Dear Friend/Colleague/Comrade,
You probably see Capital & Class on a regular basis, but just in case you
have lapsed or otherwise fallen by the wayside I'm writing to let you know
about the latest issue of Capital & Class, which is a 'Red-Green' special
issue, and those planned for 2001. (You can browse the contents pages of
the last six issues on our website, at www.cseweb.org.uk).
The 'Red-Green' issue is 250-pages on Environmental Politics: Analyses and
Alternatives. Eight articles make essential contributions to the red-green
debate from four perspectives: Philosophy, Political Economy, Culture and
Strategy. Themes include Marx and the Animal/Human Distinction; Capitalism
against Nature; Micro-Experiments in Alternatives, and Critical Reflections
on 'Green' Product Strategies. The issue also carries an extended 20-title
book reviews section. You can buy it as a part of a subscription (3 issues
per year) or as a single issue for £7 plus postage. Contact the CSE office
for details of payment etc.
Next year will mark 25 years of publishing the journal. To commemorate the
anniversary we have a series of three special issues planned. The first of
the series, no. 73, due February 2001, will be on value theory. Authors
and articles will include
ANDREW KLIMAN, The Exploitation Theory of Profit
GEORGE LIODAKIS, The People-Nature Relation and the Labour Theory of Value
DAVID LAIBMAN, Rising 'material' vs. Falling 'value' Rates of Profit
STEVE FLEETWOOD, Marxist Theory of Value and Critical Realism
CHRIS ARTHUR, Value, Labour and Negativity
The second, No. 74, June 2001, will be an international issue and feature
several leading commentators on the global economy, such as JOHN WEEKES on
The Expansion of Capital and Uneven Development on a World Scale, and
GERARD DUMENIL 'On Brenner'. From Germany, LUTHJE & SCHERRER examine Race,
Multiculturalism and Labour Organising in the USA, NGAI-LING SUM writes on
An Integral Approach to the Asian Crisis; HAROON AKRAM-LODHI assesses
Peasants and 'real' Markets in Northern Pakistan and ANDY PIKE analyses
Corporate Retreat and the Abandonment of Host Economies in the Era of
'Globalisation', looking particularly at the case of Rolls Royce in
North-East England.
No. 75, Autumn 2001 will be a collection of essays by key writers whose
work has been printed in the journal since the beginning, and CSE is
planning a public event to coincide with it.
The book reviews section of special issues reflects the theme, and for no.
75 we are planning an extended book reviews supplement.
