Please join us next Thursday for the following lecture of Dr Herbert
Pimlott: Inspired by the cultural materialism of Raymond Williams,
Pimlott will assess Stuart Hall’s role as a socialist public
intellectual via his collaboration with Marxism Today. Analysing the
material processes of production and distribution, the lecture will lay
out the contribution to the battle of socialist ideas during the 1980s.
The presentation draws from the forthcoming book: Wars of Position?
Marxism Today, Cultural Politics and the Remaking of the Left Press,
1979-90 (Historical Materialism Book Series).
