books i bought today

[Sasha]

sometimes its just more exciting to talk about books you still have to read than about those you already did.

a thread to share your excitement about the books you just bought or got, be it political or fiction, a thread to draw inspiration from for your own reading list but also a thread to praise or rip someones choices if you already read said books.

allow me to kick of with my purchases of the day:

- Black Flame - the revolutionary class politics of anarchism and syndicalism
by michael schmidt and lucien van der walt

apperently another classic that i never read, looks very complete (and thus also very long) from the first looks of it, will probably end up on my to do list for a while longer :)

- the choice for the insurrection
by alfredo m. bonanno

pollitical essays by a bankrobbing insurrectionary grandpa, how cool is this going to be? all this fox people worried about sizek? they must get really worried if the occupy kids would jump on this train. :ninja:

- black mask & up against the wall motherfucker

a collection with all the works of the infamous sittuationist groups plus a bunch of background articles and interviews. something for my situationist arty heart. :redstar2000:

- introduction to civil war
by tiqqun

another book by the lovely tiqqun collective that i probably wont understand yet still just needed to have. jargon heavy post modernist post autonomist post surrealist insurectionary prose to sit on my desk next to my new imac. :confused: / :cool:

- at daggers drawn with the existent and other texts

most text in this booklet i already have but they are all in sloppy zine form instead of a nice, good readable, binded book.
more exiting insurrectionary propaganda but now, like bonnano, written in understandable accesible language as we are ussed to from our italian comrades instead of that phd french stuff from tiqqun. :drool:

thoughts?

[coda]

as an A myself, they all look good to me. Haven't read any of them.

I'm reading a book about neuroscience research of internet technology and what it does to your brain.

[TheGodlessUtopian]

I have so many book to read it isn't even funny.While lately I have been on a reading spree there are still a great many that are currently threatening to keep me locked in my room for the next couple years.

Will be moving on to Marxist texts soon... so,back to Das Kapital (hopefully my attention span holds this time).

[Sasha]

I've read The Coming Insurrection, but I've been meaning to read up on some more Insurrectionist works out of curiosity. Post a review later after you read them! I'm curious about how they are.

"Introduction to civil war" is in all likelihood written by the same people as the coming insurrection and very related. At daggers drawn with the existent is way more accessible, f

Just bought The Island by Aldous Huxley and Homage to Catalonia by George Orwell. Started Homage to Catalonia the other night. Interesting so far. Funny at times, too.

Never read the island, homage is really nice

[x359594]

Black Flame is the first volume of a two volume study of anarcho-syndicalism (I doubt that the second volume will appear any time soon.) It's very good but begins with the controversial proposition that anarcho-syndicalism is the only viable and relevent form of anarchism and dismisses Godwin, Proudhon and the individualist anarchists.

Island (sic) is Aldous Huxley's last novel and is about a journalist who visits a fictitious non-aligned island nation in the Indonesian archipelago. Huxley brought together already existing alternative forms of social organization and synthesized them. He describes alternative forms of sexuality, political economy, medicine , technology, etc. as a counterpoise to capitalism and state socialism. An interesting but didactic book.

Homage to Catalonia is a key work for readers of Orwell in as much as it describes the circumstances that led to other Animal Farm and 1984. It's also a vivid account of the revolution and civil war.

As for Das Kapital, you might consider reading (or watching on line) David Harvey's A Companion to Marx's Capital. It's worth the effort.

[TheGodlessUtopian]

As for Das Kapital, you might consider reading (or watching on line) David Harvey's A Companion to Marx's Capital. It's worth the effort.

I own the book and was reading it alongside watching and taking notes on David Harvey's youtube video series on Capital.I was making decent progress in understanding but was distracted by other commitments and decided to shelf reading through,and understanding,Marx's capital project for another time.

This time I am more determined to get through it so I will be heading back relatively soon and familiarizing with such works.

Thanks for the reminder though. :)

Actually, that is not completely accurate.

Black Flame does not argue that individualist anarchism is not viable and not relevant, but that it's not anarchism at all. And also, they do not favour 'anarcho-syndicalism' as such.

-------------------

For me, I am looking forward to Accumulation of Freedom (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=85712689919) by various authors on anarchist economics.

[The Young Pioneer]

Cool thread. :thumbup1: I was a total Huxley-head in high school.

Has anyone read Ten Days That Shook the World (Reed)? I have it but haven't read it yet. Worth it?

