SUMMARY:Adam Smith and ‘The Wealth of Nations’
DESCRIPTION:Join Russell Dale to read and discuss the works of Adam Smith in this ongoing study group. At present the group is 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.\n \nWe are reading the Oxford University Press edition of the work – the full title is An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (1976; General editors: R. H. Campbell and A. S. Skinner; textual editor: W. B. Todd). The book has been republished by The Liberty Fund and made widely available in a two-volume photographic reproduction edition. \nRussell Dale taught philosophy at Lehman College\, CUNY\, for many years but is now retired. He has been a collaborator of the Marxist Education Project since its inception. He is on the Editorial Board of the Marxist journal Science & Society.

SUMMARY:Monthly Literature Group: 'Tijuana Straits'
DESCRIPTION:Monthly sessions\, on or about the last Saturday of each month \nThe MEP Literature Group continues its summer noir tradition with a dark beach read. Tijuana Straits by Kem Nunn is the story of how an ex-con\, Fahey\, a former champion surfer and now a worm farmer\, finds redemption. After saving a Mexican environmental activist\, Magdalena\, from a wild-dog attack\, he joins her in a confrontation against cartels profiting from toxic dumping in the border region between the United States and Mexico\, polluting not only the Pacific Ocean\, but the shanty towns of maquiladora workers. Nunn’s writing style recalls the cadences of his childhood within an evangelical church and the pacing of successful television script writing. \nReview our previous selections here. \nConvened by Jacqueline Cantwell and the MEP Literature Group. Jacqueline became involved with the MEP’s Literature Group because of her love of Victor Serge’s novels. Participating in an MEP reading group led by Serge translator Richard Greeman eight years ago\, Jacqueline found a community of readers eager to be challenged by the ambitions of international writers devoted to the creative potential of political fiction. Since the death of Michael Lardner\, who hosted and organized the Literature Group for so many years\, Jacqueline has taken the lead in furthering the group’s goals of exploring international fiction and encouraging thoughtful conversation.
