In this live we'll be joined by Joshua Moufawad-Paul (JMP) to discuss his recently published piece "The Immanent Garrison: Settlerism as Institutionalized Ideology" which is in Issue #2 of Material: A Marxist-Leninist-Maoist journal for contending schools of revolutionary thought.
As the title suggests, the piece engages with settler ideology and how it is institutionalized within the settler capitalist state. Ultimately it discusses how we might organize to dismantle the material basis for settler ideology. The conversation will obviously have a lot of resonance with the Palestinian struggle against genocide and for liberation, but it will primarily focus on these struggles in the context of settler colonial states (like those in North America for example) where discussions of settler colonialism and settler ideology are often dismissed as not relevant to the struggles of today. We will get into that and more.
Joshua Moufawad-Paul is a co-editor of Material. He is also a professor and an author. His books include The Communist Necessity, Continuity and Rupture: Philosophy in the Moaist Terrain, Austerity Apparatus, Methods Devour Themselves with Benjamin Sriduangkaew, Demarcation and Demystification, Critique of Maoist Reason, and Politics in Command: A Taxonomy of Economism. He is also a co-author of On Necrocapitalism: A Plague Journal.