I went on a buying spree myself, today. This new year's resolution of reading 200 books before 2013 is kicking my ass- I've only read three so far. But here's to changing that! I've been making a list of works as people recommend them to me, so today I bought...

-Master and Margarita (Bulgakov)
-Art of War (Sun Tzu)
-Paradise Lost (Milton)
-Madame Bovary (Flaubert)
-We (Zamyatin)
-Orlando Furioso (Ariosto)
-The Inheritors (Golding)

Books. :wub:

[Sasha]

paradise lost rocks, takes some yime to get into the flow but then its awsome

[x359594]

...Has anyone read Ten Days That Shook the World (Reed)?...

It's a vivid piece of journalism. Beware redacted versions though. If you can find it, the Vintage Books edition with an introduction by Bertram Gross is complete.

[Ravachol]

"Introduction to civil war" is in all likelihood written by the same people as the coming insurrection and very related.

In the same vein, I also recommend 'This is not a Program' (http://libcom.org/library/not-program) by Tiqqun and L'appel (Call) (http://littleblackcart.com/Appel-Call-UK.html) by the Invisible Committee

Regarding insurrectionary anarchism:

Batko Group's DISSIDENT #2 (http://www.batko.se/en_dissident.php#issue2)
From Riot to Insurrection (http://www.motarbetaren.se/insurrection_raven/en_texts/from_riot_to_insurrection.html)
Signals of Disorder (http://theanarchistlibrary.org/HTML/A._G._Schwarz__Signals_of_Disorder__Sowing_Anarchy _in_the_Metropolis.html)

[A Revolutionary Tool]

I just bought $100 worth of books today:
The Civil War in France-Marx
Worker's Council-Pannekoek
Ours to Master and to Own- Immanuel Ness and Dario Azzellini
Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy-Marx
Reform or Revolution-Luxemburg
The Mass Strike-Luxemburg
The State and Revolution-Lenin
The 18th Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte-Marx
Critique of the Gotha Program-Marx
Fascism:What it is and how to fight it-Trotsky

*EDIT*
I accidentally ordered two sets of a Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy *facepalm*. I wasn't even buying it for myself but for my cousin who wanted it. Well I got a copy now too I guess lol.

[TheGodlessUtopian]

Lets see, books that I want to start reading....

Look to Windward by Iain M Banks
Capital by Marx
Post War by Tony Jundt
The Zinn Reader by Howard Zinn
The Talisman by Stephen King
Embracing Defeat by Dower
Embassytown by China Melville
At Swim, Two Boys by Jamie O' Neill

Yup, plenty and to be sure there is plenty more...

[Aloysius]

I've started Capital twice, now, and couldn't get through the second chapter. I've been considering reading some stuff by Bakunin and Trotsky, but I don't think there's anything my them in the school library.

Got The Basics of Sociology on New Years, and it seems easy enough to read, so I'll get to that after I finish the Wheel of Time series and The Hunger Games.

[x359594]

Lets see, books that I want to start reading...Embracing Defeat by Dower...

Excellent book. Should be followed by The Allied Occupation of Japan by Takemae Eiji (Dower wrote the introduction.)

[Leftsolidarity]

I'm in the process of reading a number of books. My 2 main ones at the moment are:

Low-wage Capitalism
The Roots of Lesbian & Gay Oppression (originally published as The Gay Question)

[NoOneIsIllegal]

Black Flame does not argue that individualist anarchism is not viable and not relevant, but that it's not anarchism at all. And also, they do not favour 'anarcho-syndicalism' as such.
While they were sympathic to anarcho-syndicalism, I've heard a lot of claims that both authors are Platformists. Either way, it's one of my favorite books of all time.

For me, I am looking forward to Accumulation of Freedom (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=85712689919) by various authors on anarchist economics.Same here. The first book I have ever pre-ordered. I'm antsy to get it!

I recently bought "Anarchism: A Documentary History of Libertarian Ideas" and have been thumbing through it here and there. I plan on reading "Late Victorian Holocausts" on my next off-days.

[Arm Cathartha na hÉireann]

Just got Lenin's economic Writings for £2.20 off amazon and Life and Terror in Stalin's Russia by Robert Thurston.

Looking to get 'Malcom X, Black Liberation and Road to workers Power by Jack Barnes soon. Flicked through it in a book shop and looked very interesting.

[kurr]

The Roots of Lesbian &amp Gay Oppression (originally published as The Gay Question)

I've read that. It's decent.

[Leftsolidarity]

I've been meaning to read that

[TheGodlessUtopian]

I've read that. It's decent.

It is indeed good, it told me quite a bit I didn't know.

[Rooster]

I recently bought the three volumes of The Bolshevik Revolution by E.H. Carr second hand. Too bad I've still got a pile of books like 6 feet high to go through first :(


Has anyone read Ten Days That Shook the World (Reed)? I have it but haven't read it yet. Worth it?

Yeah. You bought it anyway, so you may as well read it. Also check out the film they made of it called Reds.

[x359594]

... Also check out the film they made of it [Ten Days That Shook the World] called Reds.

Reds is not an adaptation of Ten Days That Shook the World; it's a bio-pic about John Reed.

There's a 1967 Granada Television documentary with narration by Orson Welles called Ten Days That Shook the World made on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Revolution and credits Reed's book as a source. It covers the background and causes of the Revolution as well as the Revolution itself.

[GatesofLenin]

Got a few weeks ago the book "History of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union". I highly recommend it.

[Ostrinski]

Rosa Luxemburg Speaks
Essential Works of Lenin
Thomas Paine: Collected Writings

Subtotal: 70 bucks

Fuck you B&N.

[The Young Pioneer]

Went to a dollar store today. Didn't realise they sell nice hardcovers for a buck a piece. I've been at it again. :wub:

Today I bought...

-Rock and Roll Jihad: A Muslim Rock Star's Revolution
-The Gamble (Some pro-war shit about Iraq)
-Murdered By Capitalism (to counteract my guilt for the prior)
-The Facts Behind the Helsinki Roccamatios
-Death Is Not Always The Winner (Landau on Cuba)

No idea about any of these- If anyone's heard about them, I'd love opinions.

Also got The Guinea Pig Diaries by one of my heroes, A. J. Jacobs.

[A Revolutionary Tool]

Are you kidding me? What the hell kind of dollar store sells books? Especially books like "killed by capitalism"?

[The Young Pioneer]

Yeah, I had no idea either. It was a Dollar Tree.

[TheGodlessUtopian]

Are you kidding me? What the hell kind of dollar store sells books? Especially books like "killed by capitalism"?

You would be surprised about what you can find at dollar stores and other cheap/used item stores;DVDs are incredibly cheap,and I have found some rare ones for me,and you can find quite the interesting books there.It is kind of cool what you can find when looking in places other than the big chains.

[Goblin]

Just ordered Das Kapital by Marx and should get it in a couple of days. I would love some books by Trotsky, like the revolution betrayed, but i cant find any in norwegian. Marxist Internet Archive has a lot of his writings in my language, but i hate having to read them of my computer. Makes my fucking eyes melt!

Well you seem proficient enough in English.

[TrotskistMarx]

VERY TRUE WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT MOTIVATING OURSELVES AND TALKING ABOUT THE BOOKS WE ARE READING !! Humans are motivation oriented creatures. And book-reading is just like weight lifting, playing guitar, and baseball. In fact that's why most people love bodybuilding and weight training move to bodybuilding states like California and Florida. And most people who love baseball, move to Sarasota, Florida. What I mean is that it is very good, productive, and progressive to talk about the books we read, to motivate ourselves in the books we are reading, or in any other activity.

I love weight training, and book-reading, and I live in the state of Tennessee, a state where there is not much book-reading and weight lifting habits in the general population of this state. So sometimes I feel like Robinson Crusoe, in a lonely island when I am lifting weights in this sedentary state. haha

Good luck with your new books !!

You know the website marxists.org have lots of free books there.

Thanx !!!

I recently purchased Salt: A World History, Bad Astronomy, and Asphalt Nation with money from my birthday. I've already read the last, because I've been looking forward to it for a while. Excellent book on how automobile culture and sprawl have led to the rotting of American cities and to decline in social, political, environmental, and physical health as well as contributing to a rise in social injustice. Of course, the author also addresses the obvious point that automobile culture makes us even more dependent on oil.

Actually, my most recent acquisitions are paperback copies of John Grisham's A Time to Kill and Runaway Jury. They were in the local library for a quarter each, and since my own copy of ATTK is ruined and I only have RJ in hardback, I figured why not? I haven't read ATTK in ten years and was surprised to find that the viewpoint character isn't terribly sympathetic.

ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS

http://i.imgur.com/rtg8q.jpg

[Caj]

Last weekend I purchased Possibilities by David Graeber, The Permanent Revolution and Results and Prospects by Leon Trotsky, and Mao's Road to Power Vol. 1. The last one I got at a used book store in almost perfect condition for $25. I looked up the book online, and it's apparently a $200 book. :cool:

[Workers-Control-Over-Prod]

Well, i have so many books to read, but worse, to finish. To everyone who has yet to read Marx's Kapital, i recommend you first read Marx's "Free Trade" essay and "Wages Price and Profit" to first get used to his way of writing and getting a glimpse of how Marx will go on through Capital. Also, i recommend starting to read Das Kapital not from chapter one (it kind of shakes you off) but from chapter two and then once you've gone through two three go back to reading chapter one, you might want to discuss some of its contents here as well.

As to what i'm reading or about to read, here is my half-finished book list:
State and Revolution, Lenin
Empire of Shame, Jean Ziegler
Class Theory and History;Capitalism and communism in the USSR, Wolff/Resnick (I just started reading to page 50 the last two days, ggrr...)
Die Grenzen des Marktes [The Boundaries of the Market], Rosa Luxemburg

And i have yet to start:
Stalin and the Question of 'Market Socialism' in the USSR, essay
Empire, Hardt/Negri
Hegemony or Survival; America's Quest for Global Dominance, Chomsky
Cocaine, Death Squads and the War on Terror; US Imperialism and Class Struggle in Colombia, cantrememberthename
The Failure of Capitalist Production, Andrew Kliman

Well, as you see, i have an insane amount of books and im a slow reader, so it takes me at least a week to two weeks to finish a book. I am though very excited about reading Kliman's book and finally finishing Lenin's State and Revolution, which has been sitting around since a few months already.

[OHumanista]

ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS

http://i.imgur.com/rtg8q.jpg

yes

Cool, just don't buy the pro Liu Bei bias the author has. He was definitly the worst ruler of the late Three Kingdoms period. (Cao Cao being a far more competent ruler than everyone else on that time) - (Class analysis - Liu Bei was a lot more aligned with the traditional nobility than peasant oriented contrary to what the book shows, though you can probably deduce that from the fact he claimed to be merely continuing the Han dynasty) :D(History geek too much?)

Anyway I will probably proceed and finish reading all of Marx's major works soon and move on to Lenin.

James Connolly: Selected writings.

Treated myself as its nearly £20 from Plutp Press but looking forward to reading it and its definitely one to keep.

Amazing how I was debating buying it for so long because it was nearly twenty quid. I was looking at it on the internet for weeks thinking it was too dear.

[Railyon]

Was it printed in that year making it an original copy or is that just from when it was written?

Printed that year. 22nd edition (??? who the hell would revise a book that often?).

I don't think Kautsky works have ever been reprinted, and there's no collected works of him as far as I know. Most scans of Kautsky books I've seen seem to be from the pre-1930s era, as they have that old-ass hard-to-read font (like this book, it kinda makes reading it harder than understanding it lol...)

It's also in pristine condition. I feel like a gold digger...

[x359594]

...Have you read them[One Dimensional Man and The Culture of Narcissism] yourself? If so, would you like to posit your critical opinion?

Marcuse's ideas are much closer to mine than Lasch's. They both criticize late capitalism with Marcuse taking a Marxist position by way of the Frankfurt School so where alienation is a paramount concept, and Lasch from the position of liberal humanism. Marcuse's one dimensional man is similar Lasch's late capitalist narcissist, but for Marcuse the problem is the logic of the capitalist circulation process while for Lasch it's the overabundance of consumer goods that have to be consumed to keep the machine running.

In some respects the books complement each other. Finally, Marcuse's writing is informed by dialectical materialism that he expresses in a dense style (it's not an easy read) and Lasch writes from the empiricist position of the US social sciences of his day.

Down and out in Paris and London - George Orwell

It describes the role Of mushrooms and other drugs on human evolution and society, and compares the values of partnership societies to dominator societies

What is the book Capital about?

Is Marx talking about surplus?

It's about capitalism. Marx explains how it works, although it's in the abstract. It's a huge book, and the language isn't very accessible. Still, it's probably not the most difficult book out there. I'm reading it now, but it's going slow due to the academic language (which also isn't in my mother tongue - I'm reading it in English) and school work.

