“Join This Great Movement for the Release of Humanity from Oppression and Deceit”
Social Credit was a constant presence in Canadian politics at the federal level from the mid-1930s until the late 1970s. Yet, the federal Social Credit Party has often been dismissed as the “lunatic fringe.” This article will contextualize the federal Social Credit Party as part of the political right in the early Cold War. By analyzing the statements of several Social Credit MPs, as well as text from the Canadian Social Crediter, this article se…

Transitioning toward "deep" knowledge co-production in coastal and marine systems
Knowledge co-production (KCP) is presented as an effective strategy to inform responses to complex coastal and marine social-ecological challenges. Co-production processes are further posited to improve research and decision outcomes in a wide range of problem contexts (e.g., biodiversity conservation, climate change adaptation), for example, by facilitating social learning among diverse actors. As such, KCP processes are increasingly centered in…

Three Decades of Climate Mitigation
Despite three decades of political efforts and a wealth of research on the causes and catastrophic impacts of climate change, global carbon dioxide emissions have continued to rise and are 60% higher today than they were in 1990. Exploring this rise through nine thematic lenses—covering issues of climate governance, the fossil fuel industry, geopolitics, economics, mitigation modeling, energy systems, inequity, lifestyles, and social imaginaries—…

Science standards do address scientific literacy
In their article, “Lessons from the pandemic about science education,” Andrew Zucker and Pendred Noyce stress the importance of students making sense of the world around them and use the COVID-19 pandemic as a call to change the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) to better address important elements of science literacy. In this response, Eric Brunsell, Kevin Anderson, Kelly Steiner, and Tom Anfinson note that they agree about the importance…
Delta Epiphany
What was the political impact of Mississippi poverty on Robert F. Kennedy? Ellen B. Meacham explores this question in a detailed and insightful new book that illuminates not just the moral effects of Rfk being an eyewitness to extreme depravation but also the social and cultural impact of his 1967 visit and how it came to shape his political and policy priorities as he moved toward a 1968 presidential bid. The strength of the book rests on the de…

Reliance on negative-emission concepts locks in humankind's carbon addiction
A nexus perspective on competing land demands
As nations develop policies for low-carbon transitions, conflicts with existing policies and planning tools are leading to competing demands for land and other resources. This raises fundamental questions over how multiple demands can best be managed. Taking the UK as an empirical example, this paper critiques current policies and practices to explore the interdependencies at the water-energy-food nexus. It considers how current land uses and rel…

Contested Rights
To seriously consider one's rights under the US Constitution, one must grapple with the realization that many rights are not absolute. Instead, they are contested. But how to introduce younger students to such a complex concept, given short attention spans? In this article, we discuss the opportunities, pitfalls, and planning logistics of the 2013 Constitution Day celebration at Emporia State University, a regional university in Kansas. Contested…

The Cockroaches of C anada”
This article examines the central influence of anti‐Catholicism upon E nglish‐ C anadian nationalism in the first third of the twentieth century. Anti‐Catholicism provided an existing rhetorical and ideological tradition and framework within which public figures, intellectuals, Protestant church leaders and other C anadians communicated their diverse visions of an ideal C anada. The study of anti‐Catholicism problematises the rigid separation tha…
Canadian Political History and Ideas
Over the last two decades, traditionally minded historians have argued that the rise of social and cultural history has fragmented Canadian history and caused the decline of Canadian political history. Despite these claims, current Canadian political history is proving to be a dynamic field that embraces the methodological and theoretical innovations of social and cultural history by incorporating gender, class, race and ethnicity as categories o…
Climate change regional review
With climate change, an increasingly important focus of scientific and policy discourse, the Russian government has aimed to position the country as one of the leaders of the global process for addressing climate change. This article reviews a breadth of literature to analyze the politico‐economic situation in Russia with regard to international climate change negotiations, related domestic policies, societal attitudes, and climatic change impact…

Beyond ‘dangerous’ climate change
The Copenhagen Accord reiterates the international community’s commitment to ‘hold the increase in global temperature below 2 degrees Celsius’. Yet its preferred focus on global emission peak dates and longer-term reduction targets, without recourse to cumulative emission budgets, belies seriously the scale and scope of mitigation necessary to meet such a commitment. Moreover, the pivotal importance of emissions from non-Annex 1 nations in shapin…
Four degrees and beyond
The 1992 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change commits signatories to preventing ‘dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system’, leaving unspecified the level of global warming that is dangerous. In the late 1990s, a limit of 2 ° C global warming above preindustrial temperature was proposed as a ‘guard rail’ below which most of the dangerous climate impacts could be avoided. The 2009 Copenhagen Accord recognized the scientific…
Marx at the Margins
Understanding engineering work and identity
To better equip engineers to enter a dynamic technological and economic environment, educators must improve their understanding of the wide-ranging work of engineers and the flexible skills it demands. To that end, we studied engineering practice in six firms of varying size and industry. We analyzed the similarities and differences of engineering practice across these sites, and gathered narrative examples of what it means to be an engineer at t…

Rubel's Marxology
Due to a lack of translated material the work of Maximilien Rubel is little known in the English speaking world. In the following article Kevin Anderson analyses Rubel's achievements as a 'Marx editor' and interpreter of Marx's 'economics' overall. Anderson then explores possibly Rubel's greatest flaw-his anti-Hegelianism

The "Unknown" Marx's Capital, Volume I
None of the existing English editions of Marx's Capital, Vol. I, including the new Ben Fowkes translation published by Penguin in 1976, fully incorporate the text as revised by the author for his 1872-75 French edition. These omitted or alternate texts cover the subjects of the role of private property in capitalism, alienation and unskilled factory work, capitalist crises, unemployment, and imperialism. Finally, the French edition of Capital is …
Response to Harold Benenson, “Victorian Sexual Ideology…”
s critique of Marx has succeeded in obscuring nearly totally the crucial relationship of women's liberation to Marx's overall dialectic of liberation. David Montgomery's response, which treats Engels, Kautsky and Bebel as having essentially the same position as Marx on women, but who "addressed themselves to the question more systematically," further distorts the question. As posed by Benenson and not contested by Montgomery or Ellen Ross, Marx's…

Lenin's Encounter with Hegel after Eighty Years
Lenin's "Abstract of Hegel's Science of Logic" and his other writings on Hegel during the 1914-15 period remain shrouded in obscurity, in part because this aspect of Lenin's thought is at variance with official Marxist-Leninist doctrine. Lenin's Hegel Notebooks show a break with his earlier more crudely materialist work, anticipating that of later Hegelian Marxists such as Lukács, Korsch, Lefebvre, and Dunayevskaya. Lenin appropriates for himself…

Reading Marx Writing
Maximilien Rubel, 1905-1996, Libertarian Marx Editor
One of the century's greatest Marx editors, Rubel placed Marx's critique of the modern state on an equal footing with Marx's critique of political economy. An erudite scholar who in his Marx Oeuvres I-IV (1963-1994) pointed repeatedly to differences between Marx and Engels, he became a thorn in the side of Stalinist Marx editors, especially in France. Volume IV of Rubel's Marx Oeuvres, published less than two years before his death, offers a good…

Lenin Reloaded
Lenin Reloaded is a rallying call by some of the world’s leading Marxist intellectuals for renewed attention to the significance of Vladimir Lenin. The volume’s editors explain that it was Lenin who made Karl Marx’s thought explicitly political, who extended it beyond the confines of Europe, who put it into practice. They contend that a focus on Lenin is urgently needed now, when global capitalism appears to be the only game in town, the liberal-…

Reframing the climate change challenge in light of post-2000 emission trends
The 2007 Bali conference heard repeated calls for reductions in global greenhouse gas emissions of 50 per cent by 2050 to avoid exceeding the 2°C threshold. While such endpoint targets dominate the policy agenda, they do not, in isolation, have a scientific basis and are likely to lead to dangerously misguided policies. To be scientifically credible, policy must be informed by an understanding of cumulative emissions and associated emission pathw…
