SUMMARY:Paradoxes of Exchange Society
DESCRIPTION:News from Ideological Antiquity:\nMarx–Eisenstein–Capital\nPart 3. Paradoxes of Exchange Society\na film by Alexander Kluge  \nThe Verso Loft\n20 Jay Street • Suite 1010\nBrooklyn DUMBO / transit: A to High Street\, F to York \n3:00-6:45 pm (200 min)\nwith intermission\nDiscussion to follow \nThe third part\, “Paradoxes of Exchange Society\,” inquires into the social contract that is both presupposed and reproduced in all human exchange. As the title of Kluge’s film indicates\, the exposition of Nachrichten aus der ideologischen Antike (News from Ideological Antiquity) seeks to constitute an antiquity appropriate to today’s challenges. Its strong argument for a return to Marx is best captured by Fredric Jameson: “Marx is neither actual nor outmoded: he is classical.” \n“… important devices should be added: Russian Formalist defamiliarization and Brechtian distancing. Never very far from didactic methods\, Kluge insists: “We must let Till Eulenspiegel [a trickster figure in German folklore] pass across Marx and Eisenstein both\, in order to create confusion allowing knowledge and emotions to be combined together in new ways.”  — Julia Vassilieva\, Screening The Past \nNo one turned away for inability to pay

SUMMARY:Kluge’s News From Ideological Antiquity. Part 2: All Things Are Bewitched People
DESCRIPTION:When Eisenstein had the idea to film Capital\, he thought that the literary methods found in Joyce’s Ulysses would be helpful for his project. According to Fredric Jameson\, what Eisenstein had in mind here is “something like a Marxist version of Freudian free association—the chain of hidden links that leads us from the surface of everyday life and experience to the very sources of production itself. Eisenstein’s idea was use the structure of Ulysses\, a ‘day in the life’ narrative interrupted by stream-of-consciousness\, together with his theories of montage to depict a narrative film version of Capital. ” (See New Left Review\, No 58 for Jameson’s review)\n“… important devices should be added: Russian Formalist defamiliarisation and Brechtian distancing. Never very far from didactic methods\, Kluge insists: “We must let Till Eulenspiegel [a trickster figure in German folklore] pass across Marx and Eisenstein both\, in order to create confusion allowing knowledge and emotions to be combined together in new ways.” — Julia Vassilieva\, Screening The Past\n Kluge’s film is divided into three parts: Part III. Paradoxes of Exchange Society will be scheduled at a future July date.

SUMMARY:Life\, the Universe and Everything
DESCRIPTION:Life\, the Universe and Everything: A Dialectical Guide to the Galaxy\n7 more sessions\nTuesday\, February 7 through March 21\, 7:30 to 9:30 pm\nFacilitated by Alex Steinberg  \nIn this series we will be placing the dialectics of Marx and Engels within a broader philosophical tradition.  \nWe will look at Engels discussion of the fundamental forces of nature: matter\, time\, space and motion in the context of the philosophical conflict between a relational view of the world and a mechanical one. We will also look at the conflict between Newton and Leibniz and the subsequent vindication of the relational view with Mach and Einstein. \nAlso examined will be the contemporary “crisis in physics” — the conclusion to which mechanical reductionism has led both in philosophy and in recent attempts to develop a cosmology that incorporates both relativity theory and quantum theory. Contributions of Hegel\, Engels\, C.S.Peirce\, Einstein\, and contemporary physicist such as Lee Smolin will form the basis for this discussion.  \nThe sessions will conclude by tying the idea of the cosmos as a living system of dynamic evolving complexity to the Notion in Hegel’s Logic and from there to an interpretation of Marx’s Capital that places it firmly within the same Hegelian dialectic that is being developed in contemporary cosmology. \nAlex Steinberg has previously taught a number of courses on Hegel at the New Space. He taught Engels and the Dialectics of Nature at the Brecht Forum. At the Marxist Education Project he has taught Spectres of the Dialectic\, Nietzsche\, Heidegger\, Fascism and the Left Nietzscheans and Dialectics 101 previously\, along with organizing a discussion of recent events in Greece and special events on The Radicalism of James Joyce. He has presented papers at the Left Forum and Historical Materialism Conferences.He has also lectured in Athens Greece on the subjects ranging from dialectics and the American political landscape. Alex has also served on the local and national boards of radio station WBAI.

