While we may practice one tactic or action\, we do not chose yours. As participants we agree to leave the policing of tactics to our oppressors\, not our comrades\; we will not attack each other for using methods that are not our own. Through a diversity of tactics we are stronger and more cohesive towards our goal of giving Capitalism a massive coronary.

DESCRIPTION:The economic crisis\, as many commentators and critics are quick to point out\, has rekindled interest in-and anxieties over-Marxism. Although many on the Left hope this renewed curiosity marks the beginning of a radical turn\, similar revivals of anti-capitalist politics in the 1930s\, 1960s\, and 1990s failed to achieve the revolutionary transformations they sought.
Has Marxism returned as a significant political force? How might this translate into the possibility for a revitalized Left? Will the resurgence of Marxist theory provide opportunities for social change-or merely the opportunity to fail again?
Join us for a provocative and thoroughgoing discussion of these and other questions.
This event is free and open to the public.
