SUMMARY:Chile's 9/11: Fifty Years of Literary Resistance
DESCRIPTION:September 2023 marks fifty years since the overthrow of Salvador Allende’s socialist government on September 11\, 1973. To honor the struggles and sufferings of the Chilean people\, the MEP’s Literature Group dedicates two eight-week series to Chilean writers active before\, during\, and since the Pinochet dictatorship. In addition to the justly well-known writings of Roberto Bolaño\, many of our readings will be from translations by Megan McDowell. McDowell has worked with US and British independent publishers to promote a diverse group of writers largely unfamiliar to American audiences. Our aim\, to quote McDowell\, is “to expand our circles of empathy.” \nFull book descriptions and a reading schedule are available here. \nConvened by Jacqueline Cantwell\, who 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 seven 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\, she has taken the lead in furthering the group’s goals of exploring international fiction and encouraging thoughtful conversation.

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.

SUMMARY:Reading Marx in the Anthropocene
DESCRIPTION:An eight-week reading group centered on Kohei Saito’s newly published Marx in the Anthropocene: Toward the Idea of Degrowth Communism\, with side glances at Saito’s critics and further elaborations of the notion of “degrowth communism.” Saito’s book\, says Gareth Dale\, offers us “the next step in a transformation of our understanding of ‘Marx’s ecology.’ For his Marx\, human society arises from nature: it is simultaneously of it and against it\, in that humans are conscious of their relationship to nature and consciously shape it\, in a relationship that develops historically. The term that captures this is metabolism\, referring to humanity’s interaction with nature through social labor—a relationship that becomes increasingly riven the more it is subsumed under capital.” Through a close examination of Marx’s unpublished notes on natural science and anthropology from the 1870s\, Saito uncovers Marx’s late recognition that the productive forces “do not automatically prepare the material foundation for new post-capitalist society but rather exacerbate the robbery of nature.” Thus he presents us with a Marx who in his final years was effectively advocating “degrowth communism.” \nFacilitated by Fred Murphy\, who has led numerous MEP study groups on Marxism\, ecosocialism\, science and technology\, and Latin American history and politics.

SUMMARY:Political Writings of Marx and Engels III
DESCRIPTION:This group is reading and discussing original texts by Marx and Engels about their theory of class struggles as the motive force of human social evolution and the modern working class as the political antagonist of the capitalist system. This third and final series takes up articles on India\, China\, and European colonialism; essays on the Civil War in the United States; documents related to the International Workingmen’s Association; Marx’s classic The Civil War in France and related essays; polemics against Bakunin; and Marx’s correspondence about the rise of the workers’ political party in Germany\, including his Critique of the Gotha Program. \nAll readings are available in the Verso Press anthology Karl Marx: The Political Writings. These writings are also available from many other sources in book form and online. \nModerated by David Worley\, a member of the executive committee of the Marxist Education Project and a longtime associate of The Brecht Forum\, where he served a term as co-chair of the Board of Directors. David is a nonsectarian socialist\, active since the 1960s in support of a wide range of peace and social justice causes.

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.

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.

SUMMARY:Reading Marx in the Anthropocene
DESCRIPTION:An eight-week reading group centered on Kohei Saito’s newly published Marx in the Anthropocene: Toward the Idea of Degrowth Communism\, with side glances at Saito’s critics and further elaborations of the notion of “degrowth communism.” Saito’s book\, says Gareth Dale\, offers us “the next step in a transformation of our understanding of ‘Marx’s ecology.’ For his Marx\, human society arises from nature: it is simultaneously of it and against it\, in that humans are conscious of their relationship to nature and consciously shape it\, in a relationship that develops historically. The term that captures this is metabolism\, referring to humanity’s interaction with nature through social labor—a relationship that becomes increasingly riven the more it is subsumed under capital.” Through a close examination of Marx’s unpublished notes on natural science and anthropology from the 1870s\, Saito uncovers Marx’s late recognition that the productive forces “do not automatically prepare the material foundation for new post-capitalist society but rather exacerbate the robbery of nature.” Thus he presents us with a Marx who in his final years was effectively advocating “degrowth communism.” \nFacilitated by Fred Murphy\, who has led numerous MEP study groups on Marxism\, ecosocialism\, science and technology\, and Latin American history and politics.
