Democratic Transhumanism Luddism is a political dead-end for progressive politics. Luddism has also risen to ascendence in Western bioethics, which has a professional interest in fear-mongering about new technologies. First, left Luddism inappropriately equates technologies with the power relations around those technologies. www.changesurfer.com /Acad/DemocraticTranshumanism.htm   (9133 words)

Marxism message, Re: "Red vs. Green" -Reply I suspect the "neo"-luddism as a term is intended as a rehabilitation of the word, the point being to return to the original luddism as an entirely valid critique which should be continued and developed further. Of course, they were painted by the capitalists as "opponents of progress", so "Luddism" came to represent unreasoning hatred of technology. They did actually smash some machinery in shops where owners would not negotiate with them. archives.econ.utah.edu /archives/marxism/1995-09-18.000/msg00273.htm   (296 words)

Nature and Women in a Mexican Dystopia: As a result, at the end of the twentieth century, Luddism has reappeared in the form of Neo-Luddism. On the contrary, as Sales points out, Luddism has surfaced in practically every other society to which the industrial system and culture were subsequently spread. Today, our world is undergoing a profound transformation, which, like the first Industrial Revolution, is driven by rapid technological and economic change and, also like the first one, has resulted in widespread social dislocations and environmental destruction (Sale 20). www.lehman.cuny.edu /ciberletras/v04/deFays.html   (4162 words)

neo-luddites~ But these incidents, though having clear overtones of Luddism (Time called the Post pressmen "Washington Luddites"), were not make part of any larger union campaign and were isolated because they failed to build this instance of technological displacement into a larger political issue about the general impact of technology in the workplace. Indeed, that may be what makes them fittingly neo-Luddites, as Chellis Glendinning's definition suggests, rather than true replicas of the originals. Now it must be said that what links these diverse people is essentially a philosophical kind of Luddism. greenfield.fortunecity.com /crawdad/213/neolud.html   (3908 words)

[05-15-96] Walter Truett Anderson, Neo-Luddism the Latest Fashionable Topic -- on Campuses, in Coffee Shops, Over the Internet! While most people sensibly refuse to be polarized into techno optimist or techno pessimist, technophile or technophobe, the new Luddism has become a fashionable topic for conversation around the campuses, the coffee shops and the New Age bookstores -- and, irony of ironies, on the Internet. That the anti-hero of this movement should be the Unabomber is another one of its ironies. www.pacificnews.org /jinn/stories/2.10/960515-luddite.html   (844 words)

Swamp Fever At any rate, the result is the same, as when Bookchin publicly denounces deep ecology as an ecofascist “cesspool” and the Fifth Estate critical luddism as part of a sinister “neo-Heideggerian reaction” with eco-fascist implications. If Nazis stumbled on ideas resembling green and deep ecological insights in any way, that is supposedly enough to discredit these insights—a logic which does not serve social ecology well, either, as my essay demonstrates below. www.stewarthomesociety.org /ga/swamp.htm   (11354 words)

RCCS: View Book Info Many pages are spent detailing the widespread resistance to Luddism in Britain, citing examples from Harold Wilson of the Labor Party during the 1960s declaring "there is no room for Luddites in the Socialist Party" (42) to Margaret Thatcher in the 1980s calling all those who stood in the way of neo-liberalism "Luddites". Acknowledging that Luddites and Luddite violence has been met with practically universal disapproval, the authors find in Luddism an inspirational historical model for a resistance of capitalism and technology: "Luddism represented an attitude of resistance, of refusal by working people to be defined and dominated by capital, that was appropriate to the nineteenth century" (39). In order to find examples of encouraging contemporary reinterpretations of the spirit of Luddism, Robins and Webster invoke new social movements in Britain, such as environmental groups acting against mining corporations or against development in Sherwood Forest. www.com.washington.edu /rccs/bookinfo.asp?ReviewID=138&BookID=119   (1500 words)
