Last week, we held our first Anti-Capitalism Meetup. This week, we continue our discussion by focusing on Immanuel Wallerstein's article, "Crisis of the Capitalist System: Where Do We Go From Here?"
There are two housekeeping matters to be decided in the comments:
- Is it agreed to move next week's meeting to Sunday at 6 PM EDT.
- Who will lead next week's meeting?
Our discussion this week centers around Immanuel Wallerstein's article "Crisis of the Capitalist System: Where Do We Go From Here."
Wallerstein is an American sociologist who is currently a Senior Research Fellow at Yale.
Discussion questions:
- Wallerstein argues that Capitalism is in crisis. Do you find his argument persuasive?
- Wallterstein identifies four groups that will battle over what succeeds Capitalism. In what group would you place yourself and why?
- Where are the battlegrounds on which the contest over what comes next?
