Diving Into the Wreckage: Nationalism, Liberalism and the State 4 w/ C Derick Varn

Sean and Varn return with part four of their series on nationalism and the nation state. This episode is about the vexing questions of class and nation that arose in the 20th century and are unresolved today. Why did both the reformist and revolutionary wings of the classical workers movement turn towards state developmentalism? How did really existing class develop to conflict with Marxist theories of working class emancipation? What mistakes from past movements are we still making today whether we know it or not? How did the millennial left really die and how might we move past it?

This is part one of an extended, three-hour discussion. To access the full episode, become a patron of the Antifada at www.patreon.com/theantifada. To see the video of this discussion and get a whole lot more incisive commentary sign up for www.patreon.com/varnvlog
