June 30th: New kinds of socialism for new global modernities Posted on March 14th
New kinds of socialism for new global modernities
The third Soundings annual event
Saturday 30 June 10.30am to 5pm
Tavistock Centre, 120 Belsize Lane, London NW3 5BA
The socialism that developed in response to the modernity of Western mass industrial society has largely passed into history. New global modernities are emerging, and we need to create new kinds of socialism, able effectively to counter the destructive impact of capitalism.
Part of the Soundings left futures project, this one-day event will look at the impact of financialisation and globalisation, the role of the state, and the politics of the social recession. From May the Soundings website (www.soundings.org.uk) will be hosting analysis and debate on left futures, with the opportunity for comment and discussion.
New kinds of socialism for new global modernities is organised in association with Compass (www.compassonline.org.uk) and Red Pepper (www.redpepper.org.uk) and financially supported by the Barry Amiel and Norman Melburn Trust.
Registration costs £25, unwaged is £10 (includes lunch). To reserve a place, send credit card details or a cheque payable to Soundings to FREEPOST, LON 15823, London, E9 5BR (no stamp is needed).
