#13 Class—Part 1
from The New Party Podcast · host Tom Williams, Andrew Jeffery, Kallum Pembro
This deep dive episode gets theoretical about class. In this first part of three, writer and editor at the New Socialist Tom Gann takes us through what Marx meant by class and what the working class is in Marxist terms. With statements about Your Party 'being a working class party', and saying that the Green Party is not, we have to engage with what this might actually mean. This is an episode that requires closer listening. There is a lot in here that people newer to this area of theory can follow and use in thinking about class right now, as well as layers that can be further explored. Further episodes will explore further.You can read the New Socialist here: https://newsocialist.org.uk/ And follow Tom here: https://x.com/Tom_Gann
