This workshop brings together academics, theorists and people involved
in social and environmental projects, organisations and activism to
read Marx and Marxists’ work in the context of current controversies,
challenges and alternatives. Through a mutual co-production of
knowledge informed by academic research, open discussion, local
practitioner expertise and public experience, the work of Marx and
Marxists will be read in new ways and shared in new forms with new
audiences, in order to be put to new uses.
All welcome. Please register using Eventbrite link above.
