SUMMARY:Capitalism and Robbery: The Planetary Mine
DESCRIPTION:Convened by Fred Murphy and Gerardo Rénique\nThis eight-week study group will consider how capitalism is rooted in robbery—of the earth\, of the water\, air\, and soil of communities\, of the livelihoods of working people. Such theft is becoming more massive in scale and more technologically sophisticated\, but is also evoking new forms of popular resistance – as we will read in Martín Arboleda’s innovative new contribution to international political economy\, Planetary Mine: Territories of Extraction under Late Capitalism. \nI see the mountains fall\, the terrain open up in angry dark cavities\, the desert\, the temporary shacks. The mineral is fired and beaten and handled to become military ingots\, battalions of merchandise. The ships depart. Wherever the copper arrives\, as utensil or wire\, no one who touches it sees the rugged solitudes of Chile\, or the small houses at the edge of the desert … —Pablo Neruda\, Ode to Copper \nOnline participation by Zoom teleconferencing can be arranged. \nFRED MURPHY has led numerous study groups at the Marxist Education Project since 2015. He studied and taught Latin American history at the New School for Social Research. In the 1980s he traveled in Latin America as a journalist for several socialist publications. \nGERARDO RÉNIQUE teaches history at the City College of the City University of New York. He is a frequent contributor to Socialism and Democracy and NACLA: Report on the Americas. His research interests include the political traditions of popular movements in Latin America\, and race\, national identity and state formation in Mexico. \nContributions:\nClassroom attendance\, sliding scale: $65 / $80 / $95\nRemote participation via Zoom\, sliding scale: $40 / $50 / $60\nNo one is denied participation for lack of ability to pay

SUMMARY:Capital\, Energy and Power
DESCRIPTION:A 10-week Study Group with Fred Murphy and Steve Knight \nThroughout the history of capitalism\, energy sources and especially fossil fuels—coal\, oil and natural gas—have been critical to the system’s economic viability. The crises associated with climate change are rooted in capital’s insatiable need to burn fuels in order to accumulate wealth and maximize profits.  Competition and greed for readily extractable energy resources have fueled wars and evoked popular resistance\, especially in the Middle East. This study group will explore the history and political economy of oil\, energy and capitalism. We will read George Caffentzis’s recently published No Blood for Oil! and related work by Michael Klare\, Andreas Malm\, Timothy Mitchell\, and others. \nFRED MURPHY has co-led several MEP study groups on Marxism\, science\, nature\,  and ecosocialism. He studied and taught historical sociology at the New School for Social Research.  \nSTEVE KNIGHT has been a co-leader of MEP eco-socialist study groups since 2015.  He is also a climate activist with the DSA and faith-centered groups\, and reviews books on eco-socialism for Marx & Philosophy

SUMMARY:Capital\, Energy and Power
DESCRIPTION:A 10-week Study Group with Fred Murphy and Steve Knight \nThroughout the history of capitalism\, energy sources and especially fossil fuels—coal\, oil and natural gas—have been critical to the system’s economic viability. The crises associated with climate change are rooted in capital’s insatiable need to burn fuels in order to accumulate wealth and maximize profits.  Competition and greed for readily extractable energy resources have fueled wars and evoked popular resistance\, especially in the Middle East. This study group will explore the history and political economy of oil\, energy and capitalism. We will read George Caffentzis’s recently published No Blood for Oil! and related work by Michael Klare\, Andreas Malm\, Timothy Mitchell\, and others. \nFRED MURPHY has co-led several MEP study groups on Marxism\, science\, nature\,  and ecosocialism. He studied and taught historical sociology at the New School for Social Research.  \nSTEVE KNIGHT has been a co-leader of MEP eco-socialist study groups since 2015.  He is also a climate activist with the DSA and faith-centered groups\, and reviews books on eco-socialism for Marx & Philosophy

SUMMARY:Ecological Imperialism\, Settler Colonialism & Indigenous Resistance
DESCRIPTION:A 10-Week Study Group led by Fred Murphy and Gerardo Renique\nFebruary 8 – April 12\, 2017\n9 Sessions Remain \nThe inspiring struggle at Standing Rock has united Native Americans across many tribes and countries against the Dakota Access Pipeline\, in defense of water and life and for territorial sovereignty. Throughout the Americas\, land grabs for massive energy and extractive projects are calling forth similar resistance from indigenous peoples\, local farmers\, and allies among urban working people. This study group will use materials from the #StandingRockSyllabus and other readings to deepen our understanding of ecological imperialism\, settler colonialism\, and indigenous resistance in both North and South America. We will also critically examine the varied approaches that Marxists have taken toward these questions.  \nFred Murphy studied and taught historical sociology at The New School and has traveled extensively in Latin America as a journalist. He is currently translating the memoirs of Hugo Blanco\, a leader and activist in Peru’s peasant\, indigenous and environmental movements since the 1950s. \nGerardo Renique teaches history at the City College of the City University of New York is a frequent contributor to Socialism and Democracy and NACLA: Report on the Americas. His research looks at the political traditions of popular movements in Latin America; race\, national identity and state formation in Mexico.