The Voyage of the Beagle-Darwin
Che's diaries for when he was in Bolivia and the Congo.
I'd like to get a book on evolution that is pretty recent if anybody has any suggestions. And by recent I mean like 2000's recent.

[Caj]

I've gotten a number of books recently including:

Western Marxism and the Soviet Union

Volume I of E. H. Carr's The Bolshevik Revolution

Limited Wants, Unlimited Means: A Reader on Hunter-Gatherer Economics and the Environment

Not in Our Genes: Biology, Ideology, and Human Nature

I've started Capital twice, now, and couldn't get through the second chapter. I've been considering reading some stuff by Bakunin and Trotsky, but I don't think there's anything my them in the school library.

Got The Basics of Sociology on New Years, and it seems easy enough to read, so I'll get to that after I finish the Wheel of Time series and The Hunger Games.

I've just got my hands on David Harvey's A Companion to Marx's Capital.

Harvey's The Enigma of Capital hugely impressed me as a work of serious contemporary Marxist analysis yet written in an easy to follow style.

[Redbing]

American Tabloid

Im looking forward some Karl Marx books, any tips on that?

[Ostrinski]

American Tabloid

Im looking forward some Karl Marx books, any tips on that?Red & Black's Writings of Karl Marx.

Pending on what you read David Harvey can be a good study aid.His "Companion to Capital" is great.

I don't think I've ever bought a book in my entire life. I get most of my stuff from the public library.

Received today "The Revolution Betrayed" by Leon Trotsky. Don't know when I will start on it.Probably not for a while.

[Blackjack]

Just got a copy of The Penultimate Truth by Philip K. Dick and a copy of Animal Liberation which I look forward to reading.

[IAmNotTamerlane]

Er, today I received The Islamophobia Industry How the Right Manufactures Fear of Muslims by Nathan Lean and Comparative Government and Politics An Introduction by Rod Hague and Martin Harrop. I look forward to reading The Islamophobia Industry, but apparantly it glosses over the Liberal contribution to Islamophobia, which doesn't bother me as I also have Deepa Kumar's Islamophobia and the Politics of Empire which doesn't.

Over the last week I've recieved a few books, actually. Books 1-3 in AK Press' Working Classics series, biographies of Lenin and Trotsky (though I bought these from a local second-hand book shop), Edward Said's Orientalism, an anthology of Kropotkin's revolutionary pamphlets, Gene Sharp's From Dictatorship to Democracy and a new old copy of Godwin's Enquiry Concerning Political Justice.

Oh, and The Penguin Book of Gaslight Crime.

Yup - I'm a reader. I'm sure I've missed a couple.

[Per Levy]

well all of the books of the 3 books i just bought i mostly bought because they were cheap to a point that i needed to get them now before the price would increase again.

Ragged Trousered Philanthropists - always thought it would be to long for me and i still had doubts about my reading english, then again i breath through the song of ice and fire series without problems so i should be able to read this one just fine.

a short story collection of Stefan Grabinski: "modern" horror(1920s) about trains, trainstations and all that. sounds interesting and i hope its really good, i need some good horror that isnt lovecraft.

Philipp Buonarotti's Gracchus Babeuf and the Conspiracy of the equals: a books i wanted for a long time but was always so expensive but yesterday i saw it was just for a few € and got it right away, buonarotti was close to babeuf and part of the conspiracy of the equals.

[No_Leaders]

Just ordered a few books from Ak press!

The Origin Of Capitalism: A Longer View by Ellen Meiksins Wood

The above is a good book.

I have been reading Zizek lately. The guy is entertaining and has some interesting observations here and there, but that is about it. He is at his worst when he yaps on about Hegel or Lacanm at his best talking about movies.

[TheIrrationalist]

I'm going to buy, in the next few days, William Blake's The complete writings of William Blake, and Capital 1-3.

Reclinable chairs: One of the most important weapons to destroy capitalism, they are great for reading leftist books

Good and cool books. You know many people have lost their book-reading habits, book-reading traditions and book-reading stamina because in the last years, the whole world has been shifting from a system of reading printed material, toward a system of getting knowledge from audio and videos, in which people are still reading of course (Reading e-mails, chats etc), but people do not read long texts anymore, and relying on videos and audio as sources of information from internet, mobile phones, and TV.

