Centre for Critical Thought Lecture: Paul Auerbach, Thursday 30 March 2017, 17.00 in Grimond Lecture Theatre 1 (GLT1).

‘Socialist optimism: an alternative political economy for the twenty-first century’

The Centre for Critical Thought invite you to their forthcoming talk with Paul Auerbach. Paul Auerbach, Reader in Economics at Kingston University, offers an alternative political economy for the twenty-first century in Socialist Optimism (Palgrave Macmillan, 2016). Socialism as human development gives a unity and direction to progressive policies that are otherwise seen to be a form of pragmatic tinkering in the context of a pervasive capitalist reality.

All are welcome to attend, no booking necessary.
