The Poverty of Capitalism - Economic Meltdown and the Struggle for What Comes Next (Paperback): John Hilary The Poverty of Capitalism - Economic Meltdown and the Struggle for What Comes Next (Paperback)
John Hilary
R646 Discovery Miles 6 460 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Capitalist growth is widely heralded as the only answer to the crisis still sweeping the global economy. Yet the era of corporate globalisation has been defined by unprecedented levels of inequality and environmental degradation. A return to capitalist growth threatens to exacerbate these problems, not solve them. In The Poverty of Capitalism, John Hilary reveals the true face of transnational capital in its insatiable drive for expansion and accumulation. He exposes the myth of 'corporate social responsibility' (CSR), and highlights key areas of conflict over natural resources, labour rights and food sovereignty. Hilary also describes the growing popular resistance to corporate power, as well as the new social movements seeking to develop alternatives to capitalism itself. This book will be essential reading for all those concerned with global justice, human rights and equity in the world order.

Free Trade and Transnational Labour (Paperback): Andreas Bieler, Bruno Ciccaglione, John Hilary, Ingemar Lindberg Free Trade and Transnational Labour (Paperback)

'Free trade' strategies have increasingly become a problem for the international labour movement. While trade unions in the North especially in manufacturing have supported free trade agreements to secure export markets for their companies, trade unions in the Global South oppose these agreements, since they often imply deindustrialisation. Especially the expansion of the free trade agenda into services, public procurement, investment, intellectual property rights as well as investor to state dispute settlement provisions are considered to be problematic. The purpose of this volume is to understand better these dynamics underlying 'free trade' policy-making in order to explore possibilities for transnational labour solidarity. Bringing together labour academics with trade union researchers and social movement activists, this volume moves from conceptual reflections about the impact of 'free trade' via the analysis of struggles around free trade agreements to considerations of concrete alternatives. This book was published as a special issue of Globalizations.

Using the book of Genesis, a California Indian tribe, and an Australian Aboriginal tribe as his primary reference points;and relating myth insightfully to ritual on the one hand and symbolism on the other, Martin haws written as helpful an introduction to the nature, function, and importance of myth as I have come across. -- Huston Smith
