On January 28, 2024, I presented a lecture at Sunday Morning at the Marxist Library, in an event co-sponsored by the Critical Theory Workshop. It was entitled “Are Fascism and Liberalism Partners in Capitalist Crime?” It is now available online.
The Centre for Marxian Studies at Jadavpur University, in cooperation with the CTW, will host an online lecture by me, with a response by Himani Bannerji, on January 25 at 9 a.m. EST. The talk is entitled “The Imperial Theory Industry & the Compatible Left Intelligentsia.” It will provide a programmatic overview of the book I am completing on the topic, and it will be followed by a discussion with questions from the audience. If you would like to register, please send your full name and reason for attending to: criticaltheoryworkshop@protonmail.com
I was pleased to share an overview of my book project with the participants in the Critical Theory Workshop‘s 2022 Summer School in Paris and online. We discuss my intellectual and political development, elucidating what has led me from French theory and Frankfurt School critical theory to a historical materialist critique of the global theory industry.

Invited speakers include Derek Ford, Clara Lecadet, Helmut-Harry Loewen, Jennifer Ponce de León, Eli Portella Perreras, Salvador Rangel, myself, and more TBA.
