Arguing that racial slavery was a foundation of the modern world and of capitalism, this essay details the historical ways in which the organization of debt and credit networks were integral to the Atlantic slave trade. The author contends that the enslaved body of the African was itself commodified and, as such, opened new technologies of rule. Contemporary forms of commodification, indebtedness, and saturation, the essay concludes, draw from some of the ways in which the enslaved black body was ruled.

In the age of transnational capitalism, regional blocs, diasporic connections, postcolonial projects gone awry, and in the age of nationalism as the dark stepchild of dangerous fundamentalism, why would anyone want to think critically about the frame of the nation? , e nation-state is a relic of early political modernity. What can one fi nd in an inquiry into the frames of the nation other than premodern throwbacks, traditional cultures, and irrationalities? To be modern, these arguments run, is to fi x our gaze on political futures that look forward, not backward. However, there is a problem with these arguments. At the base of such positions is an understanding of modernity as a singular universal process that determines all political and social meanings. Modernity drags both the colony and postcolony kicking and screaming into the present age and into a singular uniform process. Consequently, all other histories are merely secondary or derivative, as modernity reorganizes geograp...

Forse un giorno quest'attrazione fatale del potere e la sottomissione ugualmente fatale al potere non caratterizzeranno più la vita politica del genere umano. Ma le condizioni per realizzare una società priva dei mali della dominazione vanno di certo ben al di là della semplice ricetta rivoluzionaria della teoria politica di Marx. Sylvia Wynter. Introduzione Quando nel 1983 Cedric Robinson pubblicò il suo seminale Black Marxism: The Making of the Black Radical Tradition, la "rivoluzione neo-liberale" 1 globale era in piena accelerazione. Era un momento di riflusso delle lotte di liberazione degli afroamericani, dopo l'intensa attività di contrasto da parte dello stato americano; implodeva la rivoluzione di Grenada nei Caraibi; si andava affermando l'idea che i movimenti di liberazione africani fossero arrivati a uno stallo e il momento di Bandung, che aveva suggerito diverse possibilità per i paesi ex-coloniali, si era esaurito. Da ogni punto di vista il terren...

The Haitian Revolution was the most radical revolution in the "Age of Revolutions". Overthrowing the system of planation slavery and colonial domination in the late 18th century, the revolution led by formerly enslaved Africans and Afro-Caribbeans operated at least two levels within the domain of political ideas and action. In the first elements of the revolutionary leadership were deeply influenced by the Jacobin current of the French Revolution. In the second instance subaltern figures and groups within the Revolution attempted to create both ideas and practices of radical equality. This essay will attempt to explore these two currents within the Revolution and argue that the practices of these two currents not only collided but opened up an alternative terrain of radical thinking and political thought.

En febrero de 1989 el socialdemocrata Partido Nacionalista Popular (PNP) conducido por Michael Manley, vicepresidente de la Internacional Socialista, obtuvo una resonante victoria electoral en Jamaica. Agitando la consigna «el pueblo esta primero», el PNP derroto al conservador Partido Laborista de Jamaica (PLJ). Durante los ocho anos, desde octubre de 1980 hasta febrero de 1989, el gobierno del PLJ puso en practica politicas economicas que estaban profundamente influidas y disenadas por los programas de ajuste estructural de los organismos multilaterales internacionales tales como el Fondo Monetario Internacional (FMI), el Banco Mundial (BM) y el Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID).

Los ultimos anos han sido testigos de una oleada de cambios en las politicas de muchas naciones del Tercer Mundo. El presente ensayo procura situar algunos de esos cambios en el marco de las transformaciones economicas globales y el impacto de los organismos financieros multilaterales. Las nociones de soberania politica que cobraron fuerza despues de la Segunda Guerra Mundial son cada dia mas obsoletas en el Caribe y el desarrollo sostenido de la region radica en la cooperacion regional.
