Ep 240: Our Social Hell w/ William Clare Roberts
🕑 Added 2024-02-28 11:00:05 +0000 UTCSean is joined by political theorist William Roberts to discuss his excellent 2017 book, Marx's Inferno: The Political Theory of Capital which excavates not just Marx's use of the structure of Dante's Inferno but the radical political theory that undergirds it. What is the relationship between the analysis in Capital and the debates within the workers movement of the time typified by the likes of Proudhon, Saint-Simon and Owens? What is the place of radical republicanism in Marx's theory? How has this tradition in the workers movement been buried by history and what might we do with it today?
