Philosophical Misframings of Poverty

This chapter explains why viewing poverty as needs scarcity caused by a maldistribution of resources has led many philosophers to ignore critical aspects of poverty and their underlying structural causes. The depoliticized view of chronic deprivation held by philosophers focused on the “moral demands of affluence” is closely linked with the moral doctrine of “sufficientarianism,” whose proponents reject or minimize the significance of inequality as such. “Effective altruism,” a popular movement promoting an evidence-based approach to improving the world through philanthropy, draws on sufficientarianism’s apolitical view of poverty as reducible to needs deprivation, measurable in terms of income and consumption. This chapter argues that ignoring the structural drivers and nonmaterial dimensions of poverty—like social exclusion, dispossession, exploitation, and subordination—leads theorists to overlook the vital role of organized poor communities’ struggles for justice.

The “Nested” Power of TNCs: Smallholders’ Biggest Challenge

The plight of smallholder farmers vis-à-vis their highly concentrated input providers and distributors is well known. This article highlights the embeddedness of dyadic power relations within broader economic, political, and social institutions governing the relations between transnational corporations (TNCs) and smallholders. It provides a Gramscian gaze into the deep roots of TNCs in the neoliberal historic bloc and argues that challenging the power of the TNCs requires a comprehensive strategy that goes much beyond the capacity of smallholders. It requires a broad-based popular movement crossing the North-South divide.

The Barbet Movement in the Times of the French Revolution: Peasants, Counter-Revolutionaries, Bandits?

During the French Revolution, an anti-French rebel movement, known as the barbets, took place at the territories of the County of Nice and Piedmont. Barbets were the forerunners of the Italian Insorgenze of 1796—1814. At the territories where the barbets units operated, the power of the new French administration was weak, the roads were unsafe, robbery and smuggling flourished. From time to time, small and large uprisings broke out in rural communes and cities in the region. The Nice region and part of Piedmont were in a state of permanent civil war, which in the official French discourse was called “banditisme” or “brigandage”. The rise of the Barbet movement was in 1796—1800. Only at the time of the Consulate the French government managed to partially eliminate this threat to order and civil peace. The author of the article, based on archive sources and newest historiography, presents a new view on the barbet movement, paying a special attention to clan conflicts among rioters and the social composition of this popular movement in general.

The Consequences of Terror, 1794–1796

Returning from his missions, Rousselin found the capital riven by factions divided in part by the proper role of Revolutionary violence. After reining in the popular movement in March, the faction led by Maximilien Robespierre turned on Rousselin’s patrons, Camille Desmoulins and Georges-Jacques Danton, who were guillotined in April 1794. Rousselin sought alternative networks but Robespierre and Georges Couthon turned on him and sent him to the Revolutionary Tribunal because of denunciations from Troyes. Rousselin helped to gather former friends of Danton and pushed ultra-terrorists like Joseph Fouche to act. On 9 Thermidor, Robespierre and his friends were executed in turn. The Terror, however, continued as many of the tactics of the terrorists were turned against them by those they had tormented. Rousselin spent two years in and out of jail until an amnesty was proclaimed in 1796.

The Making of a Terrorist, 1792–1794

As Danton’s secretary and an activist in Paris, Alexandre Rousselin was baptized in Revolutionary violence during the September Massacres. With the establishment of the Republic, the hopes and fears of militants increasingly saw violence as justified to protect the Revolution. Rousselin emerged as a spokesperson for the popular movement when it demanded the arrest of a political faction known as the Girondins on 31 May 1793. This action helped him become an influential journalist and bureaucrat as an ad hoc system of governmental Terror was created. As part of that process, Rousselin was sent eastward to Champagne by the Committee of Public Safety in the fall of 1793. First in Provins and then in Troyes, Rousselin deployed novel instruments of popular pressure so widespread in Paris against recalcitrant populations that did not feel the same urgency. He became a terrorist for what he thought were the best of reasons.

Education for Change, 1773–1792

Of humble background Alexandre received a first-class education thanks to a long-term relationship between his mother and a noble army officer. At Paris’ Collège d’Harcourt, he gained the tools to interact with and serve alongside France’s elite. He attached himself to a young lawyer, Camille Desmoulins, who played an important role in whipping up popular enthusiasm in the Palais Royale during the crisis of July 1789 and emerged as an important journalist. Rousselin became his confidential secretary but then switched over to Georges-Jacques Danton, an orator and politician of growing influence. Intimately engaged in the work of both men, Rousselin watched and participated in the growth of Paris’ popular movement as Louis XVI’s intransigence and foreign war led toward the overthrow of the monarchy on 10 August 1792.
