Manifesto Manifests, Manifestly

Markets Not Capitalism

Charles has an official announcement of the release of the C4SS/ALL anthology Markets Not Capitalism, along with:

  • a table of contents
  • an excerpt from the book
  • two different links to buy it
  • a link to read it online
  • and a link to download it.

So why are you still over here?

Incidentally, the official release date is – the Vth of November. Dismember, dismember.


We Are Everywhere

  • Molinari/C4SS and ALL have a presence at next week’s Libertopia in San Diego, with presentations by Gary Chartier, Sheldon Richman, and your humble correspondent. Gary and I are also on an anarchism panel with David Friedman.
  • We (Molinari/C4SS/ALL folks) also have a free-market anti-capitalist manifesto forthcoming: Markets Not Capitalism: Individualist Anarchism Against Bosses, Inequality, Corporate Power, and Structural Poverty, edited by Gary Chartier and Charles Johnson, with contributions from … well, the usual suspects. You can order an advance copy here while checking out the endorsements from Ken MacLeod, Alexander Cockburn, Sean Gabb, and Bill Kaufmann.
  • Our own Ross Kenyon, the initial organiser of Occupy Auburn, gets press in our student newspaper.

Our quest for world domination continues!


A Trailer Unlike Any Other

The new Avengers trailer is here. It looks like Tony Stark has all the best lines. That’s fine with me.

I’m not yet a huge fan of how Edward Norton lost control and turned into Mark Ruffalo, but we’ll see.

So, we know from the trailer that Loki is involved; and we know from the post-credits sequence in Thor that the cosmic hypercube from Captain America is also involved. But the trailer also features what looks like a small spaceship, which I don’t figure to be Loki’s ride. Rumors tend Skrullward, but then again they would.


The Final Encyclopedia

Today I learned (from an Egyptian Students’ Association poster – apparently verified here) that the Library of Alexandria (the current one, obviously) houses the sole backup copy of the Internet Archive.

Why yes, said the first little pig, I’m going to rebuild my house, and I’m using all straw again.
