YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Is the state a politically neutral entity? Are capitalism and democracy at odds? How can working class movements achieve political leverage within the state? How does the presence of a workers' party benefit workers? What are such a party's limitations? How is the state 'structurally dependent' on capital and capitalists?

Today we're joined with professor of sociology at New York University and editor of Catalyst, Vivek Chibber, to discuss the contents of his second ABC's of Capitalism pamphlets: Capitalism and the State. In this talk he answers all of the questions above and more.
