Once again we are drowning in 🔥abstracts and we are not mad about it! Thank you so much! We really appreciate every single one even though we will only be able to accept half of them😭💔

Danish Marxism on the front page of the Danish daily “Kristeligt Dagblad” today, as a reminder to submit your abstracts to @dkmarxsoc.bsky.social 10th annual conference before hitting the streets and the barricades! Kampen fortsætter!

🚨DEADLINE TOMORROW!🚨

Foucault might have had a few things to add about the close relationship between pastoral and sovereign power

Rest in peace Joshua Clover

The abstracts are coming in! 🥳 But remember the ONLY deadline is in four days!

This is one of the best times I've ever had at an academic conference - highly recommend submitting something to the Danish Society for Marxist Studies conference this fall.

"Andreas Malm and Wim Carton argue that we have been lulled by the liberal greenwash of a climate mitigation process that has persuaded us we are on track." Adam Wickberg on Andreas Malm and Wim Carton's Overshoot, from @versobooks.bsky.social: criticalinquiry.uchicago.edu/adam_wickber...

Out today. Feel free to recommend it to your librarian www.cambridge.org/core/books/k...

With Trump’s declaration of a state of exception on the border and removal of legal protections at will, Agamben's work appears relevant again, even if he seemed to lose it during COVID. In my new article, I try to work out how we can still use his thinking to make sense of the world in spite of him

🚨KEYNOTE #2 ANNOUNCEMENT!🚨 We are beyond excited to reveal that our second keynote at this year's conference is 🔥 Ashok Kumar🔥 aka @brosef-stalin.bsky.social 😍💕

New proofs are in, this time for my forthcoming text “Sovereignty, State of Exception, and Pandemic Paranoia: Where is Agamben Now?” which will hopefully soon be out in Thesis Eleven.

Danish Marxism knows no borders… CfP out now from our friends in London!

SMS executive committee member and Wunderkind og Danish agrarian history Markus Hansen brilliantly defending his dissertation, ‘The Politics of Natural Law - Agrarian Reform, Intra-Aristocratic Conflict, and Natural Jurisprudence in Denmark, c. 1750-1800’, at Lund University today ✨💕

❗🚨KEYNOTE ANNOUNCEMENT🚨❗ All the rumors are true! Our first keynote speaker for this year's conference is none other than M.E.O’Brien😍 O'Brien writes and speaks on capitalism, gender freedom and family abolition!🔥

I wrote a short essay introducing the concept of “securitization,” which I find helpful in trying to make sense of the world today. It refers to political actors’ construction of phenomena as a matter of urgent and existential threat, legitimizing extraordinary measures... (1/2)

psssst, hey kids, wanna see a good-looking danish marxist talk about political theology 😏💕

I made a short video-abstract introducing my recent article “Political Theology: Origins, Concepts, and Contradictions” out in @theoryculturesociety.org

Last year the sessions were packed!🥵 And even though it was lovely sitting very close to great comrades🥰 we've made sure to book more space this year. So if you want to present your paper in these rooms which are hopefully going to be filled with 💕marxists💕 pls submit your abstract before May 1st!
