2 pm - Course: Oligarchy w/Class Unity

“The history of all hitherto existing societies,” Marx once wrote, “is the history of class struggle.” What if the central political form of our time is not democracy — the rule of the majority of people — but oligarchy — the rule of the few? This course examines the idea and structure of oligarchic power in theory, in history, and in contemporary practice. We’ll read political theorists and social scientists who have analyzed how wealth, status, and institutional control concentrate in the hands of a small elite even within ostensibly democratic societies. Core readings include Michael Parenti’s Democracy for the Few, G. William Domhoff’s Who Rules America?, and a selection of historical documents. We will trace how “national” concerns are invoked to justify decisions that primarily benefit dominant classes and will ask whether oligarchy today operates more through persuasion than coercion. We will also compare classical notions of aristocracy and plutocracy to modern networks of corporate, bureaucratic, and intelligence power.

In the wake of the powerful Nationwide Day of Action for “No War on Venezuela” where over 65 cities mobilized to demand an end to the US war drive on Venezuela, we gather again to assess the current moment and chart the path forward.

This webinar will provide space to evaluate the impact of our mobilizations against a potential war with Venezuela and discuss how we can deepen anti-war consciousness in our communities.

As U.S. threats and manufactured narratives escalate, our responsibility to build a broad and politically grounded anti-war movement becomes even more urgent.
