The next meeting of the Manchester Class Struggle Forum will take place on the subject of class struggle in China.
Recent years have seen a rise in class conflict in China, as workers in “the sweatshop of the world” become increasingly confident in asserting their demands against an authoritarian state, multinational corporations, and servile trade unions. We will be discussing the implications of these developments, and what lessons we can draw from them for the future.
The meeting will be introduced by a presentation on the subject, before moving to open discussion.

These people are a bit much. They nick my theory and then call me a kitsch Trotyskyist. Is that because they’re kitsch humanists?
