Stefan Feld is a bit of a legend. Known for making games described as ‘point salads’ where you can literally score points in a variety of ways. Known for Castles of Burgundy, Feld games are often accused of lacking theme, or being dry and in many ways Forum Trajanum is no different. But by using some interesting mechanisms and a variety of ways to score points, Stefan Feld has almost done it again.

While not on the same level as Castles of Burgundy or some of Feld’s other classics, Trajanum is definitely up there. In the game you will be taking tokens from your player board to make space for buildings which you will then use in various point scoring ways. The tokens represent citizens on one side, but give you actions on the other side.

Each turn you will take two tokens from your board, choosing one for yourself and passing one on to the player to your left. Once each player has a token of theirs and one of another players, everyone chooses the actions they wish to take.

Actions tend to get you more wooden meeples of various colours which then allow you to build. You can also gain various upgrades but you will have to pay the wages of citizens used for upgrades.

Due to the numerous points available you will have to decide whether to specialise in one area or spread yourself thinner. There is some player interaction in the battle to populate a main area on the board in a mini area control battle.

In typical Feld fashion, you get more points the early you achieve things which drives you to really focus in the early rounds. The whole game smacks of clever design and plays quicker than you would expect. If you enjoy your ‘point salad’ games then this is one for you.

An essential book on U.S. race and capitalism!
Format: Paperback
One of the most important books on race and capitalism ever written. Such a nuanced study of the California penal system that includes the racist structure of the United States’ criminal justice system, but goes far beyond to analyze how capitalism and profit drive politicians, police, investors, landowners, and working class people—white and Black—to expand the prison system in an age of dropping crime rates. I teach it regularly to undergraduates and graduate students, and it drives fascinating discussions.

Format: Paperback
If anyone has mastered the political economy and geography of prisons in California, it is Ruth Wilson Gilmore in Golden Gulag. Gilmore does a great job of discussing and parceling out the very complex and complicated relationships that exist between capitalism as a system that produces our material world alongside economic crises, and the function of prisons to absorb, manage, relocate and "hide" those very crises in the era of neoliberalism. She also skillfully reminds us over and over that it is black and brown working-class poor communities that bear the brunt of this kind of system that also expresses it's power via white supremacy. I am finding this book very useful and chock-full of interesting information for my current research. People may find the book a difficult read because it loaded with information and technicalities they are unfamiliar with, but these are good reasons to struggle with a text and truly grasp the increasingly intricate processes that determine and guide the world we live in (and the places we may end up locked in!). As Marx said, there is no royal road to science and knowledge.

Format: Paperback
I'm still reading it but its a great book. It makes me think about how much money is invested in keeping poor and people of color populations in prison. The prison industrial complex is no joke. This book provides the studies, chart and details of what I always thought. There's plenty of money to be made keeping the 'right people in prison' and finding new victims such as immigrants and school kids.
