Capitalism: Causes, Conditions, Consequences … and Beyond
Capitalism: Causes, Conditions, Consequences … and Beyond
Join us for a close reading of Capitalism: A Conversation in Critical Theory which shows how different historical regimes of capitalism have relied on institutional separations between economy and polity, production and social reproduction, and human and non-human nature.

Capital, Volume 1
Capital, Volume 1
Karl Marx’s Capital remains the fundamental text for understanding how capitalism works. By unraveling the commoditized forms of our interactions with nature and each other, it provides tools to understand capitalism’s astounding innovativeness and productivity, intertwined with growing inequality and misery, alienation, stunting of human potential, and ecological destruction all over the globe.

A surreal meal will be the last part of this event.
