Interesting presentation. Would be interesting to see how much of the decline in manufacturing jobs is due to capital flight and how much is due to "technological unemployment".
Here's some more on the Hienrich book should anyone be interested..http://mccaine.org/2013/05/26/book-review-michael-heinrich-an-introduction-to-the-three-volumes-of-marxs-capital/
PS. Monthly Review push an underconsumptionist theory of crisis, which besides from being empirically incorrect would imply that capitalism can be managed and that therefore socialism is not a necessity.
I haven't read this book, and judging by what I have read about it and Heinrich's other writings I don't think I'll bother. Here's some comments by Michael Roberts on Heinrich's latest article in Monthly Reviewhttp://thenextrecession.wordpress.com/2013/05/19/michael-heinrich-marxs-law-and-crisis-theory/Seems to me that the Ben Fine and Alfredo Saad-Filho book may be the best Capital introduction for some time..

What happened to plans to change to an alternative one?We are currently seeking professional advise and help as to the best way to resolve the problem and to assist with a move if that is deemed the best course of action. Now that 'other duties' are not taking up the time and energy of the department we are hoping to resolve this quite soon.
I think it will be also worth contacting some other non-leftist publications such as:Financial TimesEconomistGetting a good list now, will have to get writing that press release!
Thanks JonD I knew you'd be the one to ask, and links to thanks.Particularly interested in US and Australian and New Zealand publications, guess I should contact the companion parties.
I think the advert is really awful. Glad we didn’t pay half a million to get it made. What the fuck is it going on about, it’s like all the real content has been pulled out (if there was any to begin with) and it been replaced with vomit inducing gloss.Might read the bits about how they went about making the ad..How did you come across it?What do you think about this one?
I'm not sure if they have the right picture for Rich Wolff either. The economist Richard Wolff looks like this:
Slightly old news, but it seems the 'tipping point' for a new idea to take hold is only 10%. I guess that means we only have another 9% to go. Or is that a tad too optimistic?http://news.rpi.edu/update.do?artcenterkey=2902
This topic seems to be flavour of the day. A couple of programs I have half-heard on the world service:http://www.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/series/worldbizGoing to give a relisten.. (4th April and 30th March editions)
