SUMMARY:Victor Serge: Unruly Revolutionary\, with Mitchell Abidor
DESCRIPTION:A video of this November 1\, 2025\, event is available on the MEP’s YouTube channel. \nMitchell Abidor\, author of Victor Serge: Unruly Revolutionary presents the book in conversation with Jacob Plitman\, former publisher of Jewish Currents. \nToday\, thanks to his classic memoirs and novels\, Victor Serge is highly esteemed by virtually all segments of the left. But who was this man\, who led such a thrilling life on the frontlines of history? An anarchist? A Bolshevik? A Trotskyist? Or did he evolve into something else entirely? In this comprehensive account of Serge’s life\, work\, and political evolution\, Mitchell Abidor rescues his subject\, in all his complexity\, from the constraints of any single label. Painting a portrait of a man whose political ideas shifted continually in response to the major events of his life\, we are introduced to several Victor Serges: the youthful anarchist in Belgium and France; the leading Bolshevik in Moscow; the anti-Stalinist who faced imprisonment and expulsion from the Soviet Union. Examining the lacunae and errors of fact in his memoirs\, Abidor reveals the hidden Serge for what he ultimately was: an unruly revolutionary of both great courage and contradictions. \nMitchell Abidor is a writer and translator living in Brooklyn\, New York. In addition to his many translation works\, he is the author of May Made Me and I’ll Forget It When I Die!: The Bisbee Deportation of 1917. Abidor is the translator and editor of Victor Serge’s anarchist writings\, Anarchists Never Surrender\, and translated with Richard Greeman Serge’s Notebooks (1936-1947). \nA 30% discount code for Victor Serge and other Pluto Press books by Mitchell Abidor will be provided to all ticket purchasers.

SUMMARY:'The Late Marx's Revolutionary Roads' with author Kevin Anderson
DESCRIPTION:A video of this March 29\, 2025\, event is available on the MEP’s YouTube channel. \nKevin B. Anderson presents his newly published book\, The Late Marx’s Revolutionary Roads\, based on systematic analysis of Karl Marx’s “Ethnological Notebooks” and related Marx texts from his final years\, 1869-1883. \nIn these writings\, Marx traveled beyond the boundaries of capital and class in the Western European and North American contexts\, turning his attention to colonialism\, agrarian Russia and India\, Indigenous societies\, and gender. Anderson’s book focuses on how the late Marx sees a wider revolution that included the European proletariat but would be touched off by revolts by oppressed ethno-racial groups\, peasant communes\, and Indigenous communist groups\, in many of which women held great social power. As Anderson shows\, the late Marx elaborated a truly global\, multilinear theory of modern society and its revolutionary possibilities that continues to speak to us today. \nThe Late Marx’s Revolutionary Roads: Colonialism\, Gender\, and Indigenous Communism is available from Verso and from other online booksellers. \nKevin B. Anderson teaches at University of California\, Santa Barbara. He has been a scholar-activist since the 1970s\, working in social and political theory\, especially Marx\, Hegel\, Lenin\, Luxemburg\, Marxist humanism\, and the Frankfurt School. Among his numerous books are Lenin\, Hegel\, and Western Marxism (1995)\, Foucault and the Iranian Revolution: Gender and the Seductions of Islamism (with Janet Afary\, 2005)\, and Marx at the Margins: On Nationalism\, Ethnicity and Non-Western Societies (2010/2016). He is is the coeditor\, with Peter Hudis\, of the Rosa Luxemburg Reader. He writes regularly for New Politics\, The International Marxist-Humanist\, LA Progressive\, and Jacobin.

SUMMARY:Global Political Struggles of the Working Class
DESCRIPTION:The Double Consciousness of Capital with author DAVID HARVEY\nSocial Sources of Political Polarization in Russia with authors ILYA MATVEEV and OLEG ZHURAVLEV\nThe Far Right\, Corporate Power\, and Social Struggles in Brazil with authors VIRGINIA FONTES\, ANA GARCIA and REJANE HOEVELER\nIn “The Double Consciousness of Capital”. DAVID HARVEY turns to Marx’s Grundrisse and to W.E.B.Du Bois’ idea of  double consciousness\, to locate a tension in anti-capitalist politics between the possibilities found in the creative destruction and technological revolutions of capitalism and the alienation and loss of human potentiality which is a result of the same process. The path to socialism requires navigating the contradictions of this double consciousness. \nIn “Social Sources of Political Polarization in Russia”. ILYA MATVEEV and OLEG ZHURAVLEV offer a compelling account of rising urban-rural and core-periphery polarization in Russia under the authoritarian nationalism of Vladimir Putin\, which until recently was able to rely on the apathetic indifference of the people and general appeals to social stability to maintain unchallenged power. \nIn “The Far Right\, Corporate Power\, and Social Struggles in Brazil”. VIRGINA FONTES\, ANA GARCIA\, and REJANE HOEVELER contrast the fictitious polarization in Brazil between electoral oppositions that quarrel over cultural issues without challenging the hegemony of neoliberal capitalism and the real polarization resulting from a combative working class that is developing\, as Gramsci says\, a spirit of cleavage\, determined to pursue its class interests. \nDAVID HARVEY is Distinguished Professor of anthropology and geography at the City University of New York. ILYA MATVEEV teaches politics at the Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration\, St. Petersburg; OLEG ZHURAVLEV is a researcher at the Public Sociology Laboratory\, Center for Independent Social Research\, St. Petersburg. VIRGINIA FONTES is professor of history at Fluminense Federal University\, Rio de Janeiro State\, and a teacher at the Florestan Fernandes National School of the Landless Workers Movement; ANA GARCIA is assistant professor at the International Relations Institute of the Pontifical Catholic University and the graduate program in Social Sciences at the Federal Rural University\, both in Rio de Janeiro; REJANE HOEVELER is a lecturer in the School of Social Service at Fluminense Federal University. \nSocialist Register #58 is available for $28 including shipping via US Media Mail (this offer is only good for the US and Puerto Rico). In Canada Socialist Register is available from Fernwood Books and in Europe from The Merlin Press. \nAll events are sliding scale—choose the level at which you are able to contribute to The Marxist Education Project.
