SUMMARY:The Necessity of Social Control by István Mészáros
DESCRIPTION:Presented with The Capital Studies Group\n“We are living in a time of unprecedented historical crisis\, which affects all forms of the capital system\, not just capitalism. It is easy to understand\, then\, that the only thing that could produce a viable solution to the contradictions that we have to face would be a radical socialist alternative to capital’s mode of social metabolic control.”   István Mészáros \nThese sessions are devoted to a close reading of Mészáros’ The Necessity of Social Control (Monthly Review Press). We read in order to better understand the fundamental contradictions of capitalism\, the forms of domination and exploitation inherent in its logic\, historical efforts to develop an alternative economy and society\, and the challenge of sustainable development and substantive equality. We aim to develop our own knowledge of the necessary conditions for emancipation and discuss the relevance of the text for our lives today. \nDaniel Singer writes that the most important lesson from Mészáros “is the confrontation between two fundamentally opposed “metabolisms.” The rule of capital is presented as an integrated system… The socialist project must be equally comprehensive… How do you mobilize people within the framework of the existing society\, while providing answers that take you beyond its confines?” \nThe Capital Studies Group has been meeting from the beginning of The Marxist Education Project during the fall of 2014. We are a diverse group of students\, activists and teachers from all corners of the world who have dedicated ourselves to the reading of all three volumes of Marx’s Capital and related works to such a study. \nAll events are sliding scale—choose the level at which you choose to contribute to The Marxist Education Project. No one is denied admission to any event or class because of an inability to pay. Send an email to info@mepnet.wpenginepowered.com to obtain an entry url to any. event or class presented by The Marxist Education Project.

SUMMARY:A close reading of Karl Marx’s Writings on Alienation
DESCRIPTION:with the Capital Studies Group\nMany authors who have written on this concept over the 20th century have  primarily based their interpretations on Marx’s early writings. In this anthology\, however\, Marcello Musto focuses in on Marx’s later economic works\, in which his thoughts on alienation were elaborated rather differently than in his philosophical manuscripts. Additionally\, the writings collated in this volume are unique in their presentation of not only Marx’s critique of capitalism\, but also his suggestions about communist society. This wide-ranging collection of Marx’s ideas on alienation provides an important critical tool both for understanding the past and for building a critique of contemporary society. \nThis group will read and discuss the Introduction to this collection and then the selections from Marx’s writings on alienation\, beginning with the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844. From there we move on to key passages from Grundrisse and Capital\, Volumes One and Three. We will read and discuss the book in its entirety. We welcome those who are new to Marxist ideas as well as those who have read broadly in the works of Marx and others on these topics. \n  \n

SUMMARY:A close reading of Karl Marx’s Writings on Alienation
DESCRIPTION:with the Capital Studies Group\nMany authors who have written on this concept over the 20th century have  primarily based their interpretations on Marx’s early writings. In this anthology\, however\, Marcello Musto focuses in on Marx’s later economic works\, in which his thoughts on alienation were elaborated rather differently than in his philosophical manuscripts. Additionally\, the writings collated in this volume are unique in their presentation of not only Marx’s critique of capitalism\, but also his suggestions about communist society. This wide-ranging collection of Marx’s ideas on alienation provides an important critical tool both for understanding the past and for building a critique of contemporary society. \nThis group will read and discuss the Introduction to this collection and then the selections from Marx’s writings on alienation\, beginning with the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844. From there we move on to key passages from Grundrisse and Capital\, Volumes One and Three. We will read and discuss the book in its entirety. We welcome those who are new to Marxist ideas as well as those who have read broadly in the works of Marx and others on these topics. \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Necessity of Social Control by István Mészáros
DESCRIPTION:Presented with The Capital Studies Group\n“We are living in a time of unprecedented historical crisis\, which affects all forms of the capital system\, not just capitalism. It is easy to understand\, then\, that the only thing that could produce a viable solution to the contradictions that we have to face would be a radical socialist alternative to capital’s mode of social metabolic control.”   István Mészáros \nThese sessions are devoted to a close reading of Mészáros’ The Necessity of Social Control (Monthly Review Press). We read in order to better understand the fundamental contradictions of capitalism\, the forms of domination and exploitation inherent in its logic\, historical efforts to develop an alternative economy and society\, and the challenge of sustainable development and substantive equality. We aim to develop our own knowledge of the necessary conditions for emancipation and discuss the relevance of the text for our lives today. \nDaniel Singer writes that the most important lesson from Mészáros “is the confrontation between two fundamentally opposed “metabolisms.” The rule of capital is presented as an integrated system… The socialist project must be equally comprehensive… How do you mobilize people within the framework of the existing society\, while providing answers that take you beyond its confines?” \nThe Capital Studies Group has been meeting from the beginning of The Marxist Education Project during the fall of 2014. We are a diverse group of students\, activists and teachers from all corners of the world who have dedicated ourselves to the reading of all three volumes of Marx’s Capital and related works to such a study. \nAll events are sliding scale—choose the level at which you choose to contribute to The Marxist Education Project. No one is denied admission to any event or class because of an inability to pay.

