Radiation and Revolution uses crucial concepts in explaining how the knot of nuclear power, global capital, and the nation-state constricts our autonomy, existential necessities, and planetary relations. ... Kohso's analysis of the roots of the Fukushima crisis takes the reader beyond the archipelago and back again, illustrating how capitalism has been immortalized in the apparatus of nuclear war, nuclear power, and waste management. [An] expansive, theoretical, and deeply invested work., Comparing Fukushima to other nuclear incidents, such as Chernobyl and Three Mile Island, Kohso (who also goes by Koso), a writer and an activist, posits that these disasters are symptomatic of another problem--that of authoritarian, capitalist power over Earth's inhabitants, who live under persistent threat of catastrophe. The fleshing out of these ideas displays Kohso at his best, using careful research and interviews to create a compelling argument for confronting nuclear and other challenges with a global movement. . . . Recommended. Advanced undergraduates and graduate students., With regards to the creativity both of its content and its form, Radiation and Revolution constitutes a unique work, fulfilling Deleuze's call for philosophy to invent ready-made concepts which could seize the singularity of reality. Kohso's notions of 'life-in-struggle', 'transmutations' and his opposition between the 'World' and the 'Earth', will assuredly find echoes in other contexts, all marked by the radiation-like planetarization of politics., Writer, political activist, and translator Sabu Kohso's Radiation and Revolution provides a timely intervention into discussions of the catastrophic event that overwhelmed Japan's Fukushima Prefecture on March 11, 2011. Kohso has brilliantly captured both the sad singularity and complex generality of the event and the unyielding process of its global consequences. At the heart of Kohso's account lies a nuclear industry now worryingly indistinguishable from global capitalism's new lease on life., Turning the discussion of the Fukushima disaster and its ecological and social consequences into a reflection on the history of Japanese society and government from World War II to the present, Radiation and Revolution is a powerful, imaginative, and much-needed book., Writer, political activist, and translator Sabu Kohso provides a timely intervention into discussions of the catastrophic event that overwhelmed Japan's Fukushima Prefecture on March 11, 2011. Kohso has brilliantly captured both the sad singularity and complex generality of the event and the unyielding process of its global consequences.

Synopsis
In Radiation and Revolution political theorist and anticapitalist activist Sabu Kohso uses the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster to illuminate the relationship between nuclear power, capitalism, and the nation-state. Combining an activist's commitment to changing the world with a theorist's determination to grasp the world in its complexity, Kohso outlines how the disaster is not just a pivotal event in postwar Japan; it represents the epitome of the capitalist-state mode of development that continues to devastate the planet's environment. Throughout, he captures the lived experiences of the disaster's victims, shows how the Japanese government's insistence on nuclear power embodies the constitution of its regime under the influence of US global strategy, and considers the future of a radioactive planet driven by nuclearized capitalism. As Kohso demonstrates, nuclear power is not a mere source of energy--it has become the organizing principle of the global order and the most effective way to simultaneously accumulate profit and govern the populace. For those who aspire to a world free from domination by capitalist nation-states, Kohso argues, the abolition of nuclear energy and weaponry is imperative., In Radiation and Revolution political theorist and anticapitalist activist Sabu Kohso uses the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster to illuminate the relationship between nuclear power, capitalism, and the nation-state.

- i***y (712)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter Kauf2 volumes of Pogo comic strips, new and in perfect condition. Price was good, but shipping cost ($30 for two books) seems like a lot for how long it took to get delivered (23 days from Illinois to Spain). Also, seller communication was not great. First two times I wrote, their response did not address question. Third response explained at length about the private courier service they use and how it should take 1-10 business days to deliver. Maybe they should consider a different courier service.
- o***l (313)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letztes JahrBestätigter KaufThe item was described to a Tee. Very good communication. Shipping was just a little slow. The box the set of books comes in was damaged (bent corners) due to packaging. Not a deal breaker because the grand kids will not store in that box; might be if it were to be given as a present. The three books in the box arrived in prefect shape. I WOULD purchase from greatbookprices1 again in the future. ThanksConstruction Site Board Books Set, Hardcover by Rinker, Sherri Duskey; Lichte...

- r***_ (108)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter Kauf*Same as the other review* Purchased two box sets from this seller with one being advertised as "like new" but was delivered as if it was actually new. Shipping time was a little slow, takes about 10 days to ship out and it takes a while to get through the system. But the packing was great and I'm still overall happy with my purchase.
