?i?ek Slavoj
Dal punto di vista comunista. Trentacinque interventi inattuali
br. L'ultimo libro di Slavoj ?i?ek raccoglie i suoi più recenti interventi su riviste e giornali, e costituisce una spietata, umorale e umoristica dissezione dei tempi attuali, del clima sociale che ci imprigiona. Pur nella grande varietà dei temi (dalla critica a un certo tipo di politicamente corretto al maoismo, dall'analisi di film come Roma e Joker a casi universitari di scandali a sfondo sessuale, da certi locali newyorkesi presidiati da «consensocorni» ai sexbot - i famigerati robot sessuali -, da Greta Thunberg a Donald Trump), la prospettiva adottata dal filosofo sloveno è quella del comunismo, un comunismo che, allargato a tutto il pianeta, sia in grado di affrontare i molteplici disastri causati dal capitalismo globale. Sì, perché più il capitalismo sembra trionfare, più i suoi antagonismi interni esplodono: basti pensare al controllo digitale sulle nostre vite (quello sì una moderna forma di totalitarismo), al riscaldamento globale, all'esplosione dell'emergenza rifugiati in tutto il mondo e alla pandremia di Covid-19. Di fronte alla crisi mondiale della sinistra, lo sguardo lucido e ampio di ?i?ek, tanto realistico quanto utopistico, è oggi più che mai necessario: bisogna auspicarsi che la sinistra radicale ricomincia sporcarsi le mani con il lavoro politico reale, e osi (finalmente, di nuovo) pronunciare il suo nome.

?i?ek Slavoj
Problemi in paradiso. Il comunismo dopo la fine della storia
br. La caduta del Muro di Berlino venne descritta come la fine della Storia, la porta aperta verso un paradiso lastricato dal capitalismo. Ma che fine ha fatto questo paradiso? Lo vedete da qualche parte? La crisi globale produce da noi gli eterni precari, la tragica disoccupazione giovanile la demolizione del welfare, la gigantesca evasione fiscale, la crescita di povertà e disuguaglianza; altrove, decine di guerre, centinaia di milioni di schiavi (letteralmente schiavi, più che in qualsiasi altro periodo dell'umanità) e miliardi di sfruttati. Slavoj Zizek, secondo molti il più influente filosofo al mondo, non ha dubbi: è arrivate il momento di svelare le menzogne del capitalismo e di lavorare per superarlo. Ma come? Esaminando le caratteristiche della globalità capitalista, le costrizioni ideologiche entro cui ci dibattiamo ogni giorno, le ben magre prospettive che la persistenza del sistema lascerebbe all'umanità; esplorando le potenzialità e le trappole delle nuove lotte d'emancipazioni sparse per il mondo; sostenendo con forza che una fuoriuscita dal capitalismo si potrà avere solo attingendo all'ispirazione, storica e ideale, delle lotte comuniste, socialiste, comunitarie. È quanto fa in questo libro, immergendo nel fuoco dell'argomentazione materie così diverse come il Cangnam Style e Marx, la Thatcher e i film di Hollywood. "Problemi in paradiso" è dunque un'acuta (e godibile) analisi del mondo in cui viviamo e una felice prefigurazione di quello che, speriamo, verrà.

