Скачать или смотреть Nancy Fraser on Defining Socialism: "What Should Socialism Mean in the 21st Century?"

In this talk, Nancy Fraser, Henry A. and Louise Loeb Professor of Philosophy and Politics at The New School for Social Research, argues that a socialism for the 21st century must be ecological, feminist, anti-racist, and democratic. Fraser queries what politicians like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez mean when they use the term "socialism" proudly and win support, while organizations that espouse it attract new members in droves. This lecture provides a possible answer to these emergent questions about what socialism is by drawing on an expanded conception of capitalism, articulating a socialism beyond economic terms.
