Reading Group: Marx on Capital. 12/3 🌹
2020-12-03 19:00 - 21:00
Join Central Indiana DSA comrades and fellow-travelers as we read through several of Marx’s works on capital. This week, we’ll read and discuss chapter seven of Capital, Volume One on Thursday, December 3rd, at 7pm. Please RSVP here for meeting details and the syllabus: https://actionnetwork.org/forms/central-in-dsa-marx-on-capital-reading-group
One of the most foundational socialist texts is Marx’s “Capital”. While it is quite challenging, by reading it together we can make it more manageable and help develop our shared understanding of Marx’s work. We’ll work up to that behemoth, though, by tackling a few of his shorter, more manageable texts, starting with “Wage Labor and Capital” in a couple weeks, then every other week after that reading another of Marx’s key texts, before ultimately moving on to “Capital”.
You can download an ebook or PDF of the Capital, Volume One as well as the other main texts, here: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/download/index.htm
