Four Lectures at Wuhan University, China, October 2007

These lectures were delivered over several days at the Department of Philosophy, Wuhan University, under the invitation of Professors He Ping and Wang Xinyan. The videos show excerpts from the lectures and discussions by faculty and students in response. The first lecture is a general discussion of dialectics. Lecture two covers themes from my Marx at the Margins (2010). Lectures three and four deal with issues from my Lenin, Hegel, and Western Marxism (1995). The audience – which was both outspoken and knowledgeable — consisted mainly of Wuhan philosophy faculty and grad students. Many of the latter were working on dissertations on Western Marxists and radical thinkers, such as Herbert Marcuse, Antonio Gramsci, Marxism and feminism, Rosa Luxemburg, Jürgen Habermas, Karel Kosík, Louis Althusser, Michel Foucault, Georg Lukács, Jean Baudrillard, or Raya Dunayevskaya.

Each of the lectures is about 1 hour, with 90 minutes for discussion:

“Dialectics Today”
“From the Grundrisse to Capital: Multilinear Themes”
“Lenin and Philosophy”
“Lenin and Western Marxism”

Interview with Kevin Anderson and Janet Afary

Lecture on Foucault and the Iranian Revolution by Janet Afary and Kevin Anderson (Big Ideas, TV Ontario, Canada)

This talk features Janet Afary and Kevin Anderson — Purdue University professors and authors of Foucault and the Iranian Revolution — who raise the question as to why a thinker of Foucault’s stature would invest his intellectual capital in supporting a movement that proved itself opposed to the principles of Enlightenment. And so the debate goes on….
