SUMMARY:Climate\, Class\, and Degrowth
DESCRIPTION:Join the MEP’s Ecosocialist Study Group as we reconvene to consider two new Verso titles that are provoking wide discussion and debate: Matt Huber’s Climate Change as Class War: Building Socialism on a Warming Planet\, and The Future Is Degrowth: A Guide to a World Beyond Capitalism\, by Matthias Schmelzer\, Aaron Vansintjan\, and Andrea Vetter. As one reviewer noted\, “Both take as foundational premises that we must move beyond capitalism to solve the climate crisis\, yet they critique political economy in fundamentally different ways. While The Future is Degrowth argues for abolishing the capitalist growth imperative\, Climate Change as Class War argues against degrowth and advocates for a decommodified Green New Deal.” We will address such questions as: What do advocates of “degrowth” mean by this term? How and why do capitalist growth and accumulation threaten human survival? What are the most useful frameworks to help us organize movements for climate justice? What demands should we prioritize and what lessons can we draw from previous historical movements? How can utopian thinking expand our horizons in what must be a massive fight for a more sustainable future? Where does working-class organizing come into the picture\, and what other allies and social forces can be mobilized? \nTen weekly sessions\, convened by Fred Murphy and Steve Knight\, who have co-led the Ecosocialist Study Group since 2016.

SUMMARY:We Are “Nature” Defending Itself: Entangling Art\, Activism and Autonomous Zones
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT IS POSTPONED. A later date in 2022 will be found.\nby Isabelle Fremeaux and Jay Jordan\nChronicles the story of the ZAD (zone to defend)\, a resistant land occupation emerging out of a decades-long struggle which stopped a new airport project\nIn 2008\, as the storms of the financial crash blew\, Isabelle Fremeaux and Jay Jordan deserted the metropolis and their academic jobs\, traveling across Europe in search of post-capitalist utopias. They wanted their art activism to no longer be uprooted. They arrived at a place French politicians had declared lost to the republic\, otherwise known as the ZAD (the zone to defend): a messy but extraordinary canvas of commoning\, illegally occupying 4\,000 acres of wetlands where an international airport was planned. In 2018\, the 40-year-long struggle snatched an incredible victory\, defeating the airport expansion project through a powerful cocktail that merged creation and resistance. Fremeaux and Jordan blend rich eyewitness accounts with theory\, inspired by a diverse array of approaches\, from neo-animism to revolutionary biology\, insurrectionary writings and radical art history. \nThis event considers one of a number of books from the new Pluto Books Vagabonds series. Published in collaboration with the Journal of Aesthetics & Protest. Further info: https://vagabonds.xyz/wandi/  \nIsabelle Fremeaux is a popular educator and action researcher. She was formerly Senior Lecturer in Media and Cultural Studies at Birkbeck College London. Along with Jay Jordan\, she is a coordinator of The Laboratory of Insurrectionary Imagination. \nJay Jordan is co-founder of Reclaim the Streets (1995-2000) and the Clandestine Insurgent Rebel Clown Army\, and co-author of We Are Everywhere: The Irresistible Rise of Global Anticapitalism (Verso\, 2003) and A User’s Guide to Demanding the Impossible (Minor Compositions\, 2011). He is a coordinator of The Laboratory of Insurrectionary Imagination. \n  \nAll events are sliding scale—choose the level at which you are able to contribute to The Marxist Education Project. We have introduced a $2.50 rate (less than a one way transit fare) for those who want to contribute but have difficulty with all three levels of our sliding scale of $7 to $11. No one is denied admission to any event or class because of an inability to pay. Register with the “Cash at First Session” option if you are not able to pay. \n

SUMMARY:Anitra Nelson and Vincent Liegey: Exploring Degrowth: A Critical Guide
DESCRIPTION:Exploring Degrowth: A Critical Guide\nVincent Liegey and Anitra Nelson\nSpokesperson for the degrowth movement Vincent Liegey (Budapest\, Hungary) and degrowth advocate Anitra Nelson (University of Melbourne\, Australia) talk on the politics\, challenges\, strategies and visions of the burgeoning degrowth movement\, starting in France to spread worldwide. Chaired by Pluto’s FireWorks Series editor\, Gargi Bhattacharyya. \nAs a sense of urgency pervades global environmentalism and the Left\, the degrowth movement burst into the mainstream. In short\, as growth driven climate catastrophe looms\, degrowth is a political response based on changing how we live. Exploring Degrowth: A Critical Guide counters obsessions with growth to demand a slowing of our economies\, reorientation around provision of basic needs for all\, supported by political autonomy and cultures of living within Earth’s limits. \nAs the authors discuss the practices and strategies of the movement\, identifying its strengths and weaknesses\, they examine ‘frugal abundance’\, horizontal democracy\, ‘open relocalisation’\, conviviality and reduced paid work to argue why degrowth is a compelling and realistic project. \nFor an extra discount this ticket includes admission to the presentation\, the book with shipping included (US and Puerto Rico only). \nTickets are sliding scale. We do not deny admission to events or classes for an inability to pay. Please write to info@marxedproject for the url of the zoom link to attend if you cannot afford to pay.
