The Cold War And The New Imperialism: A Global History by Henry Heller.
“kill everything that moves” by Nick Turse. about war crimes in Vietnam It’s deeply depressing and even more infuriating.
“Pity the Nation - Lebanon at war”
By Robert Fisk, very good so far
Began Capital, Vol III and Giovanni Arrighi’s Adam Smith in Beijing this week. On Kindle I’m going through China Mieville’s October and Paul Cockshott’s Towards a New Socialism
Ah, I have always heard more hype about VOL I and VOL III, never much about VOL II.
That’s because Vol II deals with largely technical rather than political aspects of capitalism, that being circulation, turnover, and flows of capital between departments of the economy. Engels explicitly acknowledged this when corresponding with Russian(?) Marxists. It’s filled with a lot of tedious mathematical formulas and equations which will literally put you to sleep.
Folks stay tuned, tomorrow we got some cool shit to announce :D
