Ezequiel Adamovsky Libros

The book delves into the interplay between perceptions of Russia and Eastern Europe and the formation of a Western identity, particularly through a postcolonial lens. It investigates how characteristics, both real and perceived, of these regions influenced the construction of a liberal Western narrative, which gained prominence over time. The primary focus is on French culture and its role in shaping the discourse surrounding Russia since the inception of the debate on the subject.

In Anti-Capitalism, activist and scholar Ezequiel Adamovsky tells the story of the long-standing effort to build a better world, one without an abusive system at its heart. Backed up by arresting, lucid images from the radical artist group United Illustrators, Adamovsky details the struggle against rising corporate power, as that struggle unfolds in the halls of academia, in the pages of radical newspapers, and in the jungles and the streets. From Marx through the Battle of Seattle and beyond, Adamovsky traces the beliefs and politics of the major figures in the anticapitalist tradition and explores modern experiments in building different ways of living, in the process providing an indispensible primer for anyone interested in finding alternatives to the so-called "best system we have"—and anyone interested in joining the fight.

Focusing on the often-overlooked narratives of women and Indigenous communities, this comprehensive history spans over five centuries of Argentina's development. Ezequiel Adamovsky critically examines the impacts of Spanish colonization, including gender subjugation and the violence of the Catholic Church. Key events such as independence, military coups, and the rise of Peronism are explored, alongside the effects of neoliberal reforms. This accessible work offers a nuanced understanding of Argentina's complex social, political, and economic landscape up to the 2019 presidential election.
