Anti-imperialism Archives - Marxist-Humanist Initiative

Sunday, April 12, 2026, 1-3 pm EDT, on Zoom

Discussion of 2 new draft chapters of Andrew Kliman’s forthcoming book, focusing on Marx’s conclusion that “right can never be higher than the economic structure of society.” Short overview by Kliman, and mini-presentations on how the “Ought Implies Can” principle informs Marx’s thought, differences between conceptions of justice as internal to a particular society and as an external ideal, and Marx’s conception of freedom as “unfettered self-development of every individual.”

Meeting is open to invited participants. Please send your request to attend to mhi@marxisthumanistinitiative.org at least 3 days in advance for the Zoom link, briefly indicating why you’re interested in MHI and where you’re located.
