Descriere

A 160-page journal published every two months from London, New Left Review analyses world politics, the global economy, state powers and protest movements; contemporary social theory, history and philosophy; cinema, literature, heterodox art and aesthetics. It runs a regular book review section and carries interviews, essays, topical comments and signed editorials on political issues of the day. ‘Brief History of New Left Review’ gives an account of NLR’s political and intellectual trajectory since its launch in 1960.

Contents of this issue:

ARTICLES

• Wolfgang Streeck – Plus Ça Change: The Merkel era in Germany—and Europe—brought to an end by the crushing defeat of her party. Prospects for country and continent under the enlarged ‘extreme centre’ of Scholz, Lindner and the Greens. Does the resurrection of the SPD conceal a shuffle to the right?

• Sujatha Gidla & Alan Horn – Caste, Race And Class: A critical engagement with Isabel Wilkerson’s revival of the ‘caste school of race relations’ that flourished in the US social sciences in the 1940s. How might other international outcast groups—Dalits, Jews, Roma, Burakumin—compare to African-Americans? What logics explain their unique condition?

• Mike Wayne – Roadmaps after Corbyn: Examination of the UK’s dominant political cultures, social liberalism and national conservatism, battling for hegemony within and between the major parties, and buffeted by economic storms. A sober reckoning with the lessons of Corbynism and hopes invested in an unreformable Labour Party.

• J. X. Zhang – The Roar of the Elephant: What might shed light on an enigmatic film in the absence of the artist? Sensitive reading, via literary underdrawings, of Chinese filmmaker and novelist Hu Bo’s masterwork, An Elephant Sitting Still. J. X. Zhang detects a ‘structure of feeling’ distinct from that of Sixth Generation cinema.

• Franco Moretti – A New Intuition: Plots that stylize class conduct, literary structures imitating historical ones, formal fractures indexing historical impasses, literature as the discoverer of new knowledge: Roberto Schwarz’s studies of Machado de Assis as models for a distinctive Marxist criticism.

• Adrian Grama – Antidotes To Alienation?: Interrogation of Hartmut Rosa’s phenomenology of social acceleration and call to repoliticize the question of the good life, along axes of vibrant ‘resonance’ with the world. The intellectual heir of Axel Honneth and Charles Taylor, between critique and adaptation.

REVIEWS

• TRANSFORMATRIX: Tom Hazeldine on Charles Moore, Herself Alone. Thatcher’s Conservatives wrestle with Europe, and with her, in the final volume of the authorized biography.

• PRIVATIZED GRAND NARRATIVES: Ryan Ruby on Carole Angier, Speak, Silence. An uneven life of the novelist W. G. Sebald. From post-war Bavaria to neoliberal Britain, a writer of which time?

• PATTERNING SLOWDOWN: Richard Seymour on Vaclav Smil, Growth. The environmental science of growth curves common to natural and social worlds and alternative endings—stagnation, collapse, decline.
