Assessing Strategies for Revolutionary Change:
A Marxist Critique of Anarchism
A discussion of John Molyneux's "Anarchism: A Marxist Criticism"
A Marxist Critique of Anarchism
A discussion of John Molyneux's "Anarchism: A Marxist Criticism"
The rise of the Occupy movement has created a new opening for radical and revolutionary politics. A new generation of young people are coming to anti-capitalist conclusions and are seeking to figure out the meaning of revolution. Debates are emerging among new radicals about the most effective politics and strategies for bringing revolutionary change, as a result Anarchism and Marxism are experiencing a growth in popularity and interests. Though many currents of Anarchism recognize the need for radical change, their understanding of society and how to transform it are insufficient to the task at hand.
Join the UMB ISO for an educational meeting on Assessing Strategies for Revolutionary Change: A Marxist Critique of Anarchism . Those who attend are strongly encouraged to read John Molyneux's article Anarchism: A Marxist Criticism in preparation for the discussion. We will also be discussing how to build our upcoming public forums on Global Revolution: What it is and why we need it and How do we stop the war on Black America coming up later this month.
Proposed Agenda
1) How not to make a revolution: A Marxist Critique of Anarchism (1 hour)
2) Building the District Forum on Global Revolution: What it is a why we need it (25 min)
3) Building our public forum on How do we stop the war on Black America? (25min)
