We’Ve Been Speculating, Stefano Harney
We’Ve Been Speculating, Stefano Harney
Stephen Matthias Harney
We’ve been speculating. They say our speculation is going to make things worse. But we keep speculating. We’re on the porch, on the corner, in the bar, at the stove, speculating. We’re with others speculating. We’re in debt, bad debt, with others. We’re speculating on others and they’re speculating on us at the table, round the playground, on the bus. We’ve been speculating, banking on each other. We’ve been counting on others, speculating about them. We’re with them and they’rewith us, speculating.

Ethics In A Time Of Crisis: Editorial Introduction To Special Focus, Stefano Harney, C Jones

The financial crisis that has swept the globe since 2008 still rumbles on. Not only has it precipitated a sovereign debt crisis in Europe, and threatened growth rates and political stability in India and China, but also the liquidity of many banks is still a matter of debate. Despite the refuge that capital has taken in assets other than finance, worries remain that the basic financial machine may again freeze up in a renewed bout of crisis. The alternative to ever-increasing waves of crisis hardly looks more appealing, however. Ordinary people from Britain to Greece, Spain to California, face years …
The Real Knowledge Transfer, Stefano Harney
The Real Knowledge Transfer, Stefano Harney
Stephen Matthias Harney
In Britain, knowledge transfer (KT) is taking a new turn. As a university policy, KT emphasized intellectual property rights. The dream of the managers of the university was to patent knowledge produced in university departments, laboratories, and lecture halls. This new proprietary knowledge would then either earn rent from the private sector, and in some cases the public sector, or lead to the founding of new private firms, owned in part by the university, the so-called spin-off.

Debt And Study, Stefano Harney, F Moten
Debt And Study, Stefano Harney, F Moten
Stephen Matthias Harney
They say we have too much debt. We need better credit, more credit, less spending. They offer us credit repair, credit counseling, microcredit, personal financial planning. They promise to match credit and debt again, debt and credit. But our debts stay bad. We keep buying another song, another round. It is not credit that we seek, nor even debt, but bad debt -- which is to say real debt, the debt that cannot be repaid, the debt at a distance, the debt without creditor, the black debt, the queer debt, the criminal debt. Excessive debt, incalculable debt, debt for no …

Unfinished Business: The Cultural Commodity And Its Labour Process, Stefano Harney
Unfinished Business: The Cultural Commodity And Its Labour Process, Stefano Harney
Stephen Matthias Harney
In what follows I am going to argue that the rise of the creative industries has in general been understood too narrowly. This narrow understanding has had implications for the way that a politics of management and labour in the creative industries has been framed and contained, and it has held back an analysis of class struggle in the creative industries. To elaborate an understanding of labour in the creative industries I am going to revisit some insights related to the development of British cultural studies, and try to link these insights to what Stuart Hall calls the conditions of …
