Sociology Annual Lecture – Marx’s Late Writings: Theories of Revolutionary Change and of Alternatives to Capitalism


The annual lecture is a key event for the Department of Sociology. This yearly address offers faculty, staff and students a unique opportunity to meet prominent leaders in the field.

Distinguished Lecturer: Kevin B. Anderson

In his late writings, Marx ventured beyond the boundaries of capital and class in the Western European and North American contexts, turning his attention to colonialism, agrarian Russia and India, Indigenous societies and gender. Guest Lecturer and author, Kevin B. Anderson, joins us to discuss the findings from his new book, The Late Marx’s Revolutionary Roads, which analyzes the late writings of Marx covering topics such as Indigenous communism, gender and anti-colonialism as well as a broader perspective on a global, multilinear theory of modern society and its revolutionary possibilities.
