Ana Balona de Oliveira Pedro Costa's films belie both the cinematic exploitation of suffering and the documentary urge to record truth and fix recognition. Ana Balona de Oliveira sifts through the bones and ruins of Costa's Fontaínha trilogy, set in a disappearing Lisbon slum

KPK ( kpk@protikapitalu.org ) Contrary to what immaterialists and Demoradicals might tell you, manufacturing in general and the car industry in particular is expanding rather than contracting in Europe, albeit in Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic rather than at Longbridge, Dagenham or Turin. (Beverley Silver's book Forces of labour, reviewed in the current Aufheben demonstrates that there's nothing epochal or even surprising about this kind of gradual geographical shift.)

Chris Carlsson The anti-G8 summit demonstrations in Rostock this June had something of the atmosphere of a music festival and a detention camp — and not all the constituents of the decentralised protests were happy campers. Chris Carlsson reports back

John Foster From Variant (http://www.variant.randomstate.org/28texts/poverty28.html), a concise account of the mediations through which political and financial macro-policy produces, for example, 'cold-death' in Scottish housing estates. Which amounts to a case study of non-replacement of resources -- or 'looting' -- in action. subject: Economics | Energy Resources | Europe | Finance & Trade | History | Markets | Money | Neoliberal | New Enclosures | Oil | State

Tony Wood From New Left Review, an overview of Putin's Russia which avoids the usual cliches about authoritarian nationalism versus oligarchic anarchy etc. While a state apparatus riddled (compared to, say, the late 'Soviet' Politburo) with serving security personnel is active at evey level of business, so representation of the business elite within the state has actually expanded significantly since the Yeltsin era. Unprecedented growth of state bureacracy is complimented by what some analysts call exceptional 'non-institutionalization' of public life, and certainly by the subject: Asia | Business | Chechnya | Economics | Energy Resources | Europe | Finance & Trade | Financial Crisis | Markets | Money | Nationalism | Oil | State | Strategy | War

James Woudhuysen You don't have to acknowledge 'vision' as a meaningful category, let alone one that can be 'insulted', to agree with James Woudhuysen that European-level imposition of drastically reduced energy consumption amounts to an aggressive austerity policy. Guess which class, as in every other 'green' expression of market forces, gets to bear most of the burden of 'a qualitative drop in everyday convenience, general living standards and mass comfort'.

Edward Another biopolitics update (and no, contra Foti/Dyer-Witherford there's nothing 'subversive' about it this time either). Like many other employers, presumably, Swedish telecoms group Ericsson has decided that being 35 years old or more makes its workers useless to the dynamic, fast-moving etc etc hi-tech sector. The difference is that Ericsson is actually trying to make them leave, using 'voluntary' redundancy packages.
