Some things by me which you can't read online: in the new 'Geo-Philosophy' issue of Collapse, on the political aesthetics of the concrete bunker, read through Ballard (obviously), the Atlantic Wall, Paul Virilio, Archigram and the South Bank Centre; in The New Humanist reviewing a decidedly on-form Zizek's First As Tragedy, Then As Farce; and in The Philosophers Magazine, on G.A Cohen's Why Not Socialism? which, while unsatisfying for certain rhetorical reasons, is very interesting on particular ways to achieve and administer a new socialism, about which he says more in 10 pages than Zizek has in his entire career. A better, more comprehensive approach to the question of Why Not Communism, meanwhile, can be found in this tremendous David Harvey piece for Monthly Review, explaining why another Communism is not just possible, but necessary.
