In the contemporary world, the ideological production mechanism outlined by Marx in The German Ideology is being reproduced through the digital formations of neoliberal ideology. Neoliberal rationality constructs market logic not merely as a principle of economic regulation but as a “natural” (1/6)

Beccaria was way ahead of us, back in 1764, when he worried about the brutalizing effects of state violence: How it could transform our ways of thinking and feeling. He was only 25 years old at the time—a Gen Z by our standards today. I just posted an essay here: open.substack.com/pub/bernardh...

28. Tisini's book on the conceptions of matter in Islamic thought is far better executed than Bloch's "Aristotelian Left." Yet the former remains almost entirely forgotten, while the latter is well read and widely translated. More translations of Tisini's works from Arabic are much needed.