SUMMARY:A close reading of Karl Marx’s Writings on Alienation
DESCRIPTION:with the Capital Studies Group\nMany authors who have written on this concept over the 20th century have  primarily based their interpretations on Marx’s early writings. In this anthology\, however\, Marcello Musto focuses in on Marx’s later economic works\, in which his thoughts on alienation were elaborated rather differently than in his philosophical manuscripts. Additionally\, the writings collated in this volume are unique in their presentation of not only Marx’s critique of capitalism\, but also his suggestions about communist society. This wide-ranging collection of Marx’s ideas on alienation provides an important critical tool both for understanding the past and for building a critique of contemporary society. \nThis group will read and discuss the Introduction to this collection and then the selections from Marx’s writings on alienation\, beginning with the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844. From there we move on to key passages from Grundrisse and Capital\, Volumes One and Three. We will read and discuss the book in its entirety. We welcome those who are new to Marxist ideas as well as those who have read broadly in the works of Marx and others on these topics. \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Necessity of Social Control by István Mészáros
DESCRIPTION:Presented with The Capital Studies Group\n“We are living in a time of unprecedented historical crisis\, which affects all forms of the capital system\, not just capitalism. It is easy to understand\, then\, that the only thing that could produce a viable solution to the contradictions that we have to face would be a radical socialist alternative to capital’s mode of social metabolic control.”   István Mészáros \nThese sessions are devoted to a close reading of Mészáros’ The Necessity of Social Control (Monthly Review Press). We read in order to better understand the fundamental contradictions of capitalism\, the forms of domination and exploitation inherent in its logic\, historical efforts to develop an alternative economy and society\, and the challenge of sustainable development and substantive equality. We aim to develop our own knowledge of the necessary conditions for emancipation and discuss the relevance of the text for our lives today. \nDaniel Singer writes that the most important lesson from Mészáros “is the confrontation between two fundamentally opposed “metabolisms.” The rule of capital is presented as an integrated system… The socialist project must be equally comprehensive… How do you mobilize people within the framework of the existing society\, while providing answers that take you beyond its confines?” \nThe Capital Studies Group has been meeting from the beginning of The Marxist Education Project during the fall of 2014. We are a diverse group of students\, activists and teachers from all corners of the world who have dedicated ourselves to the reading of all three volumes of Marx’s Capital and related works to such a study. \nAll events are sliding scale—choose the level at which you choose to contribute to The Marxist Education Project. No one is denied admission to any event or class because of an inability to pay.

SUMMARY:The Embrace of Capital with author Don Milligan
DESCRIPTION:Capitalism has swallowed us whole. It’s a love hate relationship.\nA presentation and discussion with Don Milligan\n“So refreshing and joyously subversive to read a communist’s analysis of why communism is so terribly unappetizing.” —Yanis Yaroufakis\nThe “spectre of communism” which Karl Marx confidently evoked in 1848 is now nothing more than a ghostly and ghastly nightmare\, without form or substance. This is because working people have developed a love-hate relationship with capitalism. They hate insecurity\, inequality\, and greed\, and love civic and political freedom. They love mass consumption\, and accept the logic of commerce. Barreling along through wars\, revolutions\, epidemics\, and crises of all sorts\, working people in their millions have consistently dumfounded and dismayed the left\, by their refusal to countenance any alternative to the capitalist mode of life. We have to ask: Is it possible to reverse this reality\, and once again talk of the necessity of communism? \nDon Milligan has been a gay activist\, trade unionist\, and a member of the communist movement for many decades. He published the pamphlet\, The Politics of Homosexuality in 1973\, and The Truth About the Aids Panic\, with Michael Fitzpatrick in 1987\, and also completed a doctoral thesis\, ‘The Aesthetic of Emancipation: A study of the relation between Raymond Williams’s socialism and his literary criticism\, cultural analysis and theoretical writings’\, in 2003. He lives in Manchester\, UK. \nTo order Don’s book: https://www.johnhuntpublishing.com/zer0-books/ordering/ \n
