Ideological Blindness: This interpretation posits that every state or political entity serves its ideological base and often develops a version of that ideology that glosses over its faults and flaws. This can lead to a simplistic understanding where complex realities are reduced to ideological narratives that justify actions. Example: A government might promote a narrative about national greatness while ignoring social injustices or economic disparities, leading citizens to adopt a simplistic view of their country’s standing in the world.

Colin and Clive Conversations in the Kitchen 5th December 2023 Towards a Theory of Social Reality SARM 1.3.7 ...And contributing to social change... ● SUBJECTIVITY: Experience . . . . ● ACTIVITIES: Crisis . . . . ● RELATIONSHIPS: Revolution refers to great changes in social relations, activities, subjectivities and means, the overturning of a social system by people of a social system by the people living in that social formation at the time. It may be restricted to complete overthrow of the established government or state by those who were previously subject to it, but Marxist analysis it usually refers to the stages of historical change from feudal to bourgeoisie and then to a socialist society. It is not fashionable to use the term today, but it would be interesting to know what the leaders of the US and UK think that they are doing in the Middle East. It does not refer to changes of personnel at the top of society which is a coup d'etre or of a control structure, which is a 'regime change'. Because of its connection with astronomy and mechanical engineering, it may be said to be a mechanical analogy [p 523] page 11 ● MEANS: Contradictions . . . page 12 Genocide https://lnkd.in/erP45yN8 Genocide https://lnkd.in/evwhscKc HUMAN LABOUR; Towards a Theory of Social Reality Marxist Sociology: a provenance for an everday-life model Author: Colin Burgess Co Author Clive Burgess 2014 and 2024 copyright ©️ Clive Burgess 2024 Clive Burgess ❤️ GREEN 💚 👌 Media Guide for discussing Palistine https://lnkd.in/exMVadp3 Clive Burgess This video provides an insight into the future of capitalism and zonism networked together with the other elements of social reality SARM

If you're conducting research on #governance in #postcolonial societies, my recent chapter titled, "From Colonialism to Heterarchy: New Power Dynamics in the Caribbean" may be of interest. In this work, I delve into the lasting impact of colonial power structures on the region's social, economic, and political landscape. The exploration of heterarchical governance helps to envision a future where collaboration and distributed power replace traditional hierarchies. https://lnkd.in/g-sNjmYG

🌏"The innovation of democracy well beyond institutions requires the presence of hands-on doing, carrying out joint actions from a collective action to improve the public environment… To reimagine and recreate democracy, we cannot underestimate the importance of these things. People will say many times that all of this is too small, it will not make a difference. But I see the power of these events in the transformation [and in] the trajectory of people.” ✨Last month, Keseb hosted a virtual panel discussion with Tessa Dooms, Julian Walker, Koketso Moeti, Áurea Carolina, and Lucas Louback on three approaches for unlocking people’s civic agency to engage in individual and collective action. The approaches included setting the political agenda through people’s power, rebuilding democracy through local institutions, and democratizing power to affect change. 📽️Watch the video in English here: https://lnkd.in/gSD3J_Yd 📽️Watch the video with Portuguese interpretation here: https://lnkd.in/g-r-HXYY #democracy #democracychampions #democracyfellows #innovation #21stcentury

Is the Separation of Church and State possible when Regulating Science and Technology? Exploring the tension between religious beliefs and scientific progress, this video examines whether the separation of church and state is achievable when regulating science and technology. Does the First Amendment's freedom of religion also support freedom from religion's influence on scientific policy? How do you honor the rights of religious individuals without preventing the imposition of religious beliefs on scientific advancements? Are religious principles too tightly woven into societal ethics to disentangle from regulation? https://lnkd.in/eS-7a2GB

“The socioeconomic outcomes of some competent persons in corrupt systems are no better than those of average persons in routine, functional systems.

In Place of '#Global #Democracy' by Michael Saward In this paper I discuss something that is not ‘global democracy’. That notion too easily names something whose shape (as if it could have a shape) is for now unknowable. I begin by sketching key reasons for caution about invocations of ‘global democracy’. Laslett was right to say we need to think more about political forms – where do transnational ones come from, how do they crystallise and become formalised? Are new procedures ‘designed’, or do they emerge from what a range of institutions and actors do and create? I move on to look at the unavoidable particularity of invocations of global democracy, in terms of varying narratives and emphases. I then sketch an alternative, reflexive and focused way to think about democratic practices in transnational spaces. ... https://lnkd.in/eMRH9KB5
