Also in this section; THE MATERIAL BASIS OF ACCUMULATION
(Great article, shame about the title!) - full article by Stan
Goff. "Our world crisis is analyzed in the three dimensions of resource depletion, economic injustice, and the dynamics of political power in a period of systemic breakdown. Mainstream progressives still discuss economic and social justice without discussing Peak Oil; they share with the free market economists a blissful ignorance of thermodynamic reality. But conversely, many Peak Oil discussions neglect the explosive political energies which might erupt from below during the disaster-process...."

reading for background - UK involvement in Iraq since the 1920's including

SOME OTHER RECENT ALTERATIONS
09.03.06 I started displaying adverts by Google on some
pages of this site. I have never taken paid ads before, and am wary of advertising products or websites whose ethos or
business I disapprove of. But I am tempted by the possibility of
getting some income from this website, which is now getting reasonable
traffic and very good search engine results! Any feedback welcome...
Please note that some of the ads will be for USA and other foreign
sites, often this is where there are not enough UK advertisers for the
topic of the webpage. I can block ads I do not want on the site, but
the process takes a little while to implement, so please forgive any appearance of ads for get-rich-quick schemes, etc.!
