No. 11: Jan. / Jun. 2024 - The march of capital: tensions in the New World Order

rfm11

We have reached issue no. 11 of the Revista Fim do Mundo at an alarming historical moment. We have never been closer to the disturbing events represented by the 1962 missile crisis. The main actors remain the same: on one side, the United States and the entire NATO; on the other, no longer the communist Soviet Union, but its successor, capitalist Russia, in a conflict unfolding in Ukrainian territory. This scenario becomes even more frightening when we realize that these events of pinpoint wars and the ongoing wars mainly orchestrated by the United States and Israel are part of the current structural crisis of capital. It is not enough for humanity to experience the most perverse effects of the structural crisis, such as the brutal global climate crisis stemming from the capitalist society's mode of production, distribution, and consumption, and the permanent destruction of wage labor positions, putting pressure on the category of the "industrial reserve army," as only the deepest strata of this army expand, such as pauperism, chronic unemployment, and the lumpenproletariat. The great imperial powers, which feed on the natural resources and labor force of the world and have shaped the world for their own enrichment at the expense of the so-called "global South," seem unwilling to relinquish their privileges and global power, preferring the destruction of humanity and the Earth itself.
