SUMMARY:Woman\, Life\, Freedom: Iran through the Lens of Antonio Gramsci
DESCRIPTION:With Piruz Alemi\nJuxtaposing documentary video footage with selected readings from Antonio Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks\, we will deepen our understanding of the current uprising among women and young people in Iran. Applying Gramsci’s dual perspective on Individuality/Universality\, Hegemony/Authority\, Force/Consent\, Terror/Legitimacy\, Strategy/Tactic\, Agitation/Propaganda\, and State/Civil Society\, we will examine spontaneous movements\, subaltern groups\, and the balance of domestic and international forces. These sessions will offer an opportunity for participants to document\, write\, screen films\, archive\, brainstorm\, and stay informed about the movement for Woman\, Life\, Freedom in Iran. They will be accessible to people at all levels of familiarity with Gramsci’s work and Iranian history and politics. \nConvened and facilitated by Piruz Alemi\, who holds a PhD in political economy from the New School for Social Research and an MFA in documentary film making from CCNY. He is director of the People of Color International Cultural Exchange Film Festival. He has taught at John Jay College/CUNY for 15 years and holds a research fellowship at Sheffield university in the UK.

SUMMARY:The Prince and The Modern Prince
DESCRIPTION:Machiavelli\, Gramsci: Political Power and 21st Century Capitalism \nNiccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli (1469-1527) is considered by many to be the father of modern political science and political philosophy. In his most famous work\, The Prince\, Machiavelli explores the nature of political power and the relationship between ruler and subjects.\nThe Prince is often viewed as being a handbook for authoritarian rulers while others argue that Machiavelli was in fact a “republican” who inspired the later Enlightenment theorists of political democracy. Machiavelli has also been studied by a range of Marxists\, most notably by Italian theorist Antonio Gramsci who wrote The Modern Prince while still a prisoner of Italy’s fascist regime. Gramsci analyzes Machiavelli in the context of his trying to understand how power is exercised and maintained under capitalism. What does Machiavelli have to offer Marxists and why is he still relevant nearly 500 years after he wrote?\nThis 7-week class will read Machiavelli’s The Prince along with several analyses of it starting with Gramsci but also including Marxist historian Ellen Meiksins Wood (Liberty and Property\, Chapter 3 “The Renaissance City State”) and political philosopher Antionio Negri (Insurgencies\, Chapter 2 “Virtue and Fortune: The Machiavellian Paradigm)\nParticipants should come to the first class having read Chapter 3 (The Renaissance City State) in Ellen Meiksins Wood’s Liberty and Property (available as a free PDF online).
