This book traces the Black American community’s transition to an intersectional model, revealing how capitalism now uses the images of its youth, athletes, and women to assimilate Black people into the neoliberal global order.

Author's books
Capitalism, Lakouism, and Libertarian Communism
This work highlights the Haitian Lakou, a form of libertarian communism. To free people from the exploitation and climate change of neoliberal capitalism, it must be vertically integrated at the nation-state level.
Haitian Epistemology
This work explores the philosophical basis for phenomenological structuralism, giving a hermeneutical approach to understanding and resolving the structure/agency problematic of the social sciences.
Identity and Ideology in the Haitian U.S. Diaspora
A new identity is emerging among Haitian-American youth. Forged by the consciousness of the black American underclass and its street culture, it now challenges the traditional bourgeois values and the Vodou Ethic of their Haitian heritage.
Mocombe explores the nature of learning and development in the philosophy of phenomenological structuralism, which represents an effort to resolve the structure/agency problematic of the social sciences within structurationist sociological theory.
The Black/White Academic Achievement Gap and Mocombe’s Reading Room Series Curriculum
This work highlights how the black American academic achievement gap is a product of capitalist forces and structural reproduction. To resolve the gap, it argues that black Americans should be treated as immigrant students against their structurally differentiated identities.
The Theory of Phenomenological Structuralism
This publication explores phenomenological structural sociology, specifically the use of phenomenological structuralism in an effort to resolve the structure/agency problematic of the social sciences within structurationist sociological theory.
Theory of Language and Meaning in Phenomenological Structuralism
Paul C. Mocombe’s theory of phenomenological structuralism reveals language’s dual role: to capture reality and structure our world, even as we use ego-centered discourse to defer meaning.
Third Wave Feminism and Feminist Patriarchy in Neoliberal Globalization
This work argues that third-wave feminine activism has given rise to feminine patriarchy. In their push for equality, women have paradoxically reproduced the patriarchy, seeking integration into the system rather than changing it, reifying their identity as feminine men.
