On Dominique Routhier’s With and Against: The Situationist International in the Age of Automation

Cover of the journal Atomes, October 1956 Guy Debord mentions automation only once in The Society of the Spectacle , in a short thesis tucked into the book’s second section, “The Commodity as Spectacle.” And yet it is hard not to think that the claim he makes in this compact passage is a crucial one, underpinning the construction of the book’s celebrated central concept. “With automation,” he writes, “the world of the commodity must come to terms with the following contradiction: the technical infrastructure which objectively suppresses labor must at the same time preserve labor as a commodity, and […]

U.S. Immigration Policy Lags behind a Globalizing World

U.S. Immigration Policy Lags behind a Globalizing World

Economic globalization has made little impact on U.S. immigration policy in recent decades. The United States has not expanded its low green card caps since 1990, and now it ranks in the bottom third of wealthy countries for its foreign‐​born share of the population.

Blaming immigrant labor force growth for sluggish wage growth is misplaced when—despite immigration—total labor force growth has continuously declined for decades.

Globalization and automation are not removing the need for immigrant workers to fill niches created by declining U.S. labor force growth. Instead, immigrants are playing pivotal roles in making trade and technological […]
