From Dawn to Decadence (Part VI) With Varn Vlog
In part VI the boys discuss theories of "decadence" as viewed by the Aufheben collective. We focus on their early contributions to Marxist theory, critique of the state, and their eventual decline. Note: Within days of recording this, the Iran war broke out, but this was recorded a few days before that started. Key Topics Discussed: The Roots of Aufheben: How the collective emerged within the landscape of radical Marxist theory. Critique of Luxemburgism: Why Aufheben rejected theories of automatic economic collapse in favor of a more nuanced understanding of class struggle. The Decay of Theory: Analyzing the shifts in the collective’s perspective that signaled a move away from their original radical foundations. Theoretical Implications: How these debates on the "highest stage" of capitalism and the "rentier state" remain relevant in today's shifting global landscape. https://www.patreon.com/c/varnvlog/posts

About The Regrettable Century
The old forms of the Left are moribund and the new forms are stupid. We’re making a podcast that discusses the need to organize a Dialectical Pessimism and develop a salvage project capable of sparking a new workers’ movement for socialism. A clean, honest, and unsentimental melancholy is required; we are cultivating one and would like to share it with you.
