    The Work of Love
    Unpaid Housework, Poverty & Sexual Violence at the Dawn of the 21st Century
    Giovanna Franca Dalla Costa
    Foreward by Mariarosa Dalla Costa

    This text poses, at the center of its analysis, the relationship which exists between physical (and specifically sexual) violence against women, and the role of women in performing housework, to which they remain primarily assigned in the capitalist division of labor (and which seeks to define all of their existence).

    The Occupation Cookbook
    or the Model of the Occupation of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb
    Introduction by Marc Bousquet
    Translated from the Croatian by Drago Markisa

    The Occupation Cookbook is a “manual” that describes the organization of the student occupation of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences that took place in the spring of 2009 and lasted for 35 days. It was written for two reasons: to record what happened, and to present the particular organization of this action in such a way that it may be of use to other activists and members of various collectives if they decide to undertake a similar action.

    What does it mean to “occupy” a school? A school occupation is not, as the corporate media like to portray it, a hostile takeover. A school occupation is an action by those who are already its inhabitants – students, faculty, and staff – and those for whom the school exists....

    Political Essays
    Richard Kostelanetz

    “Only thinking that transcends the old pieties and categories — that is clearly beyond both ‘left’ and ‘right’ — can discover the new sources of malaise and formulate ideas that will nourish the roots of our future common experience,” wrote Richard Kostelanetz way back in 1968, in ‘Radical Thought for Our Times,’ one of the prescient contributions to Political Essays, a collection culled from four decades of his critical writing.

    Drawing insight from his life as an incorrigibly independent writer — together with the influences of John Cage, Dwight Macdonald, and R. Buckminster Fuller, et al., — Kostelanetz penetrates social and political issues with writing that is persuasive and at times funny. Courageous in his choice of subjects, here he examines: P.C. propaganda in ‘Me and AIDS Journalism,’ racism in ‘The Harlem I Knew,’ and the intellectual limits of the daily news in ‘The Perils of Newspaper Literacy.’ Anarchist and libertarian,...

    Gulliver
    A Novel
    Michael Ryan
    An allegorical history of the present. Gulliver embarks upon a strange space-age journey of uncanny cultural resemblances and disturbing personalencounters. A political satire that brings us face-to-face with the imperial cannibalism of white capitalist patriarchy and the food chain that constitutes itsmajor social institutions. Ryan parodies virtually every political utopian vision that has ever been advanced.
