New piece forthcoming in the Point, which outlines my vision for a new Hegelian Marxism - and challenges the recent direction of the value-critique tradition (Mau) as well as degrowth communism (Saito). let’s goooo

why does no one in the marxist tradition actually think about what it means to be an agent? hegel had one lesson: to be free is to be self-conscious, to act in light of an end you take yourself to have, and that must ultimately be an end you can share with others. that’s it.

Congrats Jensen Suther

Truly material:
