Adam Smith and ‘The Wealth of Nations’
Read and discuss the works of Adam Smith in this ongoing study group. The group is currently reading Book 4 of Smith's 'The Wealth of Nations'. Smith's notion of capital was important to Marx in the development of Marx's understanding of capital, and Marx frequently quoted from Smith in his discussions in Capital and other writings.
Hegel for Radicals: On Art and Literature
Francis Fukuyama proclaimed The End of History in the 1990’s; art critic Arthur C. Danto proclaimed The End of Art in the 1960s. The genesis of both concepts are credited to Hegel. The MEP’s recurring series Hegel for Radicals resumes with a seminar on Hegel’s Lectures on Aesthetics, where we will study his understanding of art and literature.
