*All talks, papers by date (485+)*

Always in progress: a list of what I have published or formally presented by year, with links wherever possible, and a few unpublished pieces that were finished, but for one reason or another, didn’t get published in the end. I do not list courses/ modules/ political schools I have run, for which see HERE or ephemera or newspaper citations. I have, however, included specific inputs I wrote and presented for workshops and political schools that I did not run. There are still some gaps e.g.  some talks, some translations, some booklets/ pamphlets, some things I have forgotten, stuff online at dead sites etc. Also I have not linked everything on the list below (as yet) to online copies, including materials available at this site — so search the site if a online link is not given on this list.
