Marxian Class Analysis 
<http://brechtforum.org/civicrm/event/info?id=11567&reset=1>

Rick Wolff

/There are two basic purposes of this intensive class. The first is to 
teach the specifics of Marxian class analysis (its history, different 
interpretations, and basic structure). The second is to show in detail 
how to apply Marxian class analysis and what unique insights it achieves 
both in terms of understanding society and strategizing for social change./

intellectuals from what has been called the "Black Atlantic" have 
understood and responded to the logic and expansion of Western dominance./