?i?ek Slavoj; Manganelli M. (cur.)
Lenin oggi. Ricordare, ripetere, rielaborare
br. A un secolo dalla rivoluzione d'ottobre, Slavoj Zizek ci parla di Lenin e soprattutto lo fa parlare attraverso i suoi scritti. Colui che è stato definito il filosofo più pericoloso dei nostri giorni si confronta con il più celebre rivoluzionario dello scorso secolo, proponendoci di rileggerlo: 11 ricordo, la ripetizione e la rielaborazione del pensiero di Lenin forniscono ancora oggi importanti suggerimenti per la critica e la lotta al capitalismo. Per questo Zizek ha selezionato alcuni testi scritti dal leader bolscevico non alla presa del potere, avvenuta nel 1917, ma negli ultimi anni di vita: Lenin doveva far coesistere gli obiettivi rivoluzionari con il governo di un paese la cui popolazione era stremata dalla guerra e dalla fame, nonché distribuita su un territorio enorme, e confrontarsi con i limiti pratici delle teorie comuniste, traendo però dal rischio del fallimento sempre nuove spinte a immaginare percorsi di rivoluzione. Oggi, dunque - sostiene Zizek - l'importanza fondamentale di Lenin risiede proprio nella sua volontà di confrontarsi lucidamente con la realtà, anche quando si rivela scomoda per i nostri ideali, senza ricette prefissate, unendo spirito pragmatico e immaginazione. È proprio di fronte a uno stallo come quello in cui la sinistra internazionale e la politica globale si trovano oggi -questa è la grande lezione di Lenin - che i rivoluzionari cercano nuove vie.

Socialism Means the Abolition of Family Life
<p>London: Liberty and Property Defence League ca. 1901-05. First Edition. <br /><br />A wonderfully lurid warning against socialism by an organization devoted to laissez-faire economics.</p><p>The anonymous author suggests that socialism would lead to the breakup of families: "There would be no such place as home under socialism. Everyone would live in the State barracks. There would be no breakfasts dinners or teas with one's family at one's own table as in the first place meals in private would not be permitted as it would be against the socialist idea of equality.In other words everybody when hungry would be reduced to the necessity of repairing to the common swine-trough and eating the hogwash the State had placed therein. No roast beef turkey and plum pudding no smiling faces of children and friends around the table on Christmas Day. Indeed there would not be any Christmas Day under socialism."</p><p>This pamphlet carries no publication date but it appears to have been issued sometime between 1901 and 1905. It refers to "the late Mr. Oscar Wilde" who died in late 1900. In 1906 the Liberty and Property Defence League issued a book Socialism: Its Fallacies and Dangers which included the text of this pamphlet.</p><p>OCLC lists 8 institutional holdings under two different accession numbers: Syracuse Stanford Amherst Harvard Texas Wisconsin Historical Society Michigan and the London School of Economics. No other copies in commerce.</p><p>PHYSICAL DETAILS: Single sheet measuring 8 x 5 1/4 inches 205 x 132 mm when folded creating a 4-page unbound pamphlet.</p><p>CONDITION: Paper lightly toned old stab holes along the gutter tiny check mark to front wrapper a couple small closed tears small ink stamp at the end of the text general handling wear. A Very Good copy of an uncommon publication.</p> Liberty and Property Defence League paperback