SUMMARY:The Young Hegelians (1831-1842)
DESCRIPTION:Seminar of the NYC Marxist Hegel-Studies Collective\nMarxist Education Project  \nConducted by Russell Dale \nHegel’s philosophy has had a great influence on much of what has happened in the world since his time (1770-1831) and is crucial to understanding much of modern social thought and philosophy as well as to understanding Marxism and the socialist tradition in its varied aspects. \nHegel himself died in 1831. In Berlin\, where Hegel had taught for nearly a decade-and-a-half up to his death\, a small group of philosophers – the so-called “Young Hegelians” – struggled with questions of interpreting Hegel in terms of the actual conditions of life in Germany and Europe at that time. The questions that this group of philosophers dealt with ranged from questions of re-interpreting religion\, to the nature of the individual\, society\, and the state. Both Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels were involved in the work of the Young Hegelians\, and ultimately it was the rejection of much of the thinking of Hegel and the Young Hegelians that allowed Marx and Engels to formulate what became the general outlook we today think of as Marxism. \nIn this seminar\, we will study various works of the Young Hegelians including David Strauss\, Ludwig Feuerbach\, Bruno Bauer\, Max Stirner\, and others\, and including as well some early writings of Marx and Engels themselves. \nThe philosophy of Hegel as well as numerous of the Young Hegelians also included reactionary\, racist/white-supremacist thought\, which we will give special critical attention to. The rejection of Hegel and the Young Hegelians by Marx and Engels is also in important ways a rejection of the racism and white-supremacy and all that that has historically entailed in the development of contemporary capitalist society. This theme will be of fundamental importance in this class as will be the critique of the system of patriarchy – the oppressive subordination of women to men – the struggle to end such oppressions being fundamental to Marxism. \nThe course will run for 14 weeks on Friday evenings from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM starting September 16\, 2016 and continuing until December 16\, 2016. We will be reading the book The Young Hegelians: An Anthology\, edited by Lawrence S. Stepelevich. (Arrangements will be made for students who cannot buy a copy of this book which costs about $12 online in a Kindle edition\, or from about $25 and up for a used copy on abe.com or elsewhere.) \nRussell Dale is an activist and a philosopher. He teaches philosophy at Lehman College\, CUNY. He taught classes on Hegel and various other topics for the last six years. Russell is also on the Manuscript Collective and Editorial Board of the Marxist journal Science & Society\, as well as on the Local Station Board of radio station WBAI\, 99.5 FM (wbai.org).

SUMMARY:Day 3\, Session 3: Prometheus in Ruins? Uses and Abuses of the Hero Who Stole Fire
DESCRIPTION:A presentation and discussion with Anthony Galluzzo\nMechanical Prometheanism was for long the signature myth of Western modernization. Both capitalists and socialists embraced the Greek myth of Prometheus’s theft of fire from the gods as shorthand for Progress — technological determinism and human domination of the natural world — while neglecting the ethico-political dimensions of the myth. Prometheanism achieved its apotheosis during the twentieth century\, when futurism and productivism shaped capitalism and state socialism alike. Today the taste for such techno-scientific drive to mastery has waned\, at least among many Marxists and ecosocialists coming to grips with the environmental costs of industrial modernization. But as planetary civilization and the planet itself confront ecological collapse\, techno-utopianism is making a come-back\, from the cyber-libertarian solutionists of Silicon Valley to the ostensibly left accelerationists who seek to revive Prometheus — without ever asking which Prometheus they want to revive. This talk will trace the history of Promethean ideology\, beginning with the Godwin/Malthus debates of the 1790s\, through its current revival within certain precincts of the left\, particularly as it intersects with the ecological crisis and Anthropocene theory today. We will contrast this to alternative Prometheanisms\, from the Shelleys through Marx to present-day ecosocialist currents. \nAnthony Galluzzo is a lecturer at NYU. He studies radical transatlantic literary culture of the 1790s and its afterlives in socialism\, utopian fiction\, and the gothic novel. He has contributed several articles to Jacobin and other journals. His home base is in Brooklyn\, where he grew up.

