The Brecht Forum The New York Marxist School 122 West 27 Street, 10 floor New York, New York 10001 (212) 242-4201 (212) 741-4563 (fax) [EMAIL PROTECTED] (e-mail) A Plea for "De-revising" Marx a seminar with Boris Kagarlitsky Saturday, March 2 from 1 to 5 pm Kagarlitsky argues that our reality has changed since the 1970s when revision was creative. Now, de-revision is needed. Society increasingly resembles that which Marx described. Now the various revisionisms, not Marx, look archaic. This seminar will analyze the difference between creative work based on Marxism and self-proclaimed revisions masking empty retreats. Kagarlitsky was a founder of the Russian Party of Labor and served on the Moscow City Council. He currently heads a project on the labor movement at the Russian Academy of Science. His numerous books include _Farewell Perestroika_, _The Labyrinth of Modernization_, and _The Dialectic of Change_. Tuition is $15. //30
