The Rustbelt Radical
The Rustbelt Radical is a personal blog. It is revolutionary, socialist and internationalist. It comes straight from the ravaged middle of the post-industrial American Midwest and yearns for the refounding of the Marxist project. The landscapes of radical history are my main interest, but other topics might include politics, economy, work, culture, war, theory, travel, music and frequent tubthumping for the free association of producers. Let me know of needed or broken links. email: rustbeltradical@hotmail.com-

Tweets by RustbeltRadical- "The realm of freedom...can only consist in socialized man, the associated producers rationally regulating their interchange with Nature, bringing it under their common control, instead of being ruled by it as by the blind force of Nature, and achieving this with the least expenditure of energy and under conditions most favorable to, and worthy of, their human nature..." Karl Marx, Capital, Volume III, p. 820.

Comments Policy
Easy. I encourage readers to comment, but as per The Big Lebowski you don't come into The Dude's home and piss on his rug. After your first comment is approved you can comment as you will. Anonymous posts, spam or comments of someone whose sole reason for writing is to be a jerk don't get approved. And no personal abuse; we're all better than that. Other than that fire away.Archives

Life is continuing to conspire in keeping me away from the computer and the blog. This break is unintentionally becoming a few weeks long….
Hope to be back relatively soon.
