==Career==
 
Kees van der Pijl studied law at [[Leiden University]] from 1965 to 1967. After military service as a reserve officer in the Royal Dutch Military Police, and a trip through the [[Soviet Union]] to [[Japan]] in 1970, he switched to political science, a specialisation taught in Leiden as part of the public law degree. His most influential teachers were Hans Daalder, Ben Sijes, and the Indologist, J.C. Heesterman, with whom he wrote his final thesis on the politics of regional diversity in India.

The study of transnational class formation was central in the work at the University of Amsterdam. It built on the writings of Christian Palloix, Nikos Poulantzas, Alfred Sohn-Rethel and on the materialist [[Cold War]] history in the [[United States]] (Joyce and [[Gabriel Kolko]]). Van der Pijl’s contribution was on the transmission of American mass production to Western Europe in the [[Marshall Plan]] and the relegation of the cartelised European steel industry to the role of a supplier for the automobile industry, resulting in a first book in Dutch (1978). Economic statesmen involved in this process weld their different ‘fractional’ perspectives (heavy/light industrial, national/international trade, investment and commercial banking, etc.) into ‘globale beheersconcepties’ (comprehensive concepts of control, a notion coined by Ries Bode). A concept of control projects a presumed general interest totalising all others, under the guidance of the dominant fraction. In his doctoral dissertation of 1983 and the book based on it ("The Making of an Atlantic Ruling Class", Verso 1984, reprinted with a new preface 2012), Van der Pijl applied this to the evolution of transatlantic class formation. In "Transnational Classes and International Relations" (Routledge 1998), [[neoliberalism]] is identified as the hegemonic concept of control in the closing decades of the 20th century. This book also analyses the managerial ''cadre'', an auxiliary class of salaried functionaries with directive-educative roles. The ''cadre'' typically came to the fore in major crises (the 1930s, the 1970s, and again today), proposing managerial alternatives to liberalism. If not checked by popular mobilisation, their intervention may assume authoritarian forms.

Challenging the state-centric understanding of world politics, which assumes that each state contains a self-enclosed society, van der Pijl distinguishes a ''Lockean heartland'' (after the ideologue of the "1688 Glorious Revolution in England") at the centre of the global political economy. This is composed of the white-majority, English-speaking countries. Its common law tradition favouring social self-regulation and distrust of state encroachment, ideology of possessive individualism, and missionary interpretation of its role in the world (inspired by Puritanism) have fostered the development of capitalist social relations. The Lockean heartland has interacted with rival states seeking to impose themselves on their societies, to balance and withstand the influence of the liberal West and avoid colonisation. These ''contender states'', of which [[France]] in the long 18th century, [[Germany]], [[Japan]] and [[Italy]] from the late 19th to the mid-20th centuries, and the [[Soviet Union]] after [[World War II]], have been the most important ones, develop through revolutions from above (Gramsci’s ''passive revolution'') into alternatives to transnational Western liberalism. This line of analysis, developed in "Transnational Classes and International Relations" and more recently in "Global Rivalries from the Cold War to Iraq" (Pluto and Sage-Vistaar 2006, Turkish trans., Imge 2014) leads to the identification of [[China]] as the current primary contender.

Building on the concepts of the Anglophone Lockean heartland and the contender states, Van der Pijl in "Vordenker der Weltpolitik" (Leske+Budrich 1996, revised from an earlier work in Dutch) argued that the liberal West typically produced ‘idealist’ conceptions of world order, against the ‘realist’ power politics perspective of the contenders. After [[World War I]], there was an exodus of such ‘realists’ from the European continent to the [[United States]], incorporating the realist argument into the IR mainstream. At Sussex, Van der Pijl has posted a web-textbook for the MA in Global Political Economy, "A Survey of Global Political Economy". In volumes II and III of his "Modes of foreign relations" project, Van der Pijl discusses what myth and religion say about foreign relations, and how liberalism prescribes the nation-state form for the world. The third volume, "The Discipline of Western Supremacy" (2014) presents a historical sociology of the IR discipline in this light.

In the Modes of foreign relations project, sponsored by the [[Leverhulme Trust]] under a major research fellowship 2006-2009, Van der Pijl argues that inter-state relations (as well as the national state form itself) are transient, historical forms of more fundamental foreign relations. Just as [[Karl Marx|Marx]] developed a critique of equilibrium economics by claiming that this was only one ‘mode of production’, which had been preceded and would be followed by others, Van der Pijl in this project challenges the ‘IR’ paradigm. Modes of foreign relations include a tribal, an empire/nomad, the sovereign equality, and the global governance modes; in each, a specific way occupation of space, its protection, and the exchange with others, are made possible by a given level of civilisation.

