Gareth Stedman Jones gives Grimm Lecture on Marx

A remarkable start to the 2018-2019 academic year at UW with a lecture by  Gareth Stedman Jones concerning Karl Marx: Greatness and Illusion.  Stedman Jones was invited to give the 2018 Grimm Lecture on Thursday 20 September 2018.  The lecture is an event organized by the Waterloo Centre for German Studies.

 

In the new biography, Stedman Jones makes a compelling case for recovering the analytical distance separating Marx and Engels, and their different political strategies.