But it is good to see people in this website revleft.com who are still relying on regular books as sources of information and knowledge. I love the internet, and technology. But i just cannot give my obsolete tradition of sitting down in a reclinable chair reading a nice book with a cup of espresso coffee or tea.

By the way another impediment toward reading books, is that books are getting real expensive. It is real hard to find a philosophy book for less than 10 dollars anymore


.


.




sometimes its just more exciting to talk about books you still have to read than about those you already did.

a thread to share your excitement about the books you just bought or got, be it political or fiction, a thread to draw inspiration from for your own reading list but also a thread to praise or rip someones choices if you already read said books.

allow me to kick of with my purchases of the day:

- Black Flame - the revolutionary class politics of anarchism and syndicalism
by michael schmidt and lucien van der walt

apperently another classic that i never read, looks very complete (and thus also very long) from the first looks of it, will probably end up on my to do list for a while longer :)

- the choice for the insurrection
by alfredo m. bonanno

pollitical essays by a bankrobbing insurrectionary grandpa, how cool is this going to be? all this fox people worried about sizek? they must get really worried if the occupy kids would jump on this train. :ninja:

- black mask & up against the wall motherfucker

a collection with all the works of the infamous sittuationist groups plus a bunch of background articles and interviews. something for my situationist arty heart. :redstar2000:

- introduction to civil war
by tiqqun

another book by the lovely tiqqun collective that i probably wont understand yet still just needed to have. jargon heavy post modernist post autonomist post surrealist insurectionary prose to sit on my desk next to my new imac. :confused: / :cool:

- at daggers drawn with the existent and other texts

most text in this booklet i already have but they are all in sloppy zine form instead of a nice, good readable, binded book.
more exiting insurrectionary propaganda but now, like bonnano, written in understandable accesible language as we are ussed to from our italian comrades instead of that phd french stuff from tiqqun. :drool:

thoughts?

[Art Vandelay]

Ordered Junky by William S. Burroughs a few days ago. Been meaning to read that forever. Should arrive in a couple of days.

Awesome book. I'd suggest reading his novels in proper order (Junky, Queer, Naked Lunch), but I suppose that isn't necessarily that important, as far as simply enjoying the books goes.

Пикник на обочине or Roadside Picnic. As a total fan of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R Series i can't wait to read it. It's the book the whole franchise is based on. :)


You just became awesome. I love roadside picnic and S.T.A.L.K.E.R., and in fact they're what made me wanna learn Russian.

Never read the book nor played the games but considering how much people I like love them I guess I should give them a try.
Though I still think that no matter how much you like a franchise, getting S.t.a.l.k.e.r. tattooed on a very visible place like a co worker of mine did, esp in prison style stick and poke, might not be the smartest move for your future dating career :lol:

the reading process is a good thing to better-off anyone's mind......
there are two kinds of readers:
1- starter readers who just read for amusement
2- advanced readers who read for understanding and amusement

Very loosely. Don't get me wrong, I think Roadside Picnic is among the best works of SF - among the best works of literature, actually - but it has little to do with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Check out other works by the Strugatskys as well - Beetle in the Anthill, It's Tough to be a God and so on.

[BIXX]

It is true that the games are only loosely based on the book. I still loved both but they have little to do with each other.

[Os Cangaceiros]

A friend of mine bought "Cocaine: An Unauthorized Biography" by Dominic Streatfeild for me recently because they read it and said it would be something I'd be interested in (go figure). I also found the book of Mormon and a pretty big collection of the works of Sigmund Freud for free at the local dump which I picked up on a whim.

I got a book of Gustav Klimt's paintings today (it's called 'Masterpieces of Art'), at a thrift store of all places, for a couple bucks. I only ever knew him as the dude who painted 'The Kiss', which I never liked very much. But looking through some of his other stuff, a lot of it is definitely among the coolest art I have ever seen.

