On Hauntology and Dialectical Pessimism w. From78 (Pt. 1)

On this week of Red Library, we combine our podcasting powers with the excellent From78 podcast to collaborate on some meta-commentary about a lot of topics of frequent discussion on the show.   This was originally recorded as an episode of From78 but we wanted to share with you, comrade listeners, to help spread the word about this great podcast and because of the strong resonance with so many of our past episodes. Comrade Adam was interviewed for the show and some of the topics of the conversation include hauntology, dialectical pessimism, philosophy, psychoanalysis, social work, history, and tons more.   Part 2 will be dropping next week!   Further Readings/References From78 's Patreon page Listen to From78 Derrida's Spectres of Marx Hauntology Mark Fisher May 1968 Psychoanalytic Drive Theory Rosa Luxemburg Indian Maoist Naxalite Rebellion Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist Centre) Negative Feedback Why Theory?
