WHAT

.
Recently, a series of exchanges between the Communist Party of Great Britain (PCC), the International Bolshevik Tendency, and the Platypus Affiliated Society has unfolded, mapping a field of positions and historical perspectives whose contours trace some of the most provocative contemporary perspectives on Marxism, socialism, and democracy.

With this public forum, speakers will take stock of the points of convergence and divergence that have emerged in order to push the conversation further on key issues such as Left unity, neo-Kautskyism, factionalism, Trotskyism, sectarianism, Leninism and Bolshevism, democratic organization, and political program.

April 18, 2013
7:00-9:00pm

WHERE

.
NYU Kimmel Center, Room 904
60 Washington Square South
New York, New York 10012

WHY

.
For the self-criticism, self-education, and, ultimately,
the practical reconstitution of a Marxian Left.
