Regions: 
Basics: 

As Bordiga once famously noted, human affairs cannot be understood as a photograph, as something frozen in time, but have to be understood as a film, a series of almost imperceptible shifts in every frame but which add up in the end to a complete change in reality.(1) Recent events in the Middle East and their consequences (both intended and unintended) only underline the validity of that...

Basics: 
Publications:
