  • marx2019. The Battle of Climate Change and the Death of Capitalism – “Because there is no Alternative!”

  • Bereits zum dritten Mal organisiert das Centre for Marxist Social Studies – mit der Unterstützung von transform! europe und anderen Organisationen – diese internationale Konferenz. Die Veranstaltung kreist um die Frage, wie marxistische Theorien unser Verständnis der unmittelbaren Gegenwart sowie zukünftiger Entwicklungen vertiefen kann.

    Die beiden vorangehenden Marx-Konferenzen in Stockholm 2013 und 2016 verliefen sehr erfolgreich; mit mehr als 2.000 Teilnehmer_innen und Mitwirkenden, darunter John Bellamy und Michael Heinrich.

    Im Zuge der Marx-Konferenz 2019 möchten wir uns noch weiter mit Strategien beschäftigen, die uns dabei helfen können, die aktuellen gesellschaftlichen Eigentumsverhältnisse hinter uns zu lassen und uns besonders darauf konzentrieren, wie wir die Klimakatastrophe abwenden können, die vom kapitalistischen System befeuert wird. Die marxistische Perspektive versucht einen politischen Wandel zu erwirken, der heute wichtiger denn je erscheint, da nur ein Paradigmenwechsel in allen Teilen der Gesellschaft den drohenden Klimakollaps aufhalten kann. Das Banner und Thema der Marx-Konferenz 2019 wird daher lauten: The Battle of Climate Change and the Death of Capitalism – “Because there is no alternative!” („Der Kampf gegen den Klimawandel und der Tod des Kapitalismus– „Weil es keine Alternative gibt!“)

GÖRAN THERBORN is a professor emeritus of sociology at Cambridge University and is amongst the most highly cited contempora – ry Marxian-influenced sociologists. He has published widely in journals such as the New Left Review, and is notable for his writing on topics that fall within the general political and sociological framework of post-Marxism. Topics on which he has written extensively include the intersection between the class structure of society and the function of the state apparatus, the for – mation of ideology within subjects, and the futu – re of the Marxist tradition.

In his new book, Fully Automated Luxury Communism, Bastani conju – res a vision of extraordinary hope, showing how we move to energy abundance, feed a world of 9 billion, overcome work, transcend the limits of biology, and establish meaningful freedom for everyone. Rather than a final destination, such a society merely heralds the real beginning of his – tory. His talk will be followed by a conversation with Aron Etzler, party secretary of the Left Party in Sweden.
