55 AM Page 101 5 The Sinister Political Life of Community Economies of Violence and Governable Spaces in the Niger Delta, Nigeria Michael Watts We seek to recover the…life of the community, as neither the “before” nor the “after” picture of any great human transformation.…We see “commu- nities” as creatures with an extraordinary and actually…quite sinister polit- ical life in the ground of real history. Kelly and Kaplan (2001:199) Community is an archetypal “keyword” in the sense deployed by Raymond Williams (1976). A “binding” word, suturing certain activities and their interpretation, community is also “indicative” (Williams’s term once again) in certain forms of thought. Deployed in the lan- guage for at least five hundred years, the word community has carried a range of senses denoting actual groups (for example, “commoners” or “workers”) and connoting specific qualities of social relationship (as in communitas). By the nineteenth century, community was, of course, invoked as a way of talking about much larger issues, about modernity itself. Community—and its sister concepts of tradition and custom— now stood in sharp contrast to the more abstract, instrumental, individ- uated, and formal properties of state or society in the modern sense. A related shift in usage subsequently occurred in the twentieth century, when community came to refer to a form or style of politics distinct from the formal repertoires of national or local politics. Here the ref- erence was direct politics, community participation and organization, often but not always populist in orientation, typically working with and 101 Sed Com 05 11/18/05 9:55 AM Page 102 Michael Wat ts for “the people.” At this historical moment we are awash in communi- ties of this kind; in fact the “self-governing community” is one of the defining formulations of neoliberal rule (Schofield 2002).

It is argued that assessment of reform performance might be very misleading if it is not recognized that economic reforms are just a small part of large scale of constitutional transition. Rivalry and competition between states and between political forces within each country are the driving forces for constitutional transition. We use Russia as an example of economic reforms associated with constitutional transition and China as an example of economic reforms in the absence of constitutional transition to examine features and problems in the two patterns of transition.

Against a backdrop of multiple social changes, there is a new era of social reproduction based on the interplay between a politics of post-waged work and a politics of community, involving activities outside the realms of market, state and family. Whereas the implications of family- based care work have long been highlighted, the community-based political economy of the ‘post- wage regime’ has yet to be analysed. Taking Germany as an example, the article describes how the state is actively involved in promoting and exploiting post-waged work. At the same time, community projects and grassroots activities contribute to the social reproduction of livelihoods, often becoming an active part of the precarious post-wage regime. The question is raised whether or not these interweaving developments herald a new era of community capitalism. Keywords community, conviviality, post-wage politics, precarity, resistance, social reproduction, volunteering Introduction Much has been written about precarious work and job insecurity, with particular atten- tion being paid to the deregulation of waged labour. This article shifts the focus beyond precarious paid employment to look at the governance and practice of non-waged work that contributes to maintaining the public infrastructure and securing livelihoods.

This paper attempts to explain the contradictions in China’s development and discusses whether and how they can be redressed. Specifically, the paper analyses the key issues around the debate over the China model – how distinctive it is and whether it can be replicated elsewhere, and what real lessons can be drawn from China’s rise. It proposes a more nuanced view of the economic, social, and political structures in China with a focus on its mixed economy, the role of the state at both the central and local levels, and the possibility of Chinese-style democracy. It also offers suggestions for improving the China model. KEYWORDS: development, Beijing Consensus, China model, China’s rise, neoliberalism. hina’s increasing rise in the world is often juxtaposed against its bumpy road for many developing countries (e.g., in Latin America and sub- mounting domestic problems.
