The Estate Agent  | Racing...Only Bettor | Episode 212

Con Julio Martínez-Cava

En su libro Miseria de la teoría (Verso, 2024), E.P. Thompson especula sobre la posibilidad de que él mismo y Louise Althusser aparenetemente coincidían en una misma idea “la de que la lucha de clases es un concepto que precede al de clase, de que la clase no precede a la lucha de clases sino que surge de ella”.  Pero también advierte que esta coincidencia es solo aparente, ya que -desde su punto de vista- Althusser nunca admitiría que “las clases surgen porque los hombres y las mujeres, bajo determinadas relaciones de producción, identifican sus intereses antagónicos y son llevados a luchar, a pensar y a valorar en términos clasistas: de modo que el proceso de formación de clase consiste en un hacerse a sí mismo, si bien bajo condiciones dadas”

En esta sesión entraremos a discutir a partir de los trabajos de EP. Thompson la compleja relación entre sujeto e historia. El papel de las revoluciones, las revueltas y las protestas. En definitiva, pensar cómo se han producido y construido las clases a partir de las experiencias comunes de lucha y los debate que esta posición acusada de "culturalista" abrió en el campo marxista y en la historia crítica.
