Some researchers have suggested that the state is the single most effective agent capable of mobilizing the amount of resources and the policies required to overcome a crisis of such a broad scope and devastating impact. This paper analyzes the causes of the multifaceted and deepening socio-ecological crisis to show that the root cause behind this crisis is the capitalist mode of production itself. Subsequently, I interrogate those approaches proposing the state as a strategic mechanism to combat and overcome the crisis. It is outlined that the class-based (non-neutral) character of the state will tend to reproduce the prevailing capitalist relations of production, namely the basic conditions for the generation and exacerbation of this crisis. As is finally suggested, it is only with a revolutionary transformation of society that the working social majority will be able to radically undo the fundamental causes of the crisis and create the conditions for a peaceful and sustainable development on a planetary level. © 2023 The Center for Political Ecology.","PeriodicalId":39549,"journal":{"name":"Capitalism, Nature, Socialism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48041593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rather, we envision a disease ecology that seeks to understand relations, processes and contexts driving complex ecological phenomena like disease emergence. In doing so, we examine how science, when brought into a political pedagogy of context and relation, may become surprisingly helpful in moving beyond the false erudition that José Martí critiqued at the start of our colonial capitalist modernity.","PeriodicalId":39549,"journal":{"name":"Capitalism, Nature, Socialism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43283426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I am an under-employed contingent academic labourer at an online university (Athabasca U); but I love my job and my school does some cool things, like periodically offering free massive open online courses. I volunteer at my union Local, not to wait for “the Great Leap Forward,” but rather to prepare for and participate in the democratic practice of people-led power, within my small sphere of activity and impact. I am at times out of place – neither anti-state enough for anarchists, nor economically-determinist enough for orthodox Marxists. I grew up in one of the poor branches of a long-time white settler New England family. My parents’ divorce in the 1970s meant I experienced what millions of children of divorce endure, that is, a precipitous drop in household income and, for us, the stigma of poverty in an otherwise relatively well-off oceanside town. Impacted by the prejudices around me, I developed a keen radar for and stance against discrimination and a very early fellow-feeling for other poor people. In 1982, in a torturous “game” of Russian roulette played with a stolen gun, a likely-mentally ill juvenile shot dead a beloved relative of mine at age 15. I mourned and have since acted to join campaigns for the release of juvenile lifers. I campaign for the abolition of prisons, police, and the military industrial complex(es). I march for gun control and against war. I am a survivor and an activist against rape and violence against women. While steeped experientially in contexts that led me to these political and philosophical positions, my biography also shapes my interactions with history – both the history being made in movements of which I have been a part (like the anti-Apartheid movement of the 1980s and Extinction Rebellion of the 2020s), as well as the history rooting all current struggles in their specific socio-cultural and geo-political pasts. I am an unorthodox marxist; lower-case “m.” My marxism is rooted in exposure (as a teenager and ever since) to the persuasive and radical works of Trinidadian Marxist, CLR James; “persuasive and radical” to me because of his Pan-African, feminist, ‘from below’ perspective, as might be","PeriodicalId":39549,"journal":{"name":"Capitalism, Nature, Socialism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41654658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These commodities are termed “speculative commodities.” Here, I take the example of gemstones and conceptually trace and analyse the process of their commodification, with the help of Marxist theory and its various derivatives. The process of commodification and value addition that these resources go through are unique: partly, value is added and created through labour and their specialised artisanal crafts, but the major part of the profit is generated through discursive mechanisms of stories and narratives, the manipulation of supplies, and the manufacturing of demands through advertisements around each stone to make it valuable and pricey. The diamond and gemstone industry reaps extravagant profits from the otherwise useless pieces of stones – barring some industrial uses and the aesthetic value that they have. But their aesthetic dimension hides the greed, lust, violence, and aggression inherent in their commodification – many of these stones emerge from conflicts in the Global South – and that this source and history only add to their allure.","PeriodicalId":39549,"journal":{"name":"Capitalism, Nature, Socialism","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42436850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