Now there are workers from all parts of the globe working for the same set of bosses. \nCapitalists continually seek new avenues to expand their capital and commodify all that exists. The digital revolution has sped all this up\, quickening accumulation which lays the basis for more frequent crises. Capital continues in ever new forms the process of enclosures that began with the forcible removal of the peasantry from the land in medieval Europe. Throughout the global south\, displaced peasants are forced to migrate to cities or internationally\, working in factories or informal economies. Many others are conscripted into comprador armies to protect the extractive industries ravaging their regions. There is also outright robbery: the Panama Papers reveal the extent to which capital has fleeced the global proletariat. After more than three decades of assault on organized labor\, privatization\, austerity and structural adjustment have gutted hard-won social programs. Automation\, digitization and strategic relocation of work\, combined with just-in-time assembly\, make millions “redundant”. At the same time Walmartization\, Uberization\, Amazonification exemplify our marginalization and precarity. \nAs we plan this intensive\, workers and students are in motion throughout France\, from Nuit Debout gatherings to general strikes against austerity.  Greek workers\, hit harder still by austerity\, are reaching out to support the tide of refugees. The contract just won by the Verizon workers in the U.S. after a nation-wide strike represents a major victory. The Sanders campaign has helped normalize the concept of socialism\, but the Left and social movements have not figured out how to articulate a viable socialist alternative and build a corresponding movement. \nOver the four days of this Intensive\, we will study the causes behind these developments\, learn about some obstacles to organizing and the challenges facing workers at work and in their communities\, and consider various left analyses about social realities and the prospects for organizing. We will assess the lessons of workers’ movements globally and historically\, with emphasis on prospects in the US and the global south. Through collaborative study and discussion\, we aim to provide a challenging learning environment so each participant can develop his/her own theoretical and analytic tools to advance our organizing and movement building work in order to broaden opposition to capital locally\, nationally and internationally. \nFRIDAY\, JULY 15 / 10:00 am • Imperialism Today: Super-Exploitation & Marxist Theory • WALTER DAUM • 1:00- 4:00 pm • Class Consciousness\, Class Struggle & Self-Organizing Using Image Theater • presented by The Theater of the Oppressed Laboratory (TOPLAB) • facilitated by JANET GERSON • MARIE-CLAIRE PICHER • 5:30 pm • Public Banking: A Marxist Response to Finance Capital  • DAN KARAN • 7:30 pm • Southern Insurgency: Mass Movements Throughout the Global South • LISA MAYA KNAUER \nSATURDAY\, JULY 16 / 10:00 am • Slackers\, Sabotage\, & Syndicalism: American Labor History & The Refusal of Work • KRISTIN LAWLER  • 1:00  pm • Beyond Bernie: The Crisis of Labor & The Left in the United States • MARK DUDZIC • 3:30 pm • Prometheus in Ruins?: Uses & Abuses of the Hero Who Stole Fire • ANTHONY GALLUZZO • 5:30 pm • Logistics\, Capitalist Circulation\, Chokepoints • CHARMAINE CHUA • 7:30 pm • Devils & Dust: Resisting War in New York\, the Pacific\, & the Middle East • CLAUDE COPELAND • LAUREL MEI-SINGH • YUKO TONOHIRA \nSUNDAY\, JULY 17 / 11:00 am • It’s Not Over: Lessons for Socialists from the October Revolution\, Prague Spring and the Sandinistas • PETE DOLACK • 1:00 pm • Labor in the Global Digital Economy • URSULA HUWS • 3:30 pm • Sexuality\, Gender & Neoliberal Capitalism • KATE DOYLE-GRIFFITHS • LISA MAYA KNAUER  • 5:30 pm • Approaching Science from the Left: Uses & Abuses of Knowledge in the Planetary Crisis • REBECCA BOGER • STUART NEWMAN • DAVE SCHWARTZMAN • moderated by FRED MURPHY \nAs capitalist relations penetrate every nook and cranny of our planet and the most intimate realms of our lives\, a growing proportion of the world’s population is incorporated into the global proletariat—paid and unpaid workers and our families\, the unemployed and underemployed\, and the growing numbers who will never work.

SUMMARY:Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit
DESCRIPTION:14 week course\nSeminar of the NYC Marxist Hegel-Studies Collective\nSpring and Summer\, 2016\nConducted by Russell Dale\n\nHegel’s philosophy has had a great influence on much of what has happened in the world since his time (1770 – 1831) and is crucial to understanding much of modern social thought and philosophy as well as to understanding Marxism and the socialist tradition in its varied aspects. \nHegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit is generally considered the first exposition of and an introduction to Hegel’s later work\, what is often referred to as Hegel’s “system.” Thus\, knowledge of the Phenomenology is indispensable for anyone interested in today’s world. \nAt the same time\, the Phenomenology is an extremely difficult work to read\, so it really helps to do so with a group of fellow-readers. \nIn this course\, we will read the entire Phenomenology of Spirit. Discussion will focus on Hegel’s view of history\, the history of philosophy\, subjectivity\, the self\, and society\, and Hegel’s influence on later thinking and history. An important part of our discussion will be the socially reactionary conclusions that Hegel ultimately drew\, while at the same time HHegel’s work became inspirational for so many radical and progressive thinkers as well\, including Marx and Engels. We will give special attention to and treatment of the fact that Hegel had white-supremacist\, racist views\, and played an important role in the development of the pseudo-science of biological race theory. We will look at what these views mean for the tradition of thought that stems from Hegel\, which includes some of the greatest thinkers of African descent in the twentieth century\, such as W. E. B. DuBois\, C. L. R. James\, Frantz Fanon and others. \nThe course will run for 14 weeks on Friday evenings from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM starting on Friday\, May 27\, 2016 and continuing until Friday\, August 26\, 2016. We will be reading the edition of Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit translated by A. V. Miller\, and published by Oxford University Press.  (Arrangements will be made for students who cannot buy a copy of this book\, which costs about $11 – $15 online.)  \nRussell Dale is an activist and a philosopher. He teaches philosophy at Lehman College\, CUNY. He taught classes on Hegel and various other topics for the last six years. Russell is also on the Manuscript Collective and Editorial Board of the Marxist journal Science & Society\, as well as on the Local Station Board of radio station WBAI\, 99.5 FM (wbai.org).

