    Social Reproduction, Destruction and Adaptation: Care Infrastructure and Networks in Ukraine during the War

    8 October 2024, by Oksana Dutchak

    Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine since February 2022, as well as both national and international policies to deal with the impact of the war, have surely influenced the spaces and networks of social reproduction, both in Ukraine and in refuge.

    11 September 2024, by Michael Löwy

    Surrealism is not, and has never been, a literary school or an "avant-garde" artistic movement (like Cubism or Fauvism), but a vision of the world, a way of life, and an eminently subversive attempt to re-enchant the world. It is also a utopian and revolutionary aspiration to "transform the world" (Marx) and "change life" (Rimbaud): two identical slogans, according to André Breton.
