SUMMARY:Karl Marx in America with Andrew Hartman
DESCRIPTION:A video of this October 26\, 2025\, event is available on the MEP’s YouTube channel. \nHistorian Andrew Hartman introduces his new book\, Karl Marx in America. To read Karl Marx is to contemplate a world created by capitalism. People have long viewed the United States as the quintessential anti-Marxist nation\, but Marx’s ideas have inspired a wide range of people to formulate a more precise sense of the stakes of the American project. Historians have highlighted the imprint made on the United States by Enlightenment thinkers such as Adam Smith\, John Locke\, and Thomas Paine. Marx is rarely considered alongside these figures\, yet his ideas are the most relevant today because of capitalism’s centrality to American life. Karl Marx in America argues that even though Marx never visited America\, the country has been infused\, shaped\, and transformed by him. \nAndrew Hartman is professor of history at Illinois State University. He is the author of Karl Marx in America (2025) and A War for the Soul of America: A History of the Culture Wars (2015)\, both published by the University of Chicago Press\, and Education and the Cold War: The Battle for the American School (2008). He is also the coeditor of American Labyrinth: Intellectual History for Complicated Times (2018). Hartman has been published in a host of academic and popular venues\, including the Washington Post\, The Baffler\, Chronicle of Higher Education\, American Historian\, Journal of American Studies\, Reviews in American History\, Journal of Policy History\, Salon\, Jacobin\, Bookforum\, and In These Times.

SUMMARY:Victor Serge: Unruly Revolutionary\, with Mitchell Abidor
DESCRIPTION:A video of this November 1\, 2025\, event is available on the MEP’s YouTube channel. \nMitchell Abidor\, author of Victor Serge: Unruly Revolutionary presents the book in conversation with Jacob Plitman\, former publisher of Jewish Currents. \nToday\, thanks to his classic memoirs and novels\, Victor Serge is highly esteemed by virtually all segments of the left. But who was this man\, who led such a thrilling life on the frontlines of history? An anarchist? A Bolshevik? A Trotskyist? Or did he evolve into something else entirely? In this comprehensive account of Serge’s life\, work\, and political evolution\, Mitchell Abidor rescues his subject\, in all his complexity\, from the constraints of any single label. Painting a portrait of a man whose political ideas shifted continually in response to the major events of his life\, we are introduced to several Victor Serges: the youthful anarchist in Belgium and France; the leading Bolshevik in Moscow; the anti-Stalinist who faced imprisonment and expulsion from the Soviet Union. Examining the lacunae and errors of fact in his memoirs\, Abidor reveals the hidden Serge for what he ultimately was: an unruly revolutionary of both great courage and contradictions. \nMitchell Abidor is a writer and translator living in Brooklyn\, New York. In addition to his many translation works\, he is the author of May Made Me and I’ll Forget It When I Die!: The Bisbee Deportation of 1917. Abidor is the translator and editor of Victor Serge’s anarchist writings\, Anarchists Never Surrender\, and translated with Richard Greeman Serge’s Notebooks (1936-1947). \nA 30% discount code for Victor Serge and other Pluto Press books by Mitchell Abidor will be provided to all ticket purchasers.
