But, I am a Liberal!: Postmodernism and the Death of Solidarity
http://www.butiamaliberal.com/2011/06/postmodernism-and-death-of-solidarity.html
Saturday, June 11, 2011. Postmodernism and the Death of Solidarity. I recently read two books that address this debate, both of which arguing against the postmodern approach, that I have found worthwhile for anyone interested in this debate. In Defense if History: Marxism and the Postmodern Agenda. Is a collection of essays by Marxists challenging the postmodern fad within academic circles on the left. Michael Merube’s The Left at War. A contributer to In Defense of History. Ibid, p.9). Postmodern preocc...

But, I am a Liberal!: New Right Meets New Left
http://www.butiamaliberal.com/2014/08/new-right-meets-new-left.html
Thursday, August 07, 2014. New Right Meets New Left. But you can find some. Counter-Currents and Radix Journal. While I have no way of knowing just how extensive this outreach has extended into radical communities, from my experiences, it appears that the philosophical underpinnings of their arguments have found allies well beyond a skinhead mosh-pit. A recent piece published at Counter-Currents by Eugène Montsalvat titled “Turn Left, New Right! Between activists and workers. With just a few alterations,...

But, I am a Liberal!: Postmodernism and the Death of Solidarity, Part 2
http://www.butiamaliberal.com/2011/08/postmodernism-and-death-of-solidarity.html
Tuesday, August 23, 2011. Postmodernism and the Death of Solidarity, Part 2. Building on a previous post. Of mine on Post-modernism and its effect on international solidarity and historicism, I felt that it was obligatory to better define what I meant by “Post-modernism” and why it has been so caustic to the left and its various movements. I received this response from the New Centrist. Which I feel provides an important and necessary addition to this discussion. He writes:. 8220;OK, setting aside my per...

But, I am a Liberal!: Closing a Door, Opening Another
http://www.butiamaliberal.com/2015/05/closing-door-opening-another.html
Monday, May 04, 2015. Closing a Door, Opening Another. This blog has been in operation for nearly 10 years, which is much longer than I could have imagined it going when I first started. I feel now is a fine time to "close up shop" if you will, and I put together a book of essays from the last 10 years. It is available at Amazon now for anyone one interested in that kind of thing. If you do happen to buy a copy, and like what you see, a review at Amazon would be appreciated! When I left my university in ...

Ignoblus, for the moment. Mostly about antisemitism, other racisms, Buddhism, and perhaps sometimes football. When I was in high school, I found that Ignatius literally meant "not ignoble," and it struck me just how pompous such a double negative can be. I'd rather remind myself that I, unlike the popes, am fallible. Even when I'm wearing my pope-hat. Yes, I have a pope-hat. Wednesday, May 25, 2011.
