Key research themes

1. How do Marxist theories conceptualize social class dynamics in relation to labor alienation and political movements?

This research theme investigates evolving Marxist perspectives on the nature of social class, particularly emphasizing labor's dispossession and alienation in capitalist societies. It critiques traditional, static class models and explores the implications of class fluidity for understanding and supporting contemporary social and political movements. This theme matters because a refined class analysis shapes Marxist praxis and theoretical coherence in interpreting ongoing struggles and transformations under capitalism.

Key finding: This paper critically examines Open Marxist accounts of class, arguing that their rejection of conventional, static class classification sacrifices complexity by reducing class relations to a dualism between alienated,... Read more
Key finding: Through reflections on Stuart Hall's intellectual trajectory, this work highlights the need for Marxist approaches that respond dynamically to political conjunctures beyond traditional statist and laborist frameworks. Hall’s... Read more
Key finding: The author critiques academic Marxist tendencies toward internal theoretical 'quibbling,' emphasizing the need for praxis-focused class analysis attentive to lived intersectional experiences of race, class, and gender. Using... Read more

2. How can Marxist theory inform analyses of education as a site for class struggle and social emancipation?

This theme explores the application of Marxist thought to education, considering how educational structures reproduce or challenge capitalist class relations. It engages with historical and contemporary projects of worker and popular education, emphasizing pedagogical practices that express subordinated group experiences and foster emancipatory potential. Understanding education through a Marxist lens matters for shaping transformative social praxis and contesting capitalist hegemonies within and beyond schooling.

Key finding: This article foregrounds the centrality of worker education in early Marxist thought, using Karl Korsch's 1923 'Marxism and Philosophy' to argue that Marxist theory must ‘express’ workers' life experiences and struggles. It... Read more
Key finding: This review synthesizes contributions highlighting Marxism’s deployment as a framework for critiquing capitalist educational policies, conceptualizing education as a field of class struggle, and exploring pedagogies fostering... Read more

3. What are the roles of ideology, hegemony, and populism in shaping contemporary political and social formations under capitalism?

This theme examines the Marxist-critiqued ideological processes underpinning power structures, focusing on populism, religious majoritarianism, and hegemonic projects that seek to universalize particular interests. It considers how these manifestations impact socio-political dynamics, often mediating capitalist relations and producing specific political subjectivities. Investigating these processes is crucial for developing Marxist strategies to confront current and emerging forms of political domination and class struggle.

Key finding: This research applies Gramscian hegemony theory to analyze the rise of Hindutva majoritarianism as a hegemonic project advancing particular religious-populist interests as falsely universal. It elucidates how charismatic... Read more
Key finding: This chapter reassesses Kojève's interpretation of Hegelian dialectics, exposing his aristocratic radicalism and his conception of the universal and homogeneous state as culminating in a paradoxical 'end of man.' Through... Read more
