Bimodal seminar with Jason W. Moore: Postcapitalism in the Web of Life?

Jason Moore offers a critique of capitalism as a way of organizing planetary life. We would like to have a prospective discussion on how planetary life could be organized after capitalism. The conclusion of “L’écologie-monde du capitalisme” is entitled “Vers le Prolétarocène”; what form could this new relationship with our planet take? What would its institutions, productive forms, symbolic mediations, and ways of allocating resources be? What must be done to avoid returning to or reproducing the Capitalocene?

This seminar is bimodal. People are welcome to join online, but priority will be given to in-person discussion. This seminar is not an introduction to Jason W. Moore’s work; participants are expected to be familiar with his work to engage in the discussion.
