"Immaterial Labor and Cultural Production: The Dialectic of Late Capitalism" (2023). Get 25% off using: PROMO25! www.cambridgescholars.com/product/978-... #capitalism #sociology #marxism #culture
The notion of immaterial labor is, at the beginning of the 21st century, a central issue for understanding the transformations of late capitalism. Contrary to those who pointed to the emergence of the immaterial as an intellectual fashion, every day, there is evidence that the critical thinking about capitalism requires new reflexive parameters regarding the categories of value, commodity, and wage labor. This book brings unsettling reflections about the inseparability, in the present historical moment, between the spheres of labor and culture, showing that the production of capitalist wealth has presented new features

Economists have basically the same methods training I received, just better PR. I’m representing a sociological perspective, which I think is broader and more interesting than Econ. I still go to the sociology professional meetings and maintain some of my grad school connections.

Got ya! I am curious - why are you compelled to identify as a “sociologist”? I know folks wirh end stage economic degrees identify as economist outside of the academy. I wish more of us would. What factors led you to continuing identifying as a professional sociologist?

Central issue that ticks me off. Why there is a need to mark professional sociologists from sociology-doers. The media cannot tell the difference too many times z

Here is a piece I wrote *in 2017* about the strategy and I wish I had been wrong. www.insidehighered.com/advice/2017/...
insidehighered.com
The right is using the comments of left-wing professors to delegitimize higher ed (essay)
By targeting the comments of presumably left-wing professors, the right is using free speech as part of their long-term strategy of delegitimizing higher education itself, writes Victor Ray.

@sociological.bsky.social, I assume the answers will be outstanding, and go beyond where the body of research is already.

It’s been tough, to the say the least. I think there is male and international bias in who uses the #socsky. Lot of those are not sociologists, even they admit. In Europe. #soc stands for “social” not “sociology”. I have tried to dock more variation on the @sociological.bsky.sociology feed.

Professional Sociologist Doing Sociology Everywhere @sociological.bsky.social · 17/11/2024
Yeah, I noticed the slant as well, likely bc those were early users. As such, I’ve intentionally tried to find folks from other communities. Not easy. using the longer ties of #sociologysky and #sociologicalsky could help, since #socsky picks up a lot of social scientists who are not sociologists
