Post-socialist Transitions reading group

- Export as iCalendar
Location: FAB3.31

We’re looking forward to seeing you again at the next Post-socialist Transitions reading group, though please be aware that with the train strikes on Wednesday, we’ve changed the date for our next session to Tuesday (7 May) from 12-13.00 (FAB 3.31).

For those of you who weren’t able to make the last one, please feel free to join us for our next session. Prior or specialist knowledge of the topic is not required and everyone is welcome. As mentioned before, we’re reading through Nobel laureate, Svetlana Alexievich’s remarkable novel, Second-hand Time. Alongside this, we’re also reading a few short texts that address/theorise the transition from socialism to capitalism – next week we’re looking at Free: Coming of Age at the End of History by Lea Ypi, Professor of Political Theory at LSE.

 

Times, venues and the weekly readings are available here, and in true communitarian spirit there will be tea and biscuits to share.

 

All best,

 

Myka and Christine
