Harry Cleaver
Edited by Robert Ovetz and Kevin Van Meter

Capitalism / Labor / Philosophy
Class Compositions

End capitalism before it ends us.

Harry Cleaver is one of the most expansive Marxist theorists of the global class struggle over work of the last fifty years. Points of Departure is the definitive collection of Cleaver’s best unpublished, translated, or lesser known writings—both historical and current—on working class refusal, class composition, unwaged work, debt, and what he calls the “inversion of the class perspective.” This book puts an essential theoretical weapon into the hands of a new generation of militant workers and organizers re-energizing the class struggle. In these essays, Cleaver rereads Marx to address the crisis of capitalism, articulate strategy for the international anticapitalist movement, and to advance our collective search for points of departure from capitalism, so we can end it before it ends us.

Josh MacPhee
Preface by Grégory Pierrot

Art & Culture / Capitalism / Labor / Social Movements

In this short, graphic volume, Josh MacPhee explores the role of music and sound in the student and worker revolt on May 1968 in France through the lens of the vinyl records that emerged out of—and were produced to comment on—the struggle. From the chanson enrages that sung on the barricades, the birth of an independent and politicized music infrastructure in France, the explosive emergence of free jazz and rock scenes, and the enduring legacy and embedding of the sounds and aesthetics of '68 into experimental and pop music to this day, this book shows the impact of liberatory politics and action on our audio landscape.

George Caffentzis
Introduction by Silvia Federici
Co-edited by Joey Mauro

Labor / Capitalism / Philosophy
Class Compositions

A profound class struggle account of the historic and ongoing crises of capitalism from the preeminent anticapitalist philosopher George Caffentzis.

George Caffentzis has been the leading philosopher of the anticapitalist movements for over a half-century. With unrivaled clarity and political sharpness, his “reading of the struggles” offer anticapitalist movements worldwide a way of thinking and speaking about capitalism that points to the autonomy and resistance driving its crises, and the points of connection between different sectors of the planetary struggles that result in greater class power in their resistance to capital and in their creation of post-capitalist worlds in common.

More than an explanation of historical events or an interpretation of the present crises, wars, and devastations wrought by capitalist accumulation, these writings are weapons meant to advance the political thinking, strategies and actions of those who struggle to defend their livelihoods, dignity, and autonomy from capital’s exploitation and its destruction.

Organized around key themes of his life’s work, this collection brings the militant writings and scholarship of the planetary class struggle’s most profound thinker together for the first time.

Labor / Organizing

A Brief History of the Workers’ Inquiry introduces and reinvigorates the long tradition of research and inquiry coming from workers’ initiative, as part of their self-activity and organizing against their bosses, and ultimately as the sharpest tool in the arsenal of class struggle: collective intelligence wielded in solidarity against the exploitative and oppressive conditions that extract our time, power, and value from our very laboring together. In this short pamphlet, we enter the “hidden abode” of production, where everywhere our knowledge as workers’ haunts the boss—from contemporary offices and networked workplaces, to the factories where Karl Marx first employed the technique in 1880 in search of “an exact and postive knowledge” of the class struggles, to its uses by the Johnson-Forest Tendency in 1947 in the auto factories of New Jersey and Detroit, to postwar France, where it was again taken up by Socialism ou Barbarie, and then again in the militant struggles of Italy in the 60s and 70s. This long tradition has accompanied many moments of worker militancy, including recent ones, and it's a hypothesis worth testing that it will continue to be an essential tool of struggles to come.