Revolution at Point Zero: Housework, Reproduction, and Feminist Struggle (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1604863331) by Silvia Federici

It is important to recognize that when we speak of housework we are not speaking of a job like other jobs, but we are speaking of the most pervasive manipulation, and the subtlest violence that capitalism has ever perpetrated against any section of the working class. True, under capitalism every worker is manipulated and exploited and his or her relation to capital is totally mystified. THe wage gives the impression of a fair deal: you work and you get paid, hence you and your boss each get what's owed; while in reality the wage, rather than paying for the work you do, hides all the unpaid work that goes into profit. But the wage at least recognizes that you are a worker, and you can bargain and struggle around and against the terms and the quantity of that wage, the terms and the quantity of that work. To have a wage means to be part of a social contract, and there is no doubt concerning its meaning: you work, not because you like it, or because it comes naturally to you, but because it is the only condition under which you are allowed to live. Exploited as you might be, you are not that work. Today you are a postman, tomorrow a cabdriver. All that matters is how much of that work you have to do and how much of that money you can get.

The difference with housework lies in the fact that not only has it been imposed on women, but it has been transformed into a natural attribute of our female physique and personality, an internal need, an aspiration, supposedly coming from the depth of our female character. Housework was transformed into a natural attribute, rather than being recognized as work, because it was destined to be unwaged. Capital had to convince us that it is a natural, unavoidable, and even fulfilling activity to make us accept working without a wage. In turn, the unwaged condition of housework has been the most powerfulw eapon in reinforcing the common assumption that housework is not work, thus preventing women from struggling against it, except in the privatized kitchen-bedroom quarrel that all society agrees to ridicule, thereby further reducing the protagonist of a struggle. We are seen as nagging *****es, not as workers in a struggle.

Yet, how natural it is to be a housewife is shown by the fact that it takes at least twenty years of socialization, day-to-day training, performed by an unwaged mother, to prepare a woman for this role, to convince her that children and husband are the best that she can expect from life. Even so, it hardly succeeds. No matter how well trained we are, few women do not feel cheated when the bride's day is over and they find themselves in front of ad irty sink. Many of us still have the illusion that we marry for love. A lot of us recognize that we marry for money and security; but it ist ime to make it clear that while the love or money involved is very little, the work that awaits us is enormous. This is why older women always tell us, "Enjoy your freedom while you can, buy whatever you want now." But unfortunately it is almost impossible to enjoy any freedom if, from the earliest days of your life, you are trained to be docile, subservient, dependent, and most importantly, to sacrifice yourself and even to get pleasure from it. If you don't like it, it is your problem, your failure, your guilt, and your abnormality.

We must admit that capital has been very successful in hiding our work. It has created a true masterpiece at the expense of women. By denying housework a wage and transforming it into an act of love, capital has killed many birds with one stone. First of all, it has gotten a hell of a lot of work almost for free, and it has made sure that women, far from struggling against it, would seek that work as the best thing in life (the magic words: "Yes, darling, you are a real woman"). At the same time, it has also disciplined the male worker, by making "his" woman dependent on his work and his wage, and trapped him in this discipline by giving him a servant after he himself has done so much serving at the factory of the office. In fact, our role as women is to be the unwaged but happy and most of all loving servants of the "working class," i.e., those strata of the proletariat to which capital was forced to grant more social power. In the same way as god created Eve to give pleasure to Adam, so did capital create the housewife to service the male worker physically, emotionally, and sexually, to raise his children, mend his socks, patch up his ego when it is crushed by the work and the social relations (which are relations of loneliness) that capital has reserved for him. It is precisely this peculiar combination of physical, emotional, and sexual services that are involved in the role women must perform for capital that creates the specific character of that servant which is the housewife, that makes her work so burdensome and at the same time so invisible. It is not an accident, then, if most men start thinking of getting married as soon as they get their first job. This is not only because they can now afford it, but also because having somebody at home who takes care of you is the only condition of not going crazy after a day spent on an assembly line or at a desk. Every woman knows that this is what she should be doing to be a true woman and have a "successful" marriage. And in this case too, the poorer the family the higher the enslavement of the woman, and not simply because of the monetary situation. In fact capital has a dual policy, one for the middle class and one for the working class family. It is no accident that we find the most unsophisticated machismo in the latter: the more blows the man gets at work the more his wife must be trained to absorb them, the more he is allowed to recover his ego at her expense. You beat your wife and vent your rage against her when you are frustrated or overtired by your work or when you are defeated in a struggle (but to work in a factory is already a defeat). The more the man serves and is bossed around, the more he bosses around. A man's home is his castle and his wife has to learn: to wait in silence when he is moody, to put him back together when he is broken down and swears at the world, to turn around in bed when he says, "I'm too tired tonight," or when he goes so fast at lovemaking that, as one woman put it, he might as well make it with a mayonnaise jar. Women have always found ways of fighting back, or getting back at them, but always in an isolated and privatized way. The problem, then, because how to bring this struggle out of the kitchen and the bedroom and into the streets.

