Cognitive Capitalism and its Reflections in South-Eastern Europe (Sozio-ökonomische Perspektiven in Südosteuropa / Socio-Economic Perspectives in South-Eastern Europe) By Vladimir Cvijanovic (editor), Andrea Fumagalli (editor), Carlo Vercellone (editor)
2010 | 240 Pages | ISBN: 3631604610 | PDF | 3 MB
Cognitive capitalism is considered to be a new stage in the historical evolution of capitalism which is undergoing a metamorphosis affecting most of the laws and tendencies characteristic of industrial capitalism. This raises a series of issues tackled in the theoretical part, especially regarding the increased importance of cognitive work and the new composition of the labour market that influence the determinants of the value of goods, the structure of welfare, and the forms of income distribution. A historical analysis is applied to describe the evolution of cognitive capitalism and its endogenous, potentially destabilising, dynamics. The empirical part analyses the diffusion of cognitive capitalism in the former socialist countries of South-Eastern Europe and elsewhere.
Nadine Ansorg, "Co-operation, Contestation and Complexity in Peacebuilding: Post-Conflict Security Sector Reform"
English | ISBN: 0367637561 | 2020 | 134 pages | EPUB | 881 KB
Security Sector Reform (SSR) remains a key feature of peacebuilding interventions and is usually undertaken by a state alongside national and international partners. External actors engaged in SSR tend to follow a normative agenda that often has little regard for the context in post-conflict societies. Despite recurrent criticism, SSR practices of international organisations and bilateral donors often remain focused on state institutions, and often do not sufficiently attend to alternative providers of security or existing normative frameworks of security.

Kevin Anderson, "Class, gender, race and colonialism: The 'intersectionality' of Marx"
English | ISBN: 1988832632 | 2020 | 33 pages | EPUB | 274 KB
It is important to see both Marx's brilliant generalisations about capitalist society and the very concrete ways in which he examined not only class, but also gender, race, and colonialism, and what today would be called the intersectionality of all of these. His underlying revolutionary humanism was the enemy of all forms of abstraction that denied the variety and multiplicity of human experience, especially as his vision extended outward from Western Europe. For these reasons, no thinker speaks to us today with such force and clarity. It is clear today that the emancipation of labour from capitalist alienation and exploitation is a task that still confronts us. Marx's concept of the worker is not limited to European white males, but includes Irish and Black super-exploited and therefore doubly revolutionary workers, as well as women of all races and nations. But, his research and his concept of revolution go further, incorporating a wide range of agrarian non-capitalist societies of his time, from India to Russia and from Algeria to the Indigenous peoples of the Americas, often emphasising their gender relations. In his last, still partially unpublished writings, he turns his gaze Eastward and Southward. In these regions outside Western Europe, he finds important revolutionary possibilities among peasants and their ancient communistic social structures, even as these are being undermined by their formal subsumption under the rule of capital. In his last published text, he envisions an alliance between these non-working-class strata and the Western European working class.
