Moving a city, moving an economy w/ Cheyenna Weber A bit over a decade ago, it was just a handful of people speaking the phrase "solidarity economy" in New York City in an intentional way. Today, the concept has gained considerable traction, but obstacles loom as successes accumulate. Cheyenna Layne Weber has been at close to the heart of that trajectory. Here, she shares insights, lessons and observations from the journey so far. Cheyenna is involved a number of organizations, but we focus here mainly on her work with Solidarity NYC, the Cooperative Economics Alliance of New York City, and the Solidarity Economy Principles Project.

Communal socialism in Venezuela w/ Chris Gilbert 1:14:13

2 years前1:14:13

1:14:13

Venezuelan communes—where productive activities are controlled by a range of community assemblies—are fascinating examples of socialist forces experimenting with the creation of new social forms. Venezuela's communes are an attempt to address some of the shortcomings of cooperatives and state-owned socialist factories by addressing not just economic production but other social relationships like parenting and gender relations at the grassroots level. Chris Gilbert, author of the forthcoming book Commune or Nothing! Venezuela's Communal Movement and Its Socialist Project and co-author (with Cira Pascual Marquina) of Venezuela, the Present as Struggle, joins us from Caracas to explain the theoretical basis for communes. --- Mentioned in this episode: -- Five Factories https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8uUJPPST7s Communard Union https://www.counterpunch.org/2022/04/08/a-milestone-venezuelas-communard-union-stages-its-foundational-congress/ István Mészáros https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Istv%C3%A1n_M%C3%A9sz%C3%A1ros_(philosopher) Venezuela: The present as struggle (book) https://venezuelanalysis.com/analysis/15045 Commune or Nothing!

Cuba’s thousands of agricultural cooperatives are responsible for about 56% of Cuba’s growing land, and employ an estimated 300,000 cooperative worker members. Some observers say the cooperatives more efficient than the state-owned parts of Cuba's agricultural production. Federica Bono is an Assistant Professor of Human Geography at Christopher Newport University joins Dru Oja Jay to discuss her observations of Cuba's vast network of agricultural cooperatives. Dr. Bono has written about food access, the concept and practice of solidarity, and border relations. In 2015, she spent time living with agricultural cooperatives, and interviewed dozens of worker-members.

Mountain Equipment Catastrophe w/ Kevin Harding 1:05:30

2 years前1:05:30

Dru Oja Jay is joined by Kevin Harding, one of the organizers of a spirited, hail-mary attempt to save Mountain Equipment Co-op from being sold off to a US private equity firm. Before its assets were sold (and the member list apparently destroyed), the outdoor supplies cooperative had reached an estimated 6 million members and $700 million in annual revenues. Kevin is a public policy professional who works with cooperatives and community enterprises. In this episode, he shares about how tens of thousands of members mobilized to stop MEC's sale, and came very close to being successful. Dru and Kevin also discuss the situation that led to the co-operative's demise, what could have prevented it, and what became of the effort to save MEC. * * * Podcast links: https://anchor.fm/halfpastcapitalism Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/halfpastcapitalism Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/HalfPastCapitalism Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/druojajay Half Past Blog: http://halfpast.dru.ca/…

I've been working on a Ukraine episode for a while. After an interview with Yulia Yurchenko (whose book Elliot recommends at the end) was unusable due to wartime internet, I turned to Elliot Dolan-Evans in Melbourne. In addition to being the author of the timely article "Why Ukraine needs foreign debt cancellation now,"[1] Elliot has spent time in Ukraine's Donbas region during the civil war that has been ongoing since 2014, where he conducted dozens of interviews on the subject of women's work and how it was affected by IMF-driven privatization.[2] 1. https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/odr/why-ukraine-needs-foreign-debt-cancellation-now/ 2. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/09692290.2021.2012223 * * * Podcast links: https://anchor.fm/halfpastcapitalism Subscribe on Youtube; https://www.youtube.com/c/HalfPastCapitalism Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/halfpastcapitalism Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/druojajay Half Past Blog: http://halfpast.dru.ca/…
