"A new way to find the universal in the particular, which is the kind of thinking tool we are in desperate need of at the moment. "Malcolm Harris, New York Magazine. In this fiery, theoretical tour-de-force by the hosts of the hit podcast Death Panel, Beatrice Adler-Bolton and Artie Vierkant chronicle life and death under capitalism and argue for a new global left politics aimed at severing the ties between capital and health. Adler-Bolton and Vierkant show how capital has instrumentalized health, disability, and madness to create a surplus class regarded as a financial and social burden. Health Communism proposes a radical politics of solidarity that recognizes we are all surplus and looks at the ways capitalists have responded to movements that challenge the extractive economy of health. Capital, it turns out, fears only health. "A call for a new and expansive concept of health as a commons, a collective experience, and a collective commitment to human flourishing, freed from the ideological and financial strictures of market discipline. "The New Republic. "If you have ever gone to work sick because you need the job to treat the sickness, you know the basic argument of Health Communism to be true: health under capitalism is an impossibility.
