Hi Everyone,
The always-active Paul Swann wrote in some time ago to share what he's up to in Wales (sorry to be slow to share, Paul!)
Paul writes: "I was preparing for a presentation, having been invited
to speak about caring economics at a meeting on "co-production" next
month. But as I dug deeper I ended up disappearing down the rabbit hole!
Having shared the outline for part 1 of the presentation
with the organiser, we agreed that I should delay presenting until the
following meeting when I'll have more time to open up a conversation afterwards
(there was only 15 minutes available next month). Working title is
"Capitalism, Class and the Crisis of Civilisation".
When I've compiled a list of resources I'll forward it to
you...but in the meantime I do suggest you check out Susan Rosenthal's book
"Power & Powerlessness" which is available for free download
here:
There's also an audio recording of the book here:
Another fantastic free resource is the documentary movie
"The Crisis of Civilisation", based on a book of the same name by
Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed:
As you'll see, the first chapter of the book (on climate
change) can be downloaded, as can the documentary itself, either as a torrent
or from youtube: http://youtu.be/pMgOTQ7D_lk
More in due course..."
Thanks so much for the resources Paul - and do let us know how the conversation went when it finally occurred!
- Sara
