The crisis of the global economy
Submitted by unterschreber on Wednesday, 13 August, 2008 - 00:56
Vasily Koltashov (Institute of Globalization and Social Movements, Moscow) An endless series of Experts have recycled their opinions in Credit Crisis Anniversary-Festschriften over the last few weeks, but this one from the Moscow Institute of Globalization and Social Movements (www.igso.ru) actually has a historical perspective stretching beyond the calendar year. Good account of consumer credit gigantism as short-term supplement to 30 years of falling real wages in the 'old' industrial world, and of high commodity prices as effect rather than cause of inflation (i.e. more money 'created' than commodities produced). subject: Credit | Debt | Economics | Energy Resources | Finance & Trade | Financial Crisis | Globalisation | History | Immigration | Liquidity | Markets | Money | Neoliberal | Oil | Politics | State | War

C. L-Stavrides While bird flu panic made a return to the UK mainland last autumn, the promised pandemic failed to materialise. What does continue to evolve, however, are repressive forms of population management sustained by hypothetical threats of megadeath – writes C.

Josephine Berry Slater We are standing on the brink of an immense revelation. The revelation of people to states. In the UK – the surveillance workshop of the world – people are becoming increasingly visible through IT projects like the Electronic Patients Record and the National Identity Register, as well as a forthcoming points-based immigration regime premised on the ability to identify subjects and then track and cross-reference their data as never before. Joining-up data, and hence governance, is the name of the game. subject: Biopolitics | Border Activism | Computing | Immigration | Information | Mute Vol 2 #7

Where the struggle for migrants’ rights can be risky and divisive, informal organising by ‘illegals’ is a means to ensure survival. But both formal and informal organising can combine to protect an essential buffer zone of invisibility for undocumented workers — writes Unterschreber
