Jacques Camatte — Bordiga and the Fate of the Species (2020) | Audiobook

English audiobook of Jacques Camatte’s “Bordiga and the Fate of the Species” (2020), written as the preface to the 2021 English edition of Amadeo Bordiga’s “The Economic and Social Structure of Russia Today.” Camatte revisits Bordiga’s analysis of the Soviet Union, capitalism and communism in light of the collapse of the USSR and Eastern Bloc, while reflecting on the continuing significance of Bordiga’s revolutionary theory.Beginning with the historical debate over whether the Soviet Union was socialist or capitalist, Camatte turns to Bordiga’s critique of capitalist development, the productive forces and humanity’s destructive separation from nature. He connects Bordiga’s communist perspective on the human species to his own later concept of “inversion,” examining technology, economic growth, communist behaviour, humanity’s relationship with nature and the possibility of overcoming capitalist society.Camatte, Jacques.
