The vote for Brexit was a great victory for all the far-right (but firmly rooted in the ruling class establishment) movements of his sort throughout Europe. Already those forces around Europe are welcoming the outcome and seeing it as an example to be repeated in their own countries, as part of their anti-immigrant agendas which conflict with the free movement principle of the EU. I didn't want to and do not now want to get into a discussion all about the EU, which has many many facets. The sentiment that pushed the vote in the direction it went has to do with xenophobia, hostility to refugees, and hostility to legal migrants "taking our jobs." Trump is part of the same phenomenon on the other side of the Atlantic, and he knows exactly what he's talking about. - Jeff _ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com

I think it is pretty devastating. And it is based upon a thorough reading of nearly everything Moore has written. http://climateandcapitalism.com/2016/06/23/two-views-on-marxist-ecology-and-jason-w-moore/ Angus, by the way, has written a fine book, Facing the Anthropocene, which combines a thorough examination of the science of climate change and a Marxist analysis of both the science and the social science of the rapid destruction of nature we are now experiencing. Available from Monthly Review Press. The people who have endorsed Ian's book are a pretty remarkable group. _ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com

Contacts were made in Europe last year and a series of meetings then took place this spring. Both countries have an interest in building a gas pipeline and Israel already imports much of its oil from Iraqi Kurdistan via Turkey. Now, Jerusalem is dangling diplomatic and intelligence cooperation before Ankara, which could, in turn, clamp down on Hamas officials based in Turkey . But the Palestinian question is politically sensitive in Turkey, and obviously in Israel, and talks seem to be moving slowly. Relations with the European Union are currently dominated by the refugee issue, in which Turkey has found an unexpected source of leverage. In return for taking migrants and refugees from Europe, Ankara is seeking visa-free admittance for Turkish citizens to the union. But negotiations over the Turkish-European refugees-for-access deal have recently stumbled, with the divided Europeans uneasy over the possible social, political, and economic effects of a deal that could mean drastically increased Turkish immigration to the union, as well as over Turkey’s authoritarian drift. For its part, Ankara remains unwilling to make required liberalizing reforms, including to its widely criticized anti-terrorism law. Turkey’s Russian outreach is not going well. Erdogan recently sent a letter to Russian President Vladimir Putin on Russia’s national day, the first official contact of that kind since the Su-24 incident. Swallowing his pride, the Turkish president wrote that he hoped their relationship would again reach the “level it deserves.” If this was an outstretched hand, it was brusquely slapped down when the Kremlin responded that the letter was insufficient and demanded an official apology. “My perception of what happened between Moscow and Ankara is that these relations unfortunately became too personalized,” says Nikolay Kozhanov, a Russian Middle East specialist and nonresident scholar at the Carnegie Moscow Center. “Some of my colleagues even call this the war of the two machismos. This state of relations is unnatural for both countries, but I’m afraid that we may see this conflict continue for as long as both of these guys are in power together.” full: http://carnegieendowment.org/syriaincrisis/?fa=63847 _ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