Kees van der Pijl (27 April 2020)  Health Emergency or Seizure of Power? The Political Economy of Covid-19 [1]

Kees van der Pijl is a Dutch political scientist who gave up his status as Emeritus Professor of International Relations at the University of Sussex after refusing to retract a link to 9-11/Israel did it article on this website.[2] On 3 November 2018, Kees van der Pijl had tweeted:

"Not Saudis, Israelis blew up Twin Towers with help from Zionists in US govt." The tweet included a link to the article 9-11/Israel did it on this web site.[3]

Van der Pijl is known for his critical approach to global political economy and has published, amongst others, "Flight MH17, Ukraine and the New Cold War. Prism of Disaster" (2018), a trilogy on "Modes of Foreign Relations and Political Economy" (2007, 2010, 2014); "Global Rivalries from the Cold War to Iraq" (2006); "Transnational Classes and International Relations" (1998); and "The Making of an Atlantic Ruling Class" (1984, reprinted 2012).[4] His latest book "States of Emergency: Keeping the Global Population in Check" was published on 31 January 2022.[5] Robin Ramsay gave the book an unfavourable review in the Winter 2022 issue of Lobster magazine.[6]

Career

Kees van der Pijl studied law at Leiden University from 1965 to 1967. After military service as a reserve officer in the Royal Dutch Military Police, and a trip through the Soviet Union to Japan in 1970, he switched to political science, a specialisation taught in Leiden as part of the public law degree. His most influential teachers were Hans Daalder, Ben Sijes, and the Indologist, J.C. Heesterman, with whom he wrote his final thesis on the politics of regional diversity in India. He graduated in 1973 and was hired as a junior lecturer by the Department of International Relations at the University of Amsterdam in that year. In 1983 he received his doctorate at the University of Amsterdam on a thesis titled Imperialism and Class Formation in the North Atlantic Area, supervised by Gerd Junne. He was involved in the Communist Party of the Netherlands (CPN) and also published short stories and three novels (1989, 1992, 1994, all with De Harmonie). Van der Pijl was co-director of the Research Centre for International Political Economy (Recipe) from 1992 to 1998. With Henk Overbeek, Ries Bode, Otto Holman, Bastiaan van Apeldoorn and others, this created a tentative Amsterdam School of global political economy.[7][8]

In 2000, Van der Pijl moved to the United Kingdom to take up the chair in international relations at the University of Sussex, vacant after the retirement of Professor Michael Nicholson. He was appointed director of the Centre for Global Political Economy[9] (CGPE) at that university when it was launched in 2001 (until 2006), and was subject chair/head of the Department of Politics and International Relations from 2002 to 2004. In 2006 he was awarded a Leverhulme Major Research Fellowship. He has taught as a visiting professor at the University of Auvergne at Clermont-Ferrand (2005, 2006) and at the L’Orientale University in Naples (2009, 2010). His work has been nominated for prizes in 2007 and 2008 and he was awarded the Deutscher Memorial Prize in 2008 for Nomads, Empires, States (Pluto 2007).[10] On his return to the Netherlands he joined the Dutch Anti-Fascist Resistance (AFVN/BvA, issued from the wartime communist underground). He was its president from 2013 to October 2015 and was involved in launching a Committee of Vigilance Against Resurgent Fascism of which he is the current president.

Opinions

Daily mail 911 israel did it.jpg

Kees van der Pijl stated that Israel was behind the 9/11 attacks "with help from Zionists in the US government", linking in the “9-11/Israel did it” page on this website:

"This article presents evidence that the Israeli deep state was the prime mover in the events of 9/11. Note that it does not imply that other groups (i.e. the US deep state and maybe others) were not involved in both the commission and cover-up of the September 11 attacks.
"The 9/11 event advanced the neocon Project for the New American Century (PNAC) agenda, with its explicitly stated need for 'a catastrophic and catalysing event - like a new Pearl Harbor' in order to mobilise US public opinion for already planned wars, the effects of which would be to destroy Israel's enemies."[11]

A Quote by Kees van der Pijl

PageQuoteDate
The Great Reset“The Great Reset is one of the labels of what I call »ultra-capitalism«. In this variety of capitalism, the plan is to expropriate all private property that has not yet been absorbed into big corporate property, including the portfolios of large holding companies like BlackRock and Vanguard. Capitalism by itself tends to concentrate and centralise ownership, but in light of popular unrest and economic dysfunction, the WEF project is to accelerate this process top-down and so complete the capitalist trajectory. Private property other than held by the largest units must disappear and the WEF slogan, »You will own nothing and be happy« refers to the presumed end-state of the system. No private car ownership, ideally no air travel, and a slow expropriation of private home ownership would certainly assure the first part of the slogan.”6 August 2023
