Do Communists Like Human Rights
In today’s internationalism-sceptical age, the pro-internationalism side is defended from liberal perspectives. Worries concern free trade, free movement, international representative institutions, and senses of global democracy. These are important issues. On the other hand, they cloud the reality that other forms of internationalism have been available to us, including in times not distant from our own. I’m interested to think through ‘red’ int…
Introduction
Any number of issues raise the question of internationalism today – from the Corona virus to the nationalist waves in contemporary politics to the general nature of the post-Cold War environment.

The Accursed Share
This essay addresses Georges Bataille as a historical thinker by concentrating on The Accursed Share (three volumes, 1949-54), the text Bataille took as his master-work.

Grappling with this vision is key for understanding Bataille's oeu…
