See you tonight at the booklaunch with @SteveMaher18 and Scott Aquanno, 7pm, #Toronto tickettailor.com/events/theleop…
Seems it would be hard for this to go far without broader support from capital (or a challenge from workers). Scott Aquanno and I wrote about how and why such efforts during Trump’s first term were contained by the authoritarian neoliberal state. springerprofessional.de/en/from-econom…

🚨Toronto friends!🚨 Just a reminder that we will be in town THIS SATURDAY to talk about our book, "The Fall and Rise of American Finance". Register at the link below – hope to see you there! socialistproject.ca/event/fall-ris…
Please, enough with the "techno-feudalism" twaddle!
New piece at @jacobin (inspired by my recent discussion with @briebriejoy) arguing that the left must take on Trumpism by mounting a serious challenge to the globalization that has devastated working class communities. This starts with capital controls. jacobin.com/2024/04/capita…
A left strategy for breaking with globalization can start with capital controls: confronting the domestic might of capital, building workers’ power, and moving toward broader public control over investment. jacobin.com/2024/04/capita…
Globalization is a project of class war whose destructive effects have driven many US workers into the Trumpian right. The Left needs a real response to the problems raised by global capital mobility — and that should start with capital controls. jacobin.com/2024/04/capita…
Capital controls, or restrictions on the ability for capital to move across borders, can be the beginning of a fight to gain wider, democratic control over investment. jacobin.com/2024/04/capita…

Brief excerpt from our new book @jacobin!
Analysts of financialization often present it as a sign of capitalist decline, yet the rise of finance has actually strengthened capitalist domination. The only way to challenge this power is by converting finance into a public utility. jacobin.com/2024/04/financ…
The growth and empowerment of finance are not signs that capitalism is collapsing. Financialization has in fact intensified competition and led to a greater concentration of capital. jacobin.com/2024/04/financ…

First police violence, then getting charged with battery. Solidarity @CarolineFohlin
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
Carolin Fohlin is one of the economists whose work I admire the most. I saw her speak in 2016 at @goetheuni when she was a guest professor for financial history. She's a leading scholar of the history of German finance and corporate governance. She knows what fascism looks like.
@MiddleEastEye Here’s @EmoryUniversity economics professor Caroline Fohlin knocked to the ground with her head on the concrete. Her glasses are thrown off. She shouts “I’m a professor” #Gaza #Protesters
The 2 police officers who assault this woman, this unarmed nonviolent economics professor, should not just be fired but go to prison. But of course the wider issue are our police forces themselves, which embrace consequence-free violence & authoritarianism at times like this.

My heroes have either remained silent or shilling for Biden. I am so thoroughly disgusted... feel beyond powerless and duped in the worst way.
Biden says that his signing into law $95 billion in war funding is “a good day for world peace.” In real life, he’s authorized more weapons for Israel to slaughter Palestinians and destroy Gaza. And in Ukraine, he’s sentenced many more people to die rather than end a war that he…

The Case for Capital Controls @SteveMaher18 jacobin.com/2024/04/capita…

@SteveMaher18 I was just reading some sections to write about corporate governance, but I think this line specifically gets out how people have to stop seeing money as always necessarily counter to industrial capital
@SteveMaher18 It’s really sad how the entire popular memory of volume two is just the last chapter, which is interesting, but probably has aged the least well. The post Keynesians have mastered macro, accounting. What’s much more interesting is this idea of the productive totality
