Benkler Y: The Global Origins of
Capitalism

The Global Origins of Capitalism

Power, Productivity, and the Evolution of Modern Market Societies

Luxemburg International Studies in Political Economy

This book explores the legacy of economist Eugen Varga and the continued importance of his life and work. It examines the influence of Marx and Luxemburg on Varga’s ideas, particularly his analysis of the capitalist mode of production and his theoretical work on the development of an alternative mode of production. How Varga found limitations in not just his own strongly empirical epistemology, but also in the anti-dialectic Stalinist system are discussed, alongside why these critiques remain relevant in relation to neoliberal theories, inequality, and ecological concerns. Varga’s specific notion of the modern state, his political economy analysis, and his position within the Marxist economic tradition are also covered.
This book provides insight into the challenges faced when attempting to overcome the capitalist mode of production, as well as the historical limitations of scientific research and how ideas can be corrupted by personal, political, and societal forces. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in Marxist economics, the political economy, and the history of economic thought.

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, BEST SUMMER BOOK and MOST-ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2025 FROM THE FINANCIAL TIMES, NEW STATESMAN and NEXT BIG IDEA CLUB 'Downing Street's current hot read' Andrew Marr 'Spectacular ... Inspires hope' New York Times 'Forceful, quick-moving ... important' Financial Times 'Ambitious' New Yorker 'Necessary' New Statesman 'Chilling ... Inspirational ... A book that matters' Sunday Times 'One of the most important political books of the past decade' The New European The threat to liberal democracy isn't just autocrats - it's a lack of effective action by so-called progressives. We have the means to build an equitable world without hunger, fuelled by clean energy. Instead, we have a politics driven by scarcity, lives defined by unaffordability and public institutions that no longer deliver on big ideas. It's time for change. Bestselling authors Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson have spent decades analysing the political, economic and cultural forces that have led us here. In this once-in-a-generation intervention, they unpick the barriers to progress and show how we can, and must, shift the political agenda to one that not only protects and preserves, but also builds. From healthcare to housing, infrastructure to innovation, they lay out a path to a future defined not by fear, but by abundance.

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER: How We Build a Better Future

Abundance

Digital Culture & Society

Technologies and technological futures are always socially situated, relational, and enmeshed in (dominant) narratives of societal sense-making, which have the power to bring future ideas into material existence. The issue brings together articles exploring popular techno-futures from international and interdisciplinary perspectives, including cultural and media studies, science and technology studies, and related disciplines. The contributors decenter the discussion on socio-technical futures and the role of popular culture, aesthetics and media in their (re)production by focusing on societal tech-future discourses from global popular perspectives.

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, Get In is the definitive behind-the-scenes account of Labour's brutal reinvention and dramatic return to power. 'The book about Keir Starmer we have all been waiting for' TIM SHIPMAN 'Stuffed full of scoops . . . revealing who's really in charge' LAURA KUENSSBERG 'A remarkable piece of journalism' RORY STEWART From electoral wipeout in 2019 to landslide victory in 2024 and on into Labour's first hundred days in government, Get In is a blistering exposé of the most significant and ruthless political transformation in a generation. At its heart is Morgan McSweeney, a mastermind of political subterfuge and author of a strategy to eviscerate the party, bury the left and rebuild it as a vote-winning machine. In Starmer he saw the perfect vessel for his vision: a man with no political identity but burning with ambition and a single all-consuming principle: to win. Drawing on unrivalled access throughout the party and extensive leaks of internal party documents and WhatsApp messages, Get In shows how together they betrayed and marginalised Corbyn and his followers, then forged a path in which promises, and at times principles, were readily discarded in pursuit of power. Richly peopled with the major figures of Labour present and past, this is the coming-of-age story of Britain's government. In an era in which faith in politics has plummeted, this is how to game your way to the ultimate prize. But what on earth do you do when you get there? 'A rattling tale terrifically well told . . . extremely well-sourced . . . dramatic detail' Andrew Rawnsley, Observer 'Fast-paced . . . cutting one-liners . . . it reads as if the authors were alongside McSweeney and Starmer' Jason Cowley, Sunday Times 'Fascinating . . . devastating . . . full of lively stories' Andrew Marr, New Statesman 'Unsparing . . . brilliant . . . so many golden nuggets' Michael Gove, Spectator 'Revealing . . . pacy . . . dispassionate but informed . . . a cracking read' Financial Times 'A gripping story of raw politics and ruthless men' Helen Lewis 'Revealing . . . compelling' Anne McElvoy, Evening Standard 'Extraordinarily detailed and sometimes bloodstained' Tom Baldwin, Guardian 'As excruciating as it is insightful' Economist 'A superb work of contemporary history which defines the Starmer premiership' Peter Oborne 'If you have questions about Starmer's budding reign . . . expect many of them to be answered' Kara Kennedy, Telegraph **** 'Compelling' John Harris, Guardian 'Fascinating' Andrew Grice, Independent

