Open-source Marxism 2016: Fresh batch of “pirate scab” PDFs

.
Happy New Year from the Charnel-House.

2015 was a fairly shit year. Lemmy died, and yet another Star Wars movie came out, so right off the bat you know it’s awful. Add to that the terror attacks in Paris, Beirut, Colorado, California, throughout Nigeria, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, the list goes on and on. Plus rising xenophobia and outright racism in Europe and the United States, where cops seem to be shooting unarmed black kids on a weekly basis.

I guess Stephen Curry’s MVP season, culminating in a Finals victory over Lebron, mitigated things somewhat, made the year a little more worthwhile. Only somewhat, though.

We are insufficiently gripped by the terror of existence.

Regardless, start the year off right with some high-quality “pirate scab versions” of commie e-books and PDFs. First of all, more or less all of the books published in the Historical Materialism series. But also 365 different author folders, one for each day of 2016. It seems that butthurt from one of the prime movers at Verso and HM has already commenced, and so he’s issued a middle school “him or me” ultimatum.

Budgen butthurt

Of course, I don’t begrudge anyone who would defriend me or badmouth me for careerist reasons, because the sacred principles of #getpaid and #mansgottaeat override everything. You can’t be blamed the guy acts like a teenager, or that he can only tolerate suck-ups and sycophants. Just enjoy the free books. Anyway, most of these are in English, but the Hero of Labor who uploaded these tells me other languages could be provided as well. Also included are some worthwhile reactionaries like Michels, Pareto, and de Maistre, and some liberal thinkers from the era of bourgeois revolutions.

Note: If you’re not familiar with MEGA, the way downloads work can be kind of confusing. When you click on a given file, it goes to “transfers,” which then usually saves to your desktop. But there should be a gear in the lower left hand side which allows you to specify where everything is saved.

    • . . . and on the 272nd day, . . .

      Just in case anyone took that claim on trust.

      Also:
      #30, the Wilfred, is Bion (not Bon: which is . . .);
      #252, Meillassoux, also includes, as one would expect, Claude as well as Quentin;
      #343, Trotsky, has all his external exile writings, 1929-40 (which will please Pathfinder, who have consistently refused re-publishing requests by, amongst others, Marxists Internet Archive (marxists.org));
      # [can’t locate right now], has Lenin Reloaded, a nice touch, not least for the pic of Vlad looking like John Berger; this is just one of the links where there’s a surprise.

      Thanks so much for all this, Ross. Without it, this week I wouldn’t have been able to have used the interview of Iring Fetscher by Kevin Anderson. Easy availability has its utility; in terms of copyright possibly funding other books that would otherwise not be published, I often think people might benefit from pausing & properly understanding what’s already out there. More often than we think, the last thing people need is a new title.

      The Hero of Socialist Labour is indeed saluted! For more Stakhanovist competition! Onward march, copyleft, not copyright!

  2. Just love that 24 hours touch.

    They certainly reach you more than the Eton Wall Game at British Public schools.

    Are you still there Ross or are you Blogging from the inner circle of Hell?

  3. Can someone please upload a torrent? I downloaded the first 200 items on the list and found that all the zips somehow were corrupted. I’m sure it’s a bug with how Chrome downloads from Mega because batches of about 4 and 4 files were exactly the same size. Thanks!

    • One problem appears to be with special characters ?()” etc. If I doubleclick the individual work it will download clean with the special character stripped from the name. Putting them into the zip file seems to be the problem.
      I also ran into trouble having multiple downloads going at once so you might want to do things one at a time.
      Check to make sure if there are 25 works that all 25 are on your computer before moving on. Sometimes it just leaves out the bad ones instead of sending a corrupted file. I don’t understand why.
      Also there are some identically named works. Inside the zip it’s fine but when you go to move them your computer will naturally complain. See Hubert Damisch – Five Notes for a Phenomenology of the Photographic Image. Looks like one with a cover page and one without but I didn’t read enough to know if maybe one was a later cleaned up version.

  6. Thanks for sharing, but Emil Cioran was not Marxist. In fact, he tremendously sympathized the Romanian right wing legion, writing fascist antisemitic articles during the 30s. It was he who betrayed Benjamin Fondane, who got to Auschwitz etc. etc.
