20:11Now PlayingThis video continues an exploration of Corneilius Castoriadis’ book “The Imaginary Institution of Society.” Specifically. we consider his objection to Marx’s understanding of historical materialism and historical change and attempt to defend Marx’s Hegelianism from Castoriadis’ criticisms. Could a dialectical approach to historical change makes sense and if it can make sense of the struggle for socialism. Along the way, we’ll paraphrase Mark Fisher’s “Ghosts of My Life.”

The modern world is at an impasse. Disasters scroll across our smartphone screens and we’re invited to like, follow or upvote, but critical thinking is harder and harder to find. Rather than connecting us in common struggle and debate, the internet has sped up and deepened a long-standing process of alienation and atomization.
