Part 2 Part 3 Part 4
In light of my last article and the discussion following it, I found the latest discussion from last years' Marxism festival in London very interesting. Almost a year ago, John Holloway and Alex Callinicos debate strategies for changing the world at Marxism festival in London.
John Holloway is a lawyer, Marxist-oriented sociologist and philosopher, whose work is closely associated with the Zapatista movement in Mexico, his home since 1991. He was born in Dublin, Ireland, and has a Ph.D in Political Science from the University of Edinburgh. He is currently a teacher at the Institute for Humanities and Social Sciences at the Autonomous University of Puebla.
Alex Callinicos has played a leading role in the European and World Social Forums, speaking at events and workshops across the world. His books include The Revolutionary Ideas of Karl Marx, Against Postmodernism and The New Mandarins of American Power.
He is currently director of the European Studies Program at King’s College London.
