The discussion will also ask:

Is every generation compelled to produce its own “Marxism”? If so, what kind of Marxism is needed in this conjuncture from the perspective of Gen Z?

Co-organized by The Workers' School, the Marxist Forum, and rift.

[The Workers' School @WorkersSchoolPH]

❓What draws younger generations to Marxism today? What do they find useful in it? What do they find limiting? How can those limits be overcome?

Young students and workers will reflect on how they encountered Marxism and why they engage with it today.

For the final session of our Intro to Marxism course, we look back at what we covered while also examining the Marxism(s) being forged for the struggles ahead.

Mula kina Marx at Engels hanggang sa mga debate nina Bernstein, Lenin, Luxemburg, Gramsci, Sison, Lagman, at iba pa, pag-aaralan natin ang iba’t ibang ambag sa Marxismo upang palakasin ang ating kakayahang suriin at baguhin ang mundo.

Hear from Gen Z and Millennial students and young workers engaging with Marxism today.

What draws them to it? What do they find useful or limiting? What kind of Marxism is needed for the crises of the 21st century?

Gen Z is projected to become the first generation economically worse off than their parents, and among the most skeptical of capitalism.

Why are young people rediscovering Marx today? Is it just an aesthetic trend, or a deeper political shift?

Then came the 2008 crash, stagnant wages, a pandemic that exposed the failures of the social safety net, intensifying genocide and imperialist rearmament, and a climate crisis growing harder to ignore.

Enter Gen Z.

A SPECTRE IS HAUNTING THE YOUTH...

For decades after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Marxism was dismissed as a relic. Capitalism’s defenders declared the “end of history” and insisted there was no alternative to exploitation, inequality, and war.

“Semi-feudal” pa rin ba ang Pilipinas o atrasadong kapitalista na? Angkop pa rin ba ang “protracted people’s war” o kailangan na ng ibang estratehiya para baguhin ang lipunan?

Sa huling session ng ating Intro to Marxism, tatalakayin natin ang debate nina Ka Joma at Ka Popoy
