The intervention aims to address the challenge of scale-up that in-person parenting programs often face while seeking to reduce both IPV and violence against children simultaneously.

  • Global Capitalism and Transnational Class Conflict

    J R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEPerspectives on Global…2022

    Integrated global capitalism has emerged over the past forty years as the dominant economic system. This world system was constructed by the transnational capitalist class, which established hegemonic political and cultural power in both the Global North and South. Nevertheless, competition and contradictions characterize global capitalism, within and between classes as well as nation states

  • Behind the US-China Cold War

    Open AccessJ R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLERace & Class2022

    As the global pandemic accelerates economic problems, divisions over global capitalism have sharpened. This includes those who want to delink the US/China relationship, those who wish to recalibrate but maintain the transnational system, and China’s own more assertive strategy as its economic power increases. These debates affect national and world politics as antagonism grows, even as capital continues to pour into China

  • China’s Threat to Global Capitalism

  • Global Capitalism and the Battle for Hegemony

    Open AccessJ R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEScience & Society2021Citada por: 5Referências: 6

    Facing a crisis of legitimacy, the capitalist class is constructing new hegemonic projects to stabilize their global system. This article will examine competing fractions of the transnational capitalist class (TCC), how these fractions are confronting the crisis of global capitalism, and how TCC theory analyzes the current state of conflict. TCC theorists see the development of two hegemonic projects, one based on militarized accumulation and aut…

  • China–US Tensions

    J R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEInternational Critical Thought2020Citada por: 1Referências: 3

    Although the trade war between China and the US has aspects of a national rivalry, at a deeper level it is a struggle over different forms of globalisation. The Chinese and US economies are deeply integrated, but the economic crisis of 2008 caused a delegitimisation of neoliberalism. The transnational capitalist class is seeking to build new hegemonic projects to stabilise global capitalism. On one side is militarised and repressive accumulation …

  • Can China’s Green Socialism transform global capitalism

    Open AccessJ R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLECivitas - Revista de Ciências…2019

    Over the past decade, China has made a spectacular leap to become the leading user and manufacturer of wind and solar power. However their commitment to fossil fuel still outweighs renewable energy. The article will trace the growth of clean energy and the coal and oil industry, in China’s internal market as well as their global investments. It will examine both private and state-owned enterprises, show the transnational links embedded in global …

  • China’s road from socialism to global capitalism

    J R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEThird World Quarterly2018Referências: 4

    China’s engagement with global capitalism is driven by the emergence of a statist and private transnational capitalist class. Nevertheless, aspects of China’s foreign policy from the Maoist period still echo today. Consequently, elements of third world solidarity and opposition to Western domination continue to exist as China’s past is redefined to further its transnational strategies in Latin America and the US. The main Chinese investments in S…

  • Trump and American Fascism

    J R Harris, Jerry Harris et al.ARTICLEInternational Critical Thought2017Citada por: 6Referências: 1

    The election of Donald Trump reflects the rise of a Right-wing nationalist movement. Central to Trump’s appeal has been his advocacy of anti-immigrant, racist, and misogynist ideas. At its core, his ruling power bloc consists of neo-liberal fundamentalists, the religious Right, and white nationalists. There are similarities between the new power bloc and fascism, and there are many who see Trump’s administration as such. Nevertheless, the new pre…

  • Transnational Capitalism and Class Formation

    Open AccessJ R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEScience & Society2014Citada por: 9Referências: 3

    Within studies of global capitalism class formation is analyzed from two different viewpoints: network theory and political economy. The principal factor determining the emergence of a transnational capitalist class (TCC) is the relations of production. The questions of how production and labor are organized, and how and by whom value is expropriated are primary and point to a hegemonic and cohesive TCC. Network theory, while helpful in creating …

  • Can Green Capitalism Build a Sustainable Society

    J R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEInternational Critical Thought2013Citada por: 1Referências: 1

    Marxists and radical environmentalists have argued that the never ending drive for expanded accumulation and production is the fundamental reason that capitalism can never solve the environmental crisis, and in effect can only make the crisis more severe. Promoters of green capitalism also focus on the growth cycle of capitalism, but argue that new environmental technologies can out compete and be more profitable than the destructive means of pro…

  • Translateral Politics, Class Conflict, and the State

    J R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEGlobalizations2013Citada por: 2Referências: 4

    Transnational capitalist class (TCC) theory has established a clear set of economic practices that have laid the basis for class formation on a global scale. Less clear is the relationship of the TCC to national states, the military (particularly the US superpower), and what constitutes transnational political practices. The author argues that the emerging world system is characterized by uneven development between economic and political hegemony…

  • Global monopolies and the transnational capitalist class

    J R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEInternational Critical Thought2012Citada por: 1Referências: 1

    Globalization has led to world spanning corporations competing to become the dominant monopoly in their areas of economic interests. This competitive struggle is carried out by the transnational capitalist class rather than states backing national champions, and reflects the changing character of capitalism. The drive to create a seamless world system of finance and production is inherent to the structural needs of capitalism to seek out markets,…

  • Going green to stay in the black

    Open AccessJ R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLERace & Class2010Citada por: 7

    Sustainable energy use is rapidly developing, often accompanied by state support and patriotic political rhetoric. But the solar and wind energy industries are highly transnationalised and already inserted into global patterns of accumulation. This article argues that, while possibly resolving some of the most pressing conflicts between capitalism and environmental sustainability, green capitalism nevertheless fails to address the contradiction b…

    Open AccessJ R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEScience & Society2010Citada por: 2Referências: 2

    A key point in the history of the Communist Party USA occurred in events surrounding the 16th National Convention, in 1957 and 1958. During this period a struggle over the political and organizational direction of the Party erupted, resulting in a reduced and weakened organization. Most historians give priority to the split between the right and left wings led by Johnny Gates and William Z. Foster, respectively. This overlooks the importance of t…

  • Statist Globalization in China, Russia and the Gulf States

    Open AccessJ R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEScience & Society2008Citada por: 19Referências: 1

    Over the last few years a number of developing countries have emerged as global economic powers. This resulted from a rise in oil and commodity prices, foreign direct investments and a global shift in production. Much of this growth has been guided by governments and under the control of state corporations leading to the phenomenon of statist globalization. The rebalancing of power is an unpleasant surprise for many, with Western politicians rais…

  • To be or not to Be

    Open AccessJ R Harris, Jerry HarrisARTICLEScience & Society2005Citada por: 12

    The defining dialectic in the world today is the contradiction between nation-centric forms of capitalist accumulation and the rapidly developing transnational system of production. These two forms of capitalism contain class interests connected to the benefits, oppression and institutional structures that arise out of the relations of production inherent in each model. These divisions between the descending and rising forms of accumulation lay t…
