Jodi Dean and three of her readers, Svenja Bromberg (CPCT Goldsmiths), Peter Hallward (CRMEP) and James Martel (San Francisco State), will be discussing her claims that capitalism is giving way to something that is arguably worse than capitalism itself: a form of neofeudalism that combines the worst elements of both capitalism and feudalism and adds terrible new features of its own. In this conversation, Dean and her interlocutors will discuss both the argument itself as well as its implications for resistance as we move into unprecedented and unparallelled times.
