The Enchantments of Mammon w. The Regrettable Century (Pt. 3)
from Red Library: A Political Education Podcast for Today's Left
A Lost Horizons Network Collaboration It's time once again for Real Nerd Hourz with our podrades from The Regrettable Century! And we decided to keep it chill this time and read a book together that is only 1000 pages. We join forces to kick off our new collaborative reading series on Eugene Macarraher's The Enchantments of Mammon: How Capitalism Became the Religion of Modernity. For part 3, Comrade Adam leads the discussion on advertising, the rise of the corporation, scientific management, imperialist eschatology, and we all get sick along the way at the sheer depravity of capitalism's development in the Gilded Age. Further Readings/References Eugene McCarraher The Enchantments of Mammon Review Max Weber The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism McCarraher on This is Hell! 8 Limbs of Yoga (Ashtanga) Stoicism Charles Taylor's Sources of the Self Liberation Theology Homestead Strike Pullman Strike Westinghouse's Dynamo Frederick W.
