Marxism and Environmentalism (8): The United Nations and Praxiological Environmentalism
#8 Examines some of the environmental agrrements and agenda at the UN. Specifically, we see a strong authoritarian bent to the declarations put forward and signed up to by nation states. What emerges between the lines are clear indicators that those formulating the content of these documents and declarations have been influenced by Marxist philosophy. The technical terminology of the Marxist tradition is used in the correct application with many of the ideas flowing from Marxist philosophers. The lack of direct citation of course makes this challenging to follow, but by this point our understanding seeks common ideas and systems-level thinking.

Environmentalism and Marxism (7): The End of Man
#7 explores the ideas of Donna Haraway and Rosi Braidotti. Specifically, their development of an idea implicit within Marxist philosophy and emphasised by Gramsci as being a specific avenue of attack. Haraway, much like Bookchin, advocates the union with technology and later with animals to generate respectively, cyborgs and kin. Braidotti on the other hand subscribes to the school which develops the post-human, going beyond the present conceptions of humanity, the state, state sovereignty, the form of democracy and so on. The kin/post-human lays the foundations for a new social contract and movement toward an international covenant, the global citizen.

Environmentalism and Marxism (5): Ecology Strikes Back
#5 makes the shift from high dialectical theory and instead explores how these ideas combine in the roots of the dialectical environmentalist movement. The key innovation that has been emerging through Canguilhem and Sartre is the relation of organism to milieu, and in the human context, our lived expereince of the milieu, its being changed by us and of us being influenced by our reformed milieu. The ecological theses are developed in the 1960's and 1970's, we look at their more direct underpinnings by figures like Murray Bookchin and Barry Commoner; both were speakers at Earth Day 1970, a key date in the birth of the leftist form of the environmentalist movement. At the end, an environmentalist path to totalitarianism has been generated, and is to be taught to children who will lead the charge to reform morality and culture.

Environmentalism and Marxism (4): Sartre, scarcity and anti-praxis
#4 further explores the ideas of Jean-Paul Sartre. The dialectic comes to encompass all of being and so working against the revolutionaries must also be seen as dialectical. This gives rise to the issues of anti-praxis and scarcity, which this new dialectical materialism rooted in lived expereince must overcome with the correct praxis.

Environmentalism and Marxism (2): Georges Canguilhem
#2 examines the ideas of Georges Canguilhem and his development of a new route to dialectical materialism through engaging with the ideas of René Descartes. He develops the idea of a tension between an organism and its environment (milieu); an idea which has immense influence on figures such as Jean-Paul Sartre, Michel Foucault and Jackie Derrida.

#1 begins by exploring the methodology and some of the initial philosophical developments made by Marx, as well as some of the environmental developments made by Engels. They serve as the foundation for Leftist environmentalism, typically called dialectical ecology.

The Development of Queer Theory (1/4)
A short course on the development of queer theory and what has become known as gender ideology.
This lecture, the first of four, looks at key concepts and ideas in Marxism which are necessary for understanding how queer theory and gender ideology were developed. We examine Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels's early ideas, why they sought to break apart the family, and how sexuality became part of revolutionary conduct.

The Development of Queer Theory (4/4)
A short course on the development of queer theory and what has become known as gender ideology.
L4 specifically address neo-Marxism/post-structuralism in the legislative and judicial systems. Based on statements made by ScotGov's Non-Binary Working Group (who provide advice to ScotGov) there is a particular focus on the ideas of Jean-Paul Sartre (they reference the concept of 'lived experience') and Gilbert Herdt (whom they also reference). I will then show how the ideas cascade into legislation (GRR & GRR feedback) and also look at the Equal Treatment Bench Book in England. Lastly I explore some broader and more detailed aspects of the discourses on sexuality, and their connection to the state establishment of totalitarianism.

Queer theory, gender, trans and the Welsh Government
A reading of the Welsh Gov's 2017 document available here: https://gov.wales/future-sex-and-relationships-education-curriculum
The document is underpinned by dialectical intellectual thought and clearly draws from Foucault, Rubin and Butler's theories. The risk is of establish a cultural norm of child sexualisation and grooming, through the state, using taxpayers money.

The Development of Queer Theory (3/4)
A short course on the development of queer theory and what has become known as gender ideology.
The third lecture examines the unfolding of Foucault's thought into a number of different applications. We look at the early developments of queer theory through figures such as Gayle Rubin and Judith Butler; the definitions of queer theory from queer theorists'; queer criminology and the notion of minor-attracted persons; queer pedagogy and Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH)
