Join Salvage and Haymarket Books for a discussion of the war in Ukraine and how the international left should respond. We are joined by the Russian socialist and anti-war activist Ilya Matveev—co-founder of openleft.ru—and Ukrainian sociologist Voldoymyr Ishchenko, for a special edition of Salvage Live on the war in Ukraine. How did we get to this crisis? What might the future hold? How secure is Putin? Does this mark the passing of unipolar American hegemony, or not, and how should we understand imperialism today? As rival blocs spread carnage, socialist internationalism once again issues an urgent call to save the world from the flames. ———————————————————————————————— Speakers: Ilya Matveev is a researcher and lecturer based in St Petersburg, Russia. He is a founding editor of Openleft.ru and a member of the research group Public Sociology Laboratory. Volodymyr Ishchenko is a sociologist based in Kyiv. He has published articles and interviews in the Guardian and New Left Review. Barnaby Raine is writing his PhD at Columbia University on visions of ending capitalism. He teaches at the Brooklyn Institute for Social Research. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This event is sponsored by Salvage and Haymarket Books.

Join Salvage and Haymarket Books for a conversation on Decolonisation and its Discontents with Kevin Ochieng Okoth. About this event Decolonization has become a recurring subject in an endless stream of op-eds, think pieces, and books. Yet despite so much ink spent on the topic there seems to be little agreement on what exactly we want to achieve by ‘decolonizing’ something. Answering this, and clarifying what is at stake in these conversations, requires posing additional questions like ‘what is our relationship to the institution or discipline we want to decolonize? Are we asking for those things to be reformed, or do we want them abolished altogether? Or is decolonizing a method of critique, intended to expose the colonial and racist foundations of its target? And, crucially, how do contempary movements for decolonization—emerging almost exclusively from universities, museums and art institutions—relate to the aims and achievements of the national liberation movements that dismantled colonial states? Building on Kevin Ochieng Okoth’s forthcoming article in Salvage #10, Annie Olaloku-Teriba and Barnaby Raine will aim to answer these questions and discuss what today’s calls to decolonize can learn from the struggles that defeated imperial powers in the twentieth century. This discussion will be part of the ongoing Salvage Live events series, hosted by Haymarket Books. https://www.salvage.zone for more info. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Kevin Ochieng Okoth is a writer and researcher living in London.

Salvage and Haymarket Books host a conversation on what we can learn about politics, capitalism, and resistance from the late David Graeber. The anarchist theorist and anthropologist David Graeber died last year—far too young—and produced an outpouring of grief across the global Left. Occurring as it did, during the last quarter of a long, bleak year, with few prospects of dramatic improvements ahead, the loss of Graeber’s optimism not only of the will, but of the intellect, was felt as a body blow. Building on James Meadway’s article in Salvage #9, Annie Olaloku-Teriba and Barnaby Raine will host a conversation between James and Hannah Appel—David Graeber’s friend and collaborator—on the lessons offered to the Left by Graeber’s life and thought. This will be the first in the new ongoing Salvage Live events series, hosted by Haymarket Books. ---------------------------------------------------- Read James Meadway's article here: https://salvage.zone/articles/acting-as-if-one-is-already-free-david-graebers-political-economy-and-the-strategic-impasse-of-the-left/ For more from Salvage: https://salvage.zone/ Speakers: James Meadway is an economist and former economic advisor to Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell.
