Congratulations to Pankil Goswami whose paper, “The Political Economy of Precarious Work in India: A Case of Languishing Social Policy?” won the @CritSoc Burawoy-Wright Distinguished Article Award. Great work by the committee!
The journal that I help edit, @CritSoc, has made all of the articles Michael Burawoy wrote for us over the past 20 years open access. Thank you for all you did for Critical Sociology, Michael — may we carry your torch!

There's a lot of confusion about how to relate class politics to PMC culture. Unfortunately, the real disagreements get moralized and personalized. With relatively minimal snark, @DanielTutt and I try explore the key divisions within Marxist class analysis. Link⬇️

A plea to critical social scientists and theorists to not only criticize modes of exploitation, domination, and extraction but to also construct emancipatory alternatives. Based on a plenary talk I gave at the @CritSoc conference:

"Media Tropes and the Legacy of Settler Colonialism in Chile’s Constitutional Reform Process" by Marco Castillo & Carolina Bank Munoz at @CritSoc. Insightful new research on the causes of Chile's failed constitutional reform.

For @NewLeftReview I theorized Trumpism as a product of cultural liberalism.
To get there, I compared Tumpism and Japanese fascism and drew insights from Tosaka Jun's The Japanese Ideology (1935).
