RFH Ep 133: Marx’s “Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte” ... and the Trump Regime 57:06

منذ 10 أيام57:06

57:06

Co-hosts Andrew Kliman and Gabriel Donnelly discuss Karl Marx’s 1852 book “The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte,” written soon after French president Louis Napoleon—or, as Marx refers to him, Louis Napoleon—staged an auto-coup in 1851, replacing a parliamentary republic with “rule by bayonet.” Shortly thereafter, he declared himself Emperor Napoleon III. Much of the discussion focuses on how Marx considered history, political struggle, and parties in relationship to the broader class struggle. The co hosts focus especially on his claim that French political parties and figures “represented” social classes. While they note striking similarities between the assaults on democracy in Louis Bonaparte’s France and in Donald Trump’s US (and elsewhere) today, they also discuss the pitfalls of trying to draw simple comparisons between substantially different political, economic, and cultural situations. Plus current-events segment: Trump administration chaos creating macroeconomic chaos. The co-hosts discuss how Trump’s on-again, off again tariffs and other chaos have led to widespread economic uncertainty, and the likely consequences of that uncertainty.…

RFH 132 American Trade Unionism in the Face of Trumpism 1:05:02

منذ 23 يومًا1:05:02

1:05:02

Co-hosts Andrew Kliman and Gabriel Donnelly discuss Gabriel’s upcoming article “American Unionism and Trump: Where are the unions in the struggle against Trumpism?” set to be published soon in Marxist-Humanist Initiative’s publication With Sober Senses. The co-hosts, and the article, consider the state of trade unionism after Trump’s second election. In particular, they discuss the regulatory framework of federal labor law in America. Trump has already begun meddling with existing labor-law precedent, and the response from trade union leaders has been lacking. An important aspect of their discussion is the quandary that American trade unions find themselves in. The example of the Amazon Labor Union is used to show how difficult a “new beginning” can be. The ALU had seemed like a new moment in the American labor struggle, but they stumbled and were eventually subsumed into the Teamsters. Plus current-events segment: the co-hosts discuss embattled New York City mayor Eric Adams and Trump’s attempts to get Adams’s corruption charges dropped. They consider how Trumpism encourages corruption and cronyism, to ensure loyalty to Trump, and they discuss how this may be combatted.…

RFH 131: Reading Capital Belatedly: Gabriel Cracks the Spine 1:02:03

منذ 5 weeks1:02:03

1:02:03

In honor of Gabriel Donnelly recently finishing his first-time reading of Marx’s “Capital,” Volume I, from cover to cover, Andrew Kliman interviews him about the experience. Gabriel is asked why it took him so long, and what the experience was like. Andrew gets in on the fun, telling the story of his own first-time reading. The co-hosts also discuss several aspects of “Capital,” including the concept of labor-power and the distinction between absolute and relative surplus-value, and why it is important—and possible—to read “Capital” without a reading guide, despite the supposed difficulty of the text. The co-hosts hope that this episode will inspire any listener who hasn’t yet cracked the spine to dive into this text.…

RFH Episode 130: Marx’s Conception of Socialist Society: Responses to Raekstad’s Reading 1:11:40

منذ 7 weeks1:11:40

1:11:40

Resuming a discussion of Paul Raekstad’s “Karl Marx’s Realist Critique of Capitalism,”the co-hosts respond to the book’s interpretation of Marx’s conception of socialist society. Paul contends that socialism, for Marx, centers on democratic planning, ending the division of labor, and distribution according to need. The co-hosts discuss important features of Marx’s concept of socialism that this formulation leaves out and its inattention to the economic differences between socialism’s lower and higher phases. They suggest that, if we want to realize socialism, here and now, and we want to critique Stalinism realistically and effectively, focus on the lower phase is needed. (The co-hosts have invited Paul Raekstad back to the podcast to discuss the issues.) Plus current-events segment: the co-hosts discuss the inauguration and the first week of Trump’s second terms.

RFH 129: Update on the Ukrainian Resistance to Putin’s Invasion (with Ralph Keller) 1:04:20

منذ 9 weeks1:04:20

1:04:20

Co-hosts Andrew Kliman and Gabriel Donnelly welcome past guest and Marxist-Humanist Ralph Keller on the show to discuss the status of the Ukrainian struggle against Putin’s invasion. They discuss the Ukrainian incursion into Kursk, the rising resistance in Russian, and the imperative need for foreign aid to Ukraine’s struggle. Keller’s report has yet to be released, but keep your eyes on Marxist-Humanist Initiative’s publication, With Sober Senses, where it will be published. They also discuss the political situation in Germany, where support for the Ukrainian war effort has become a political hot topic. The hosts and Keller consider how the far-right Alternative for Deutschland is eager to abandon the Ukrainians to Putin, and how Trump and Musk are cheering that party on. Plus current-events segment: Michael Podhorzer’s article “How Trump ‘Won.’” Trump’s victory was not from a huge upsurge in votes, but due to a collapse in Democratic turnout. The co-hosts also discuss the issue of political disengagement and highly alienated voters Radio Free Humanity is co-hosted by Gabriel Donnelly and Andrew Kliman, and sponsored by Marxist-Humanist Initiative (https://www.marxisthumanistinitiative.org/ ).…

RFH Ep 128 The New Stage of Struggle Against Trumpism (Discussion of MHI Editorial) 1:01:32

منذ 11 weeks1:01:32

1:01:32

Co-hosts Andrew Kliman and Gabriel Donnelly discuss Marxist-Humanist Initiative’s upcoming editorial “The New Stage of Struggle Against Trumpism.” The co-hosts, and the editorial, consider the situation we all face after Trump’s second election. In particular, they discuss the current lack of a concerted resistance, the elected Democrats who are toying with collaboration, and what makes 2024 different from 2016. Additionally, they consider the fragile state of the global situation and of American democracy. An important aspect of their discussion is the need for a theoretical framework for understanding Trumpism to be part of any resistance. They discuss how the rise of the split-ballot voters shows the need for a serious conception of Trumpism to undergird any serious mass resistance Plus current-events segment: the fall of Assad and the bombshell events in Syria. Almost everyone was taken aback by these developments, the co-hosts included, and they consider how this situation is still in flux.

RFH 127: The Pro-Truth Pledge and Building a Movement for Truth (with Tim Ward) 45:53

منذ 14 weeks45:53

45:53

Author and communications expert Tim Ward joins co-hosts Andrew Kliman and Gabriel Donnelly to discuss what it means to stand up for truth in politics. The discussants considered how the Harris campaign handled the issue of post-truth politics, how Trump will continue to erode truth, and cognitive biases that help fuel the power of post-truth lies. Much of the discussion considered how a positive movement for truth, in the face of post-truth’s encroachments, would actually look like and what such a movement would prioritize. To that end, the Pro-Truth Pledge was considered. Tim Ward is the coauthor with Gleb Tsipursky of Pro Truth: A Practical Plan for Putting Truth Back Into Politics, formerly sat on the executive board of the Pro-Truth Pledge, and blogs at Medium. The Pro-Truth Pledge can be read and signed at its website. Plus current-events segment: the co-hosts discuss the recent protests in Georgia after the cessation of talks for the country to join the European Union.

Episode 116: Is There Life After Tankieism?: BadMouse Recants, BadMouths Stalinism The co-hosts welcome Dave, aka BadMouse, who was a prominent Stalinist YouTuber but has since recanted. They discuss why some youth find Stalinism appealing, and why Dave himself turned to it. He then recounts how and why he became disillusioned. He and the co-hosts discuss “becom[ing] OK with not necessarily having all the answers,” and how to help people resist the pull of Stalinism, including the work that Dave is now doing on his BadMouse YouTube channel. Plus current-events segment: Internal divisions in GOP allow US to (finally) provide aid for Ukraine’s defense against invasion.
