Revisiting Revol Press books # 6: C. Derick Varn & Daniel Tutt – The People Are Not One ✊🏽📚

In The People Are Not One, Daniel Tutt and C. Derick Varn dismantle the central illusion of contemporary left politics: that “the people” can serve as a coherent subject of emancipation. Against both right and left populisms, they argue that this fantasy of unity obscures real class antagonisms and traps socialism in a dead-end politics of moral appeal and electoral maneuver.

Through a sustained critique of left-populism, post-Marxist theory, and Democratic Party–oriented socialism, Tutt and Varn show how the collapse of mass politics, alongside debates over the professional-managerial class and the atomization of working-class life, has produced a strategic impasse on the left.

What follows is not a lament but a provocation: a call to abandon populist shortcuts and rebuild socialist strategy on the terrain of class struggle as it actually exists—uneven, divided, and politically unformed. The People Are Not One is a manifesto for a post-populist left willing to confront fragmentation head-on and begin the long work of reconstructing class power.

We are offering one full and one partial Scholarship for our upcoming Seminar, “The Later Lukács on Social Ontology, Irrationalism & Marxist Reason,” taught by Daniel Tutt @danieltutt and starting on October 2.

This Seminar reads major selections from Georg Lukács's later writings alongside his most significant interpreters, taking up the ontology of social being and the critique of irrationalism as attempts to break with neo-Kantian conceptions of reason in philosophy and politics. The aim is to clarify what distinguishes Marxist reason from its neo-Kantian rival, and to return to the questions of alienation, reification, and class consciousness raised in History and Class Consciousness. Those questions persist in the late work, where Lukács builds a systematic Hegelian-Marxist project to answer them. The Seminar also reads that project against neo-rationalism, speculative realism, and current arguments over humanism and transhumanism.

Session 1: The Neo-Kantian Hole: Totality and History
Session 2: Irrationalism and Marxist Reason
Session 3: Why Social Ontology? Social Class and Ethics
Session 4: The Role of Labor and Teleology: Towards a Renewed Humanism

DEADLINE: September 30 at 23:59 ET.
To apply, send a 250-word letter to studentservices@thenewcentre.org explaining your background and your need for financial relief. The New Centre Members will be given priority for the full Scholarship.

In this video, our Instructor Daniel Tutt @danieltutt introduces the upcoming Seminar, “The Later Lukács on Social Ontology, Irrationalism & Marxist Reason,” beginning October 2 at The New Centre.

For decades, Georg Lukács’s later work drew little attention from academic philosophers. Following the 2021 republication of The Destruction of Reason and a renewed interest in Hegelian Marxism, this Seminar reads major selections from Lukács’s later writings alongside his most significant interpreters, focusing on his theory of the ontology of social being and his critique of irrationalism as an attempt to break with the neo-Kantian conception of reason still shaping philosophy and politics today.

Across four sessions, Participants revisit the debates on alienation, reification, and class consciousness first raised in History and Class Consciousness, and examine how Lukács’s later philosophy bears on contemporary socialist practice, read alongside neo-rationalism, speculative realism, and current debates on humanism and transhumanism.

Our Seminar, “The Later Lukács on Social Ontology, Irrationalism & Marxist Reason,” by Daniel Tutt @danieltutt , will start on October 2.

For decades, Georg Lukács’s later work drew little attention from academic philosophers. The 2021 republication of The Destruction of Reason, alongside a wider return to Hegelian Marxism, has renewed interest in this period as one of the twentieth century’s most ambitious attempts to build a systematic Marxist philosophy. This Seminar reads selections from Lukács’s later writings together with his most significant interpreters, focusing on his theory of the ontology of social being and his critique of irrationalism as a decisive break from the neo-Kantian conception of reason that still shapes philosophy and politics today.

The Seminar traces what a distinctly Marxist reason looks like against neo-Kantian thought, and returns to the debates first raised in History and Class Consciousness on alienation, reification, and class consciousness. These concerns do not disappear in Lukács’s later writings; he develops a comprehensive Hegelian-Marxist account of social being that addresses them directly. Participants will come away with a fuller grasp of Lukács’s later philosophy and its bearing on socialist practice today, read alongside neo-rationalism, speculative realism, and current debates on humanism and transhumanism.

Session 1: The Neo-Kantian Hole: Totality and History
Session 2: Irrationalism and Marxist Reason
Session 3: Why Social Ontology? Social Class and Ethics
Session 4: The Role of Labor and Teleology: Towards a Renewed Humanism

Fredric Jameson’ın vefatının üzerinden iki yıl geçtiğine inanmak zor. Bu vesileyle, onun başyapıtı olan Siyasal Bilinçdışı üzerine bir çalışma grubu düzenledim; bu metin, hakkında konuşmak istediğim ve Jameson’ın en önemli katkısı olarak gördüğüm bir eserdir. Jameson’la hiç yüz yüze tanışmadım ve hiç onun seminerine katılma fırsatım olmadı; ancak hayatının son aylarında, e-posta yoluyla ona Fransız Marksist Michel Clouscard’ın çalışmalarını tanıtmıştım ve Fransa’daki Clouscard çevresi, Jameson’a Clouscard’ın başlıca eserlerinden oluşan bir paket göndermişti. Jameson’un büyük ilgi ve merakla karşılık verdiği Clouscard’ın eserlerini ona gönderdikten sadece birkaç ay sonra, Jameson’ın vefat ettiğini öğrendim.

Jameson’ın derin siyasi ve kültürel dönüşümlerin yaşandığı bir dönemde öne çıktığı ve akademideki yükselişinin Soğuk Savaş döneminin anti-komünizm ikliminden etkilendiği gerçeği asla göz ardı edilmemelidir. Bu dönemde akademi içinde bir Marksist olarak açıkça çalışmak, mesleki izolasyonu kabul etmek anlamına geliyordu ve bu durum, solcu akademisyenlerin büyük çoğunluğunun giderek liberalleşen bir Marksizm akımına uyum sağlamasına yol açtı. Jameson, en azından pratik bağlılıklarına bakıldığında, bir Yeni Sol (New Left) Marksisti idi. Herhangi bir komünist partiye bağlı değildi, Sovyetler Birliği’ne büyük ölçüde eleştirel yaklaşıyordu ve çalışmalarında, Marksist yöntemlerle uyum veya sentez içinde olmaları için hiçbir neden görünmeyen söylemleri dahil etme ve bunlara yer verme eğilimiyle tanımlanan çarpıcı bir ekümenik[1] [birleştirici/kapsayıcı] yöntem kullanıyordu.
