It focuses on how the materiality of oil—and the materiality of the massive offshore industrial complex that needed to be assembled to extract it—catalyzed a deep spatiotemporal reconfiguration of existing power relations. The Congolese anticolonial elites thought they could turn this reconfiguration to their advantage and make petroleum the means to economic prosperity for the masses. But they soon stumbled over enormous countervailing forces, as oil multinationals imposed the legal infrastructure that insulated future hydrocarbon flows and revenue streams from ambitions of self-governance after decolonization. Since then the day-to-day reproduction of Congo’s extractive business as usual has relinquished the emancipatory futures that anticolonial elites had in mind and precipitated the triumph of undemocratic politics.","PeriodicalId":43410,"journal":{"name":"Critical Historical Studies","volume":"51 1","pages":"255 - 281"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139345200","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}

This portrayal overlooks the brief but potent effervescence of the neo-Malthusian movement. Biologists Garrett Hardin, Paul Ehrlich, and Donella Meadows led a social movement that pursued environmentalist governance wherein scarce resources and population growth were managed by command-and-control instruments, Pigouvian taxation, and coercion. The neoclassical mainstream of economics conceded to the neo-Malthusian upstarts that if a “backstop” energy source was not discovered, then there were indeed “limits to growth,” but neoliberals eventually devised alternative environmental frameworks, such as Elinor Ostrom’s “commons” and John Dales’s “cap-and-trade.” The first significant clash between neoliberals and neo-Malthusians came in the form of a bet between Julian Simon and Paul Ehrlich over commodity prices during the 1980s. This article reconstructs the broader context of their confrontation, as well as the theoretical influences on Simon’s cornucopian framework of “resourceship.”","PeriodicalId":43410,"journal":{"name":"Critical Historical Studies","volume":"48 1","pages":"283 - 311"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139343981","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}

By contrast this article examines time in the history of women’s understanding of their domination and their political liberation at the key moment of economic restructuring in the 1970s. Like generations of workers before them, women’s mass entry into wage labor politicized their understanding of time. Yet unlike earlier struggles for shorter hours, women’s proletarianization occurred amid incipient economic stagnation and profound sectoral reconfiguration. Mass proletarianization amid immiseration thus both shaped the rich and vibrant thought of what “free time” could be in women’s lives, but it also set the limits on how much of it could be won.","PeriodicalId":43410,"journal":{"name":"Critical Historical Studies","volume":"263 1","pages":"171 - 209"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139344786","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}

The philosopher Amia Srinivasan has called this strategy worldmaking. This article elaborates worldmaking as a process of revolutionary change through a close reading of the slavery debates in the antebellum United States. Antislavery abolitionists were paradigmatic worldmakers. But their efforts to redescribe slavery prompted a counterrevolution. In the 1850s a new and final wave of southern proslavery writers, led by George Fitzhugh and Henry Hughes, attempted not to refute abolitionist redescriptions but to coopt them. This reactionary strategy, which tries to preserve the material reality of the ancien régime beneath the language of revolution, I call worldsaving. Turning our attention to the worldsavers in moments of revolutionary upheaval can be instructive, for their emergence both confirms the success of worldmaking and threatens its ultimate undoing.","PeriodicalId":43410,"journal":{"name":"Critical Historical Studies","volume":"29 1","pages":"313 - 338"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139345084","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}

Focusing on the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), this article examines several mechanisms of Old Left influence: personnel overlap, network ties, and organizational alliances. New findings on the Old Left backgrounds of Rev. Joseph Lowery, C. T. Vivian, and many of Martin Luther King Jr.’s teachers and friends are presented. The support that SCLC received from “red” labor unions is also highlighted. The picture that emerges is not the elaborate Communist conspiracy imagined by J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI but rather a transfer of skills, money, and ideas that strengthened SCLC and influenced its strategic agenda. However, the repression and stigmatization of the Old Left during the Cold War led many SCLC activists to hide or downplay their connections to the socialist movement, which has distorted both popular and scholarly understanding of the civil rights movement.","PeriodicalId":43410,"journal":{"name":"Critical Historical Studies","volume":"10 1","pages":"1 - 41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47562865","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}

It describes how the theory of contradiction developed in Hegel’s and Marx’s thought, then offers a typology of theories of contradiction: economic, transcendental, and immanent. Theories of economic contradiction are narrow and overly functionalist and too often make failed prophecies. Theories of transcendental contradiction are broader, but they too are sometimes functionalist or rely on unjustifiable normative foundations. Theories of immanent contradiction avoid functionalism but either rely on unjustifiable normative foundations or do not describe a contradiction. The article concludes by arguing for a theory of the contradiction of capitalism based on seeing capitalism as a space of reasons. Such a theory of contradiction would not be predictive, it would not be functionalist, and it would not rely on normative foundations.","PeriodicalId":43410,"journal":{"name":"Critical Historical Studies","volume":"10 1","pages":"141 - 167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46621405","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}

It conceptualizes secularization as a value inversion process, in which the substantive values that underpin social practices, laws, or institutions are displaced by those that serve instrumental ends. The article defines the historical mechanisms by which value inversion takes place and demonstrates the value of the theory in the case of the Middle East and North Africa. Value-inversion theory complements the two predominant contemporary approaches to understanding secularism, the rationalization method and the genealogical method, synthesizing elements of both approaches.","PeriodicalId":43410,"journal":{"name":"Critical Historical Studies","volume":"10 1","pages":"109 - 140"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44776661","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}
