SUMMARY:The Last Years of Karl Marx: A new reading group
DESCRIPTION:An Intellectual Biography by Marcello Musto\nan eight-week reading and discussion group with The Capital Studies Group of The MEP \nIn the last years of his life\, Karl Marx expanded his research in new directions—studying recent anthropological discoveries\, analyzing communal forms of ownership in pre-capitalist societies\, supporting the populist movement in Russia\, and expressing critiques of colonial oppression in India\, Ireland\, Algeria\, and Egypt. Between 1881 and 1883\, he also traveled beyond Europe for the first and only time. Focusing on these last years of Marx’s life\, this book dispels two key misrepresentations of his work: that Marx ceased to write late in life\, and that he was a Eurocentric and economic thinker fixated on class conflict alone. \nWith The Last Years of Karl Marx\, Marcello Musto claims a renewed relevance for the late work of Marx\, highlighting unpublished or previously neglected writings\, many of which remain unavailable in English. Readers are invited to reconsider Marx’s critique of European colonialism\, his ideas on non-Western societies\, and his theories on the possibility of revolution in non-capitalist countries. From Marx’s late manuscripts\, notebooks\, and letters emerge an author markedly different from the one represented by many of his contemporary critics and followers alike. \nMARCELLO MUSTO is Associate Professor of Sociology at York University. His most recent books are Another Marx: Early Manuscripts to the International (2018) and\, as editor\, The Marx Revival: Key Concepts and New Critical Interpretations (2020). \nAll events and classes at The MEP are sliding scale. In addition\, no one is every denied participation because of inability to pay. If you are unable to contribute to offset our costs at this time\, please write to info@marxedproject to receive codes for entrance to this session or any other activity you would like to attend. \nThe special book and class offers are for US and Puerto Rico only as the books are sent via Media Mail with the US Post Office.

SUMMARY:Melancholia Africana
DESCRIPTION:The Caribbean Philosophy Association and The Marxist Education Project present \nMelancholia Africana: The Indispensable Overcoming of the Black Condition\nWith author Nathalie Etoke and conversation with fellow panelists Lewis R. Gordon and Souleymane Bachir Diagne\nThis year marks the publication of the English translation of Nathalie Etoke’s Melancholia Africana: The Indispensable Overcoming of the Black Condition. In richly poetic prose Etoke considers pain singing the happiness to come\, memories of forgetting\, and on va faire comment? She argues that Africana melancholy is distinct. Rooted in collective and historical experiences of enslavement\, colonization\, and neocolonialism marked by loss of land\, freedom\, language\, culture\, and self. Put differently\, expropriation of labor and of land also annihilated age-old cycles of life. Considering what to do in the wake of such annihilation\, Etoke explores how diasporic Africans reconcile that which has been destroyed with what is newly introduced\, framing this inherent tension as the character of Africana historical becoming. On October 30th\, Etoke will read from and speak about her newly translated work while Lewis R. Gordon\, who authored its new foreword\, and Souleymane Bachir Diagne will address the continued relevance of its searching diagnoses. \nNathalie Etoke is Associate Professor of Francophone and Africana Studies at the Graduate Center\, CUNY. Her articles have appeared in Research in African Literatures\, French Politics and Culture\, Nouvelles Études Francophones\, Présence Francophone\, International Journal of Francophone Studies\, and Journal of French and Francophone Philosophy. She is the author of L’Écriture du corps féminin dans la littérature de l’Afrique francophone au sud du Sahara and of Melancholia Africana l’indispensable dépassement de la condition noire\, which won the 2012 Frantz Fanon Prize from the Caribbean Philosophical Association. In 2011\, she directed Afro Diasporic French Identities\, a documentary on race\, identity and citizenship in contemporary France. \nLewis R. Gordon co-edits Rowman & Littlefield International’s Global Critical Caribbean Thought series.  He is Professor of Philosophy at UCONN-Storrs; Honorary President of the Global Center for Advanced Studies; the 2018–2019 Boaventura de Sousa Santos Chair in Faculty of Economics of the University of Coimbra\, Portugal; and Chair of Global Collaborations for the Caribbean Philosophical Association.  His public Facebook page is: https://www.facebook.com/LewisGordonPhilosopher/ and he is on Twitter @lewgord. \nSouleymane Bachir Diagne is Professor and Chair of French and Romance Philology at Columbia University and recipient of the Edouard Glissant Prize. He is the author of Boole\, l’oiseau de nuit en plein jour (a book on Boolean algebra); Islam and the Open Society: Fidelity and Movement in the Philosophy of Muhammad Iqbal; African Art as Philosophy: Senghor\, Bergson\, and the Idea of Negritude; The Ink of the Scholars: Reflections on Philosophy in Africa; and Open to Reason: Muslim Philosophers in Conversation with Western Tradition. An English version of his book\, Bergson postcolonial: L’élan vital dans la pensée de Senghor et de Mohamed Iqbal\, which was awarded the Dagnan-Bouveret prize by the French Academy of Moral and Political Sciences for 2011\, is forthcoming with Fordham University Press. \nAll tickets are sliding scale
