Book excerpt: Endnotes is a journal/book series published by a discussion group based in Germany, the UK and the US. It is primarily oriented towards conceptualising the conditions of possibility of a communist overcoming of the capitalist mode of production--and of the multiple structures of domination which pattern societies characterised by that mode of production--starting from present conditions. As such it has been concerned with debates in communist theory, and particularly the problematic of "communisation"; the question of gender and its abolition; the analysis of contemporary struggles, movements and political economy; the dynamics of surplus population and its effects on capital and class; capitalist formations of "race"; value-form theory and systematic dialectics; the revolutionary failures and impasses of the 20th Century. Endnotes 2 (Misery and the Value Form) includes: surplus capital and surplus populations; crisis in the class relation; the housing question in the US; communisation and value-form theory; the systematic dialectic of capital as a dialectic of class struggle; 'subsumption' and the periodisation of capitalism; and sleep-worker's enquiry.
