Excited to see this out in the world! This article is a result from my year of working alongside Ari, Theo, and Lydia. Here we attempted to grapple with the ways that capitalist frontiers have always been voluminous, and are increasingly moving more explicitly into "non-terrestrial realms".
As the search for #criticalminerals ramps up, mining is expanding further beyond the Earth's surface. Read about how mining builds on colonial governance strategies and reshapes Amazon, deep-sea, and outer space environments in our latest paper: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... #MineTheVolume

Mike Davis was born on this day in 1946.
“At the end of the day, the best measure of the humanity of any society is the life and happiness of its children. We live in a rich society with poor children, and that should be intolerable.”

one of the many important things I learned from Sylvia Wynter is that capitalism (specifically dispossession by accumulation) is a belief system (not just, say, a social-economic system). it is deified and worshipped. dig this: it’s a religion, faith, theology. we follow it.