The Inside Story of Labour Under Starmer

Get In

Who on earth is Elon Musk and what is he doing? Is he a hero, a villain, or does he swing constantly between those two poles? According to the constant media gush driven by his every act and pronouncement, Musk is best understood in personal terms. This book argues differently. Rather than seeing Musk as an individual, it sees him as an avatar of something called Muskism: a playbook for our new postliberal age. It's not that Musk himself holds a coherent set of beliefs; you could say his life is one long improvisation. And he's certainly never used the word Muskism - just as, a century ago, Henry Ford never used Fordism to define his own postliberal modernity. In exploring the forces that have shaped Musk, from South Africa to Silicon Valley, Space X to DOGE, Quinn Slobodian and Ben Tarnoff outline the motifs and practices that have come to dominate our own crisis-ridden world. Muskism, they show, speaks the language of crisis and emergency to invoke a less human future: where humans are purged from the productive process and, through social media and video games, merged with the machine. This is a worldview in which the technocrat is king; which piggybacks on the state to achieve supremacy; and in which only a select few deserve salvation. If you enter, this book warns you, you will grind and you will live in the shadow of one man - but the rewards could be priceless and the alternative might be extinction.

A Guide for the Perplexed

Muskism

Public administration and policy analysis education have long emphasized tidiness, stages, and rationality, but practitioners increasingly work in a world where objectivity is buffeted by, repressed by, and sometimes defeated by value conflict. Over five beautifully-written and accessible editions, Public Policy Praxis has demonstrated that politics and policy are "messy" and power explains much more about the policy process than does rationality. Using a case-based approach, authors Randy S. Clemons and Mark K. McBeth blend theory and practice to uniquely equip students to better grapple with ambiguity and complexity.Public Policy Praxis introduces students to the "how" of policy analysis alongside its limitations, practical political problems, and the ethical problems associated with different techniques and methodologies. By offering six different analytical models of policy analysis-rational, quantitative, political, pragmatic, postpositivist, and democratic-the reader explores multiple perspectives to tackle complex policy issues. Unlike many US-centric public policy books on the market, Public Policy Praxis is designed to work in international policy settings. New features include expanded coverage of narrative analysis, earlier introduction of mixed methods, updated cases on pressing issues like opioid abuse, school safety, and renewable energy, and enhanced discussions of political polarization and evidence-based policymaking. A fully-updated online Teaching Appendix is included for adopters, offering original cases, answers to problems, alternative approaches to case use, teaching exercises, student assignments, pedagogical ideas, and supplemental material directly tied to concepts covered in the text. With a conversational writing style, Public Policy Praxis, 5th Edition is an ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses in public policy analysis, community planning, leadership, social welfare policy, educational policy, family policy, and special seminars.

Gesellschaften stehen heute vor komplexen ökologischen, technologischen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Herausforderungen. Dies macht nicht nur einen institutionellen Wandel erforderlich, sondern verweist auch auf die Notwendigkeit eines grundlegenden Wandels im Handeln der Akteure. Die Beiträger*innen gehen zwei zentralen Fragen nach: Welche Bedeutung haben kulturhistorische Repräsentationen von Raum und der Umgang mit ihnen für Gesellschaften, Institutionen, Politik und andere Akteure? Und was behindert den Prozess des zielgerichteten Handelns angesichts der bestehenden Herausforderungen?
