Great name.  Doug, are your radio products compatible with the
iTunes/MP3 type players?
Yes. Two options - streaming and download. And two speeds, 16kbps
(for dialup) and 64kbps (broadband).
I misnamed the 2/26 files - fixed it now.

What is your local rag called ? Even Marx's reference to newspapers is
double-edged, because elsewhere he remarks how the modern press is
technically capable of spreading more lies than in the whole of history
hitherto. Marx was aware of how the bourgeois social reformists moralised
about the "venality" of proletarian sexual relations, but he nevertheless
remarks sarcastically that procreation (the reproduction of labour-power
through the reproduction of the species), which, except in the case of slave
labour occurred external to the expanded reproduction of capital, could be
"safely left to the working classes themselves", but this was obviously an
error of judgement, since throughout the 19th century the bourgeoisie sought
to intervene actively in the moral life of the working class and regulate
sexual relations.

Just before, I watched two items on a bit of TV with Youssef. One item
suggested that the decriminalisation of prostitution in Holland actually
increased criminality, since pimps were now housing illegal prostitutes in
large private mansions which functioned as brothels, without this causing
public concern or profound moral inquiry. The other item showed a young
American boy peforming a karaoke song in a veteran's club. He was singing
how he thanked God for his freedom in America, and felt solidarity with
soldiers on active duty overseas who were defending his freedom. I remarked
to Youssef about the vagueness of the concept of solidarity, insofar as it
does not specify who the solidarity is between, as if the market dissipated
solidarity in favour of individualism, rather than creating a solidarity
which promotes market expansion.

Michael's citation does suggest an interesting exchange about how
consumerism became perverted.

This is a correct dialectical view, in my opinion, it is just that "need"
and "desire" are conflated and depicted in an idealist way. The hostility
which many Marxists feel about "the market" should not be a mindless
hostility, since often the very ability to feel hostility against the market
presupposes the ability to draw personal advantages from the market which
permit a withdrawal from market relations. Socialists accept that markets do
allocate resources efficiently in some contexts, but not in others, but this
requires us to theorise exchange relations (transactions) comprehensively,
and not make concessions to the universal abstraction of "the market".
Unfortunately, autonomism (which rejects the false, inhuman side of market
relations) does not do this, because sociality is reduced to
individual/subjective and intersubjective experience, and there exists no
sociality which transcends intersubjective experience - but this is an
unwarranted concession to postmodernism.

Marx remarks as a sarcastic joke in Capital Volume 1 how the
moral-historical component of the wage enables a "civilising influence" in
the sense that the worker is able to buy a newspaper and read it.

Fuck individuality, if by this you mean shopping at Bloomingdales.
There
was more individuality in a Blackfoot village where everybody made
their
own clothing, decorated their tipis and made music and dance without
regard for whether they were "professionals" or not.


don't think marx was thinking of either shopping or professionals (and
i most definitely wasn't), perhaps 'universality' would have been better
word choice than 'individuality' (also though km himself uses latter
term), when he writes in _capital, vol. 1, (fowkes ed., p. 772) that:
'universally developed individuals, whose social relations, as their
own communal relations, are hence also subordinated to their own
communal control, are no product of nature, but of history.  the degree
and universality of the development of wealth where this individuality
becomes possible supposed production on the basis of exchange value a a
prior condition, whose universality produces not only the alienation of
the individual from himself and from others, but also the universality
and the comprehensiveness of his relations and capacities...'

in other words, the conditions under which every person can explore
full range of potential human capacities for creativity and
enjoyment...in effect, capitalism 'teaches' folks to be dissatisfied
with subsistence level needs satisfaction *and* it creates "need" to
transcend that level...

Re: new radio product

[Jurriaan Bendien]

 individuality as comprehensive development of human
> >capacities presupposes society based on market relations...

This is only tendentially true. Harry Braverman describes in detail the
"deskilling" process, whereby the division of labour is modified in such as
way that jobs are easily filled or rotated because the skills necessary to
do them are very slight. Thus, capitalist production may frustrate and deny
human capacities just as much, and indeed this is a real human problem in
modern society, where Phd graduates end up driving taxicabs and job content
does not create satisfaction for people, not because of their individuality
but in spite of it. The subtitle of Braverman's book is also relevant in
this regard: the degradation of labour in the 20th century.

As an anecdote, I talked with a careers consultant once who said, "the
market is supposed to provide a richly developed individual, but where is it
then ?". And this individual existed only in the sphere of consumption, i.e.
individualisation conceptualised as private appropriation, and was
accompanied by a search for identity and identity politics. Significantly,
some personal questionnaires I had to complete in the past about my own
personality referred only to my habits in the sphere of consumption, hobbies
etc.

Last night, I watched with Youssef a snippet from a "leftist" TV programme
featuring a competition where a man and a woman had to hammer a nail in a
hunk of wood, a sort of sexy semiotic. But what "individuality" does this
express ? Not very much at all, and the entertainment value of it is minimal
as well, it is as though people are so bored that it is thought creative to
express boredom and banality. The very way in which individuality is
defined, is consumerist.

By comparison, in a less specialised, precapitalist division of labour, many
people needed far more real skills and capacities to survive than they do
now, and indeed I have read stories of Brazilian "primitives" who could
distinguish between literally hundreds and hundreds of different species of
plants and animals, which baffled "scientific" investigators who, for all
their capitalistically developed cognitive development, failed to either
find or to distinguish between the flora and fauna they were dealing with.
The main capacity which capitalism develops to the nth degree, is the
capacity to manipulate abstract symbols.

I think that this point is important because capitalist development also
involves the alienation of means of subsistence and the stripping of human
capacities, not just their development. These days you can observe these
young, wellfucked fat slugs but when you would ask them to do anything
practically or creatively, they would say "I don't know" or "I can't do it"
or they would lack the motivation to do it. Western capitalism is obsessed
with the meanings of love and sex and takes a prurient interest in the
intimate interactions between other human beings ("how others do it"), but
just that connotes a vacuous culture in which those meanings have been
stripped from their original context, and only exist as an abstract,
manipulable imagery which makes otherwise impoverished human relations look
like they are interesting. The corrolary of this is, that what makes
somebody interesting is "creative consumption", which involves at most a
productive activity carried on outside the sphere of social production, or a
collectivity outside "real work".

Doug's interview was good, even though reformist (hey, we're in the Dark Ages here folks). . .Doug should have a weekly spot on NOW and share snippets from his radio interviews, contextualized by Doug to bring out the critical points. . .then we'd get some consistently frank rattling by the left on Moyers excellent (left liberal??) show. . . .One wonders where one can say what one thinks about the evils of capitalism without being ignored or pilloried?

Thanks, Michael. There's that risk of attacks from the righteous
left, but there's also this, posted as a "review" to Amazon.com
shortly after the broadcast:
Reviewer: Mark from Santa Fe Before reading the book, I'll realize
that the author
is a socialist who hates freedom, and wants to see the
demise of America. After seeing this idiot's interview
on Moyer's show, I would only hope that he leave this
country immediately, and find a better place. But on
one condition...that he not accept one dollar from any
book sold in America, and donate it to charity.
