Re: [Marxism] State of Emergency in Spain
== Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. == Brief summary. After a long period of problems over salaries and conditions, and following the recent decision to partially privatise Spanish airports, last night Spanish air traffic controllers walked out on unofficial strike, paralysing Spanish air space (today is the start of a long bank holiday weekend). Last night the government put the airports under military control, and this morning declared an ‘Estado de Alarma’, which, amongst other things, puts the air traffic controllers under military discipline, opening up the possibility, in the event of failure to turn up for work without good cause (for example, on medical grounds) of sanction under the military penal code, which could mean prison sentences of up to six years.

[Marxism] Reading Marx blog
== Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. == As longer-term readers of this list might recall, a few years ago I began a close reading of Marx's Capital. As I came to the end of volume 2, in the light of what I had read I began revising my reading notes for volume 1. Previously, I had made my notes available through, amongst other places, this list. This time, as I revised, I decided to publish my notes online - hence the blog. Up to now, the first three parts of chapter 1 (chapters 1 to 11) are up. In the next week or so, I intend to get the rest of volume 1 up. Then, and more slowly (as I revise what I think), I will start on volumes 2 and 3. As this is an ongoing project, and as something this complex needs necessarily to be collective, all constructive comments and criticisms are welcome. http://readingmarx.wordpress.com/ Send list submissions to: Marxism@lists.econ.utah.edu Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com

Re: [Marxism] Mercedes Sosa- We are still singing
Working backwards from the translation, the song you're thinking of is 'Como la Cigarra' (you can see it, and her, here: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1p6ee_mercedes-sosa-como-la-cigarra_music). The words, I don't have time to transcribe them, nor check them, but a bit of googling gives me this: (there's a bit of slippage between these and the version she sings in this video). Nice song, anyway. Tantas veces me mataron, tantas veces me morí, sin embargo estoy aquí resucitando. Gracias doy a la desgracia y a la mano con puñal, porque me mató tan mal, y seguí cantando. Cantando al sol, como la cigarra, después de un año bajo la tierra, igual que el sobreviviente que vuelve de la guerra. Tantas veces me borraron, tantas desaparecí, a mi propio entierro fui, sola y llorando. Hice un nudo del pañuelo, pero me olvidé después que no era la única vez y seguí cantando. Cantando al sol, como la cigarra, después de un año bajo la tierra, igual que el sobreviviente que vuelve de la guerra. Tantas veces te mataron, tantas resucitarás cuántas noches pasarás desesperando. Y a la hora del naufragio y a la de la oscuridad alguien te rescatará, para ir cantando. Cantando al sol, como la cigarra, después de un año bajo la tierra, igual que el sobreviviente que vuelve de la guerra. YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message.

Re: [Marxism] Mercedes Sosa- We are still singing
Looking back now at Louis' article, 'We're still singing' must refer to 'Todavía cantamos' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaWkEZHzukE), which I like rather more. My favourite Merecedes Sosa is her rendition of 'Solo le Pido a Dios', however (version here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIrot1Flczgfeature=PlayListp=9C3B4CF87358F415playnext=1playnext_from=PLindex=39). I think she sang this at a solidarity concert in 1983 (?) in Managua, which I heard on a tape (album 'April in Managua' (?)) I used to have. Electrifying.