SUMMARY:Spectres of the Dialectic from the Big Bang  to the Multiverse: Explorations with  Hegel\, Marx & Engels on the Philosophy of Nature
DESCRIPTION:Explorations with Hegel\, Marx & Engels on the Philosophy of Nature \nThrough writings\, videos\, and other media we will engage in issues in modern physics and biology that get to the core of the current crisis in science and take us beyond the limitations of the mechanical picture of the world we have inherited. \nThis class will be a deep engagement in fundamental philosophical and scientific questions concerning space\, time\, matter\, motion\, entropy\, evolution and origins. We will be engaged in readings and presentations in philosophy as well as biological and physical science. Debates in contemporary physics and biology will be highlighted for their implications for a dialectical philosophy of nature. No prior background is required. \nAlex Steinberg taught Engels and the Dialectics of Nature at the Brecht Forum in the Spring of 2014. He has previously given classes on Hegel and Marxist philosophy and been a presenter at the Left Forum. He has also served on the local and national boards of radio station WBAI. \nSuggested tuition: $95 / $125 • No one turned away for inability to pay

SUMMARY:The Long French Revolution in Literature and Life: 1789-1871
DESCRIPTION:For Marxist and democratic historians\, France remains the ‘model’ country for the analysis of class struggles and political revolutions\, which overthrew the established order in 1789\, 1830\, 1848 and 1871 (and profoundly threatened the bourgeois order again in 1968). We will examine these successive revolutions chronologically through the eyes of both radical historians and novelists. \nWhen considering the Sans Culottes and the French Revolution we will look at this first great revolution from the point of view\, not of the “great men” who led it\, but of the popular classes that made it and tried to ensure that it met the needs of the French people. Their role on the great events — the taking of the Bastille\, the September \nMassacres among others — will be examined using Kropotkin’s The Great French Revolution as the source text\, as well as excerpts from the soon to be published translation of Jean Jaures’ A Socialist History of the French Revolution. The French Revolution was the first popular uprising to run out of steam and regress\, and we will read Anatole France’s novel The Gods are Thirsty to examine these phenomena. \nWe will then read novels by Stendhal\, Balzac and others while concurrently reading Marx’s major writings on France\, Class Struggles in France\, The 18th Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte and The Civil War in France. Other contemporary accounts of the revolutionary waves of France in the 19th century will be consulted. \nMITCH ABIDOR is the translator of several books\, including the forthcoming edition of Jean Jaures’ A Socialist History of the French Revolution and Emmanuel Bove’s novella A Raskolonikov and the author of Communards: The Paris Commune of 1871 as Told by Those Who Fought for It. \nCRAIG CHISHOLM is a poet and editor at Gigantic Sequins. He has been a key participant in ongoing workshops on the relationship of literature to revolutionary movements and has just completed a summer of reviewing literary works as they related to World War I. \nRICHARD GREEMAN is a Marxist scholar long active in environmental and labor struggles\, splits his time between France and New York City. He is best known for his studies and translations of the novelist and revolutionary Victor Serge (1890–1947). \nSuggested tuition: $95 / $125 • No one turned away for inability to pay

SUMMARY:Capital: A Critique of Political Economy by Karl Marx  Volume 1
DESCRIPTION: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. In this way\, Capital offers the reader a methodology for doing our own analysis of current developments. \nOn top of that\, many (though not all) sections of Volume I are surprisingly accessible and beautifully written. The class will aim to cover major sections of Volume I by the holiday break\, with its pace to be determined by participants’ needs\, and may continue after that to finish Volume I. Along with our own intensive reading of the text\, we’ll use new on-line and visual aids and current articles that illustrate capitalism’s developmental tendencies or what Marx calls its laws of motion. Participants will be encouraged to be as active as they desire through reports and presentations. \nJuliet Ucelli has taught Capital at the New York Marxist School and labor economics for labor unions\, as well as adult basic education and GED preparation. Currently a high school social worker\, she has written on Eurocentrism in Marxist theory\, the politics of inner city public schooling and other topics.  \nHer “Introduction to Capital\, Volume I” can be accessed at http://thecommonsbrooklyn.org/intensive-readings-2014. \nSuggested donation: $95 to $125\nNo one turned away for inability to pay