[COMMUNISM] MARX, Karl [KERR, Charles Hope; UNTERMANN, Ernest]
Capital. Vol. I: Capitalistic Production; Vol. II: Capitalistic Circulation; Vol. III: Capitalist Production as a Whole
Chicago Ill: Charles H. Kerr & Co. London: Swan Sonnenschein & Co. 1906 1907 1909. First Editions First Printings. Three Volumes. Octavo. 22.5cm. Publisher's deep maroon ribbed cloth titled in gilt to spines and ruled in blind to boards. 869pp.; 618pp.; 1048pp. Generally strong and tight; mild scuffing and to spine ends and corners and a few minor exterior stains. Spine gilt is significantly oxidized to Vol II as is usually seen on the first printing; internally clean and fresh some very light spotting in places mainly confined to the page edges. A very good handsome set of first printings. <br /> <br /> A full set of first printings of this bibliographically complex edition issued over the course of three years. Marx published the first volume of his epic analysis of capitalism in German in 1867. The first translation into English was of Volume 1 only and was accomplished by Edward Aveling and Samuel Moore in 1887 based on the revised 4th German edition as edited by Engels. The 1906 first American printing under the Charles Kerr impint as here largely follows this translation with the subsequent translation work for Volumes II and III being performed by Ernest Untermann. Thus the earliest printings of the Kerr edition comprise the first complete edition of Capital in the English language. The printing was done in Chicago by James Higgins Kerr's printer of choice making this also the first complete edition of Capital to be printed entirely by a union-run print shop. Untermann did most of his translation work from remote Florida beginning the effort in 1905 discovering in the process a number of indices footnotes and at least ten pages of text that Aveling and Moore had not included in their London edition - making the Kerr edition the most complete up to its time. <br /> <br /> Kerr burned through the first two-thousand copy print run of Volume I almost immediately and rushed to get Volume II out by July 1907. It's very possible that financial constraints were already making themselves known by Volume II as Kerr was selling the books at a loss to encourage sales; the almost ubiquitous oxidation of the gilt on Vol II is likely a result of experimental economy that swiftly failed. Vol III returns to the higher standards of the first volume. The bindings on the first printings also feature a triple blind rule to the ribbed cloth boards with subsequent printings having double rules. Kerr's reprint system seems to have incorporated dates on the title pages for some length of time with the dates on the copyright pages remaining unchanged; after a certain point around the early 1920's reprints were issued without dates to the title pages and any volume without a date can safely be deemed a post-1920s reprint. Issues of Kerr's International Socialist Review from the period of printing recount in detail some of his problems and concerns publishing and selling the work with detailed data on dates numbers of copies and the firm's hopes for the completed book. <br /> <br /> Genuine first printing sets of this important edition are tremendously scarce in commerce. The lack of any real bibliographical authority for the American edition combined with Kerr's generally lax approach to differentiating printings has over the years led to frequent errors and misjudgments on the part of cataloguers including in full disclosure ourselves. After a good deal of research most in the advertising pages of the International Socialist Review we're confident we've finally got it right. Charles H. Kerr & Co.

Stanford: Stanford University Press 1962. First Edition. Octavo. 22.5cm. Publisher's pale slate grey cloth covered boards titled in black to spine. Dustjacket. viii; 279pp. Light scuffing and edgewear minor bumping to spine ends in a bright strong example of the dustjacket with some minor rubbing and chipping to extremities. some sunning and fraying to the spine panel and ends a very good handsome copy with some light wear. Internally clean. Bookplate of Phillip G. Fox to front pastedown clearly a home made design and almost certainly that of Professor Phillip G. Fox of the University of Wisconsin who was a professor of business administration with an almost obsessive interest in slot machines and the mathematics of gambling payouts. The bookplate has been composed as a piece of typewriter art centered on a complex mathematical equation; bookdealers aren't necessarily terribly mathematically adept so the solution will have to be found by the next owner of the book.<br /> <br /> Packer's preoccupation here is centred around which of the regularly used official methods for interrogating communists and building information on their activities is the most efficient and successful; court trials admisnitrative hearins or Congressional investigations. There is an interesting corollary in that he is compelled to analyze whether or not Communism is in fact subversive but the answer to that shouldn't probably shouldn't get in the way of a good system for governments to control their citizens.

How to Prepare a Report on the International Situation
San Francisco: Educational Committee San Francisco Communist Party N.d. ca 1937. First Edition. Corner-stapled mimeographed typescript 36cm x 22cm; 6pp printed recto-only. Toning corner creases and general wear; still a complete Good or better example. Dated from text. Rather remarkable Popular Front document prepared by Manuilsky as Deputy General Secretary of the Comintern and clearly oriented toward American Party members as the majority of the text deals with the resurgent economic crisis in the U.S. Though the title of the paper might suggest a style sheet or compositional outline the document in fact is a list of rather explicit instructions to American Party members on how to interpret contemporary world events in the light of current Soviet doctrine the general upshot being that the American economic crisis the rise of European fascism revolution in China and the increasing militancy of the Japanese are all symptoms of the collapse of capitalism and the ". growing resistance of the working class and the toiling masses against the onslaught of the fascist powers!" Evidence of Moscow's direct influence on the CPUSA during this period is hardly necessary to prove a point but this document provides a neat example of precisely how that influence was directed and executed.