Convinced as fuck. And yes, I totally just typed all of that up from the preview on Amazon. This is going to be a good book. :lol:

[Naroc]

I started reading 1984 (George Orwell), i've been interested in it for a long time now and finally got it from the library. I gotta say, i really like it so far

[BIXX]

I loved 1984.

There is another book that I think people here mentioned that they say is better than 1984 but I can't remember the title.

[Zoroaster]

"The Ego and It's Own" by Max Stirner.

I'm not going to say that I agree with it entirely, but Stirner makes a pretty damn good case for egoism. Not to mention that he does make some great points on some matters, especially Hegelianism. I recommend it.

[Naroc]

I often hear people compare it to "Fahrenheit 451", are you talking about that? Because that's the next one on my must-read-list :grin:

fack this sounds so good

Seems very interesting from the bits I've read so far. Lukacs comes off as quite the stick-in-the-mud with his conservative, traditionalist rejection of any avant-garde tendencies in art and literature, although his arguments are well expressed and a pleasure to read. I'm assuming that the others will demolish his stance, though. (Also, forgot to list Bloch as one of the contributors.)

I am reading The Dynamite Club for a modern France class. It is about propaganda by the deed anarchism in the 1890s. Super interesting after shifting through the liberal propaganda.

Buk's masterpiece, if you ask me.

Although Post Office, Factotum, Women, and most of his short story collections come very close.

His poetry is hit or miss, though mostly hit.

I wish I found books like that at the ones I go to. Most of the political related junk in mine seem to be from the mills that pump out wingnut books that end up in the second-hand shops because of unsold inventory, or at best commentary by more liberal minded authors every once in a while. Marx related things tend to be copies of the communist manifesto or bits by more obscure writers, which I assume were sold by students who took a college course related that covered different economic theories.

Then again what's circulating in the stores might reflect the city I'm in.

Admittedly, I do a lot of sifting through stuff like dozens of various editions of The Communist Manifesto, whole shelves of Chomsky titles, not to mention crap like multiple copies of Glenn Beck books. Regular digging does yield fruitful results though, and it's worth it.

I especially like going in without having anything particular in mind and coming out with some gems.

Lately I've found a lot of Frankfurt School-related stuff, usually in editions from the '70s. Ex-hippies must be cleaning out their closets around here.

john olday; trotz allendem, a polemic on guerrilla warfare

[Comrade Jacob]

Stalin's books 'Marxism and the problem of linguistics' and 'Leninism' came in the post today, still expecting Mao's 'On guerilla warfare'

suicide by durkheim

the hungarian revolution, a white book by lasky

[JesusRocks]

sometimes its just more exciting to talk about books you still have to read than about those you already did.



Not to get off topic, but not really. Talking about books you have yet to read just gives away spoilers.

Because it's difficult to get the books I like where I live, I've taken to printing and binding my books.

Stuff I intend to print out and bind:
A Guide to Marx's Capital - Brewer
An Introduction to the Three Volumes of Marx's Capital - Heinrich
Essays on Marx's Labour Theory of Value - Rubin

Books I've been reading in the college library:
Red Guards and Workers' Militias in the Russian Revolution
the Essential Rousseau

Contending Economic Theories by Richard D. Wolff and Stephen A. Resnick

[RedQuarks]

Learning is an great, fun thing isn't it? Seems to be one of the distinguishing factors between left and right! I myself am currently reading Luxemburg's "Reform or Revolution" and some of the Feynman lectures on physics. I recently finished Trotsky's profound "The revolution betrayed" and am trying to purchase as many historical texts as I can. Need to finish Nicomachean Ethics. It is specifically interesting not only to analyze the analysis of philosophers throughout history, but to examine their views relative to the periods in which they lived.

I plan to get:
- Sun Tzu "Art of war"
- Machiavelli "The Prince."
- Plato "The Republic"
- "The German Ideology"
- And others I haven't listed.


In addition, if any of you guys haven't read them, I would suggest:
- J.S. Mill's "Utilitarianism"
- Trotsky's "The Revolution Betrayed"

[LeninistIthink]

I an doing that really dumb thing of reading a lot of books at once but I'm hoping to get onto Serge's book case of comrade *damn whats his name* :laugh:
