The Brecht Forum/New York Marxist School presents
Alternative Modernities:
A Socialist Conception or An Apology for Capitalism
a talk by Michael Brie
Monday, November 13 at 8 pm
Rather than a monolithic capitalist system, Brie views our society
as one where autonomous spheres make room for socialist
possibilities through the ambiguities in its modernizing
potentials. The question then becomes: can the dominance of capital
be subdued?
Michael Brie was a leading figure in the group of East German
scholars who elaborated a theory of modern socialism in the
1980s. He has published on Russia and on the socialist experience
in the GDR.
Admission to this lecture is $6.
