SUMMARY:The Spectre Still Haunting: Introducing the Revolutionary Politics of Marx and Engels
DESCRIPTION:An introductory 10-week reading group for those just getting acquainted with Marxist ideas\, based on Marx and Engels’ elegant and rousing classic The Manifesto of the Communist Party and Frederick Engels’ Socialism: Utopian and Scientific. We will be guided by China Miéville’s thoughtful\, provocative meditations on the Manifesto\, A Spectre Haunting. While Miéville is best known for his speculative fiction\, he is equally brilliant as a contemporary communist political commentator. \nA manifesto embraces contradiction. It is unafraid of paradox.\nIt provokes and insists and jokes and it’s quite serious. –China Miéville \nFacilitated by David Worley of the MEP’s Revolutions Study Group.

SUMMARY:Commons\, Commoning\, Communism
DESCRIPTION:Various forms of commoning\, some traditional and some not\, provided the proletariat with means of survival in the struggle against capitalism. Commoning is a basis of proletarian class solidarity\, and we can find this before\, during\, and after both the semantic and the political birth of communism. –Peter Linebaugh\nBefore the advent of capitalism\, much of humanity produced their immediate livelihoods on lands and with tools to which they either had rights of use or held as individual property. All that came to a violent end with what Marx preferred to call the “original expropriation” (often misleadingly termed “primitive accumulation”) whereby the producers were deprived of access and the commons were enclosed. Peasants and artisans mounted strong resistance over centuries but in the end a propertyless proletariat emerged in countryside and city in England and other countries where capitalism triumphed. Such struggles continue down to the present\, however\, as working people continue to challenge new forms of expropriation such as intellectual-property laws\, private patents on seeds and other life forms\, displacement of urban communities\, extortion through petty fines and regressive taxation\, and seizures of land and water for mining and other profitable purposes. This reading group will explore the historical roots and persistence of such crimes and resistance by reading together The War Against the Commons\, by Ian Angus; Stop\, Thief! by Peter Linebaugh; and related texts. \nFacilitated by Fred Murphy and Steve Knight of the MEP’s Ecosocialist Study Group.

SUMMARY:Imperialism: The Long View and the Big Picture
DESCRIPTION:Video introduction\nImperialism is an economic and political system of war and conquest by great powers\, but it is also the lived experience of the conquered and subjugated. This almost always entails the murder\, rape\, theft\, enslavement\, and myriad humiliations of the dominated and colonized. Empires have committed genocide\, eliminating entire peoples\, and ethnocide\, erasing the nationality\, language\, and culture of the conquered. And the conquered have resisted\, risen up\, rebelled\, and often succeeded at least for a time in escaping the grip of empires. Even so\, new imperial or neocolonial systems often reimpose their domination in new ways\, leading to further resistance and rebellion. \nIn eight weekly sessions guided by Dan La Botz\, we will look at imperialism in the long view\, from the ancient world to today. We will examine the experience of imperialism and the theoretical justifications for it\, as well as anti-imperialist movements and their arguments. We will look at imperialism as economic phenomenon\, as political strategy\, as cultural experience\, and as psychological affect. We will discuss imperialism and gender and imperialism and the environment. \nSee the initial syllabus for further details. \nDan La Botz is a retired historian of the United States and Latin America and a longtime political activist on the left. He holds a Ph.D. in U.S. History from the University of Cincinnati and has taught at several universities\, most recently in the City University of New York School of Labor and Urban Studies. He is the author of a dozen books and scores of journalistic and academic articles on labor movements\, social movements\, and politics in the United States\, Mexico\, Nicaragua\, and Indonesia. He is a co-editor of the journal New Politics.

SUMMARY:Reading Marx’s Capital\, Volume I (third series)
DESCRIPTION:Covering Parts V through VIII of Capital\, volume 1 \nJoin us as we continue the close reading of Volume 1 of Marx’s Capital begun earlier this year\, guided by an experienced team led by Lisa Maya Knauer. This fall we will be reading Parts V through VIII\, covering Wages\, the Accumulation of Capital\, and the so-called Primitive Accumulation. Each week\, we recap the passages covered at the previous session\, introduce new material\, and open up a discussion. We read the more challenging sections together a paragraph or two at a time. Supplementary materials and/or questions for reflection are circulated prior to each week’s session\, and the conversation continues in the group’s Slack channel. \nLisa Maya Knauer has been involved with Marxist education in New York for her entire adult life\, and has taught a variety of classes at the MEP and its predecessors. Her current activist work focuses on immigrant workers’ rights and indigenous struggles for land and water. In her day job\, she is a tenured radical at a public university. \nReview our Privacy Policy

SUMMARY:Commons\, Commoning\, Communism
DESCRIPTION:Various forms of commoning\, some traditional and some not\, provided the proletariat with means of survival in the struggle against capitalism. Commoning is a basis of proletarian class solidarity\, and we can find this before\, during\, and after both the semantic and the political birth of communism. –Peter Linebaugh\nBefore the advent of capitalism\, much of humanity produced their immediate livelihoods on lands and with tools to which they either had rights of use or held as individual property. All that came to a violent end with what Marx preferred to call the “original expropriation” (often misleadingly termed “primitive accumulation”) whereby the producers were deprived of access and the commons were enclosed. Peasants and artisans mounted strong resistance over centuries but in the end a propertyless proletariat emerged in countryside and city in England and other countries where capitalism triumphed. Such struggles continue down to the present\, however\, as working people continue to challenge new forms of expropriation such as intellectual-property laws\, private patents on seeds and other life forms\, displacement of urban communities\, extortion through petty fines and regressive taxation\, and seizures of land and water for mining and other profitable purposes. This reading group will explore the historical roots and persistence of such crimes and resistance by reading together The War Against the Commons\, by Ian Angus; Stop\, Thief! by Peter Linebaugh; and related texts. \nFacilitated by Fred Murphy and Steve Knight of the MEP’s Ecosocialist Study Group.

SUMMARY:Reading Antonio Gramsci's Prison Notebooks
DESCRIPTION:In these sessions led by Piruz Alemi\, we will continue to study selected passages from Antonio Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks. We delve into key themes and concepts related to civil society and state: politics and the arts\, racism\, class and gender\, religion\, linguistics\, and other methods of analysis\, critical theory\, mass media\, and cinema\, hegemony\, and subaltern studies\, as well as the role of intellectuals and activists in discovering new methods and languages to be transformative. A Gramscian “Past & Present” approach is key to our work. \nThroughout these sessions\, we will attempt to connect our own cultures and life experiences with contemporary struggles such as those unfolding in the Woman\, Life\, Freedom movement in Iran. \nParticipation in previous sessions is not a requirement – all are welcome to join.

We delve into key themes and concepts related to civil society and state: politics and the arts\, racism\, class and gender\, religion\, linguistics\, and other methods of analysis\, critical theory\, mass media\, and cinema\, hegemony\, and subaltern studies\, as well as the role of intellectuals and activists in discovering new methods and languages to be transformative. A Gramscian “Past & Present” approach is key to our work. \nThroughout these sessions\, we will attempt to connect our own cultures and life experiences with contemporary struggles such as those unfolding in the Woman\, Life\, Freedom movement in Iran. \nParticipation in previous sessions is not a requirement – all are welcome to join.

SUMMARY:Summer with Hegel: The Preface to the Phenomenology of Spirit
DESCRIPTION:A seven-week summer course with Alex Steinberg that concludes our ongoing studies of Hegel’s mysterious work\, The Phenomenology of Spirit. We will do a close reading of the Preface to the Phenomenology \, a work that can be read on its own and is considered the most succinct and comprehensive statement of Hegel’s philosophy. \nThese sessions introduce what is living in Hegel for those who want to change the world. No prior experience with Hegel or attendance at previous classes is expected or required. Our goal is to make Hegel’s dialectic less mysterious as we go along and try to tease out the revolutionary implications in his thought and its significance for our time. \nWe will be reading Terry Pinkard’s translation of the Phenomenology\, published by Cambridge University Press. A free version is available online. \nAlex Steinberg is an independent scholar. He has taught on topics such as the Philosophy of Heidegger and Nazism\, Marxism and Humanism\, and Hegel’s Philosophy of History at various alternative educational institutions and informally. He was a Conference Presenter at the First International Conference on Trotsky in Havana\, Cuba. Alex has been also involved with the governance of WBAI radio in New York and its parent organization\, Pacifica\, most recently as the Chair of the Pacifica National Board from 2019-2021.
