  • Episode 37: Anna Tsing, "The Mushroom at the End of the World" (2/2)
    May 27 2026

    A pretty short episode capping off this rather long series on James Scott and others. Anna Tsing's thoughts on disturbed areas is amazing and relevant to how to make sense of our disrupted world. I guess I was excited to start my look at Sven Beckert's Capitalism: A Global History. Not sure if he is an American though (Born in Germany I guess). Should not matter. Let's do this. Next ten episodes will look at this mammoth book.

    May 19 2026

    In this episode I look at The Mushroom at the End of the World by Anna Tsing. In this first half of the book we explore the human history of the matsutake mushroom. This great book will be the conclusion of this series that began with our look at The Moral Economy of the Peasant so many months ago.
