Volume 4, Issue 4 (2026)

This issue of the journal begins with three essays committed to analyzing critical nodes of both the reproduction of capitalism, and social reproduction in capitalism. Isabelle Garo explores how Marx’s work evinces two indissociable approaches to life, giving fresh insights into the contradictions of contemporary capitalism; Vered Ben David analyzes how resilience functions both as a “lived capacity for adaptation” within neoliberalism and as an imperative that shifts responsibility to individuals; and Tedd Siegel offers an extended review of Jason Read’s Spinozist-Marxist exploration of work, ideology and politics. In addition to two book reviews, we are also extremely excited to introduce a new section of the journal, “Experiencing Emancipations,” which offers insights emerging directly from experience of social struggles and ordinary acts of insurgency. After an introductory essay by the editor of the series, Daphne Nicolaidis Saunders, we share three personal accounts of activism. We hope this inspires readers to offer their own reflections for future issues. This issue concludes with a review symposium on Banu Bargu’s recent book, Disembodiment: Corporeal Politics of Radical Refusal, with critical essays from Amy Allen, Daniel Loick and James Martel, and a response from Bargu.
