Presentation at the Third Speaker Series on the Capitalist Mode of Power, Department of Politics, York University, Toronto. 24 October. (Lecture / Presentation; English).http://hdl.handle.net/10315/39930accumulation externalities power resistanceThe history of capitalism is a history of externalization. While benefits were tallied, costs were routinely excluded from accounts. In this presentation I examine the history of externalization as a power process. A history of brutality and destruction marketed as innovation and efficiency, externalization has been the shadowy counterpart to accumulation. From colonialism to climate change, I will describe how negative effects of economic activity are systematically imposed on vulnerable communities via the interconnected processes of production and accounting. Finally, I will consider how externalities have made their way back onto the books through uprisings, court rulings and environmental disasters. Refreshment will be served and everyone is welcome.
