Vivek Chibber: Consent, Coercion and Resignation: The Sources of Stability in Capitalism

This talk will suggest that the explanation of social stability in capitalism as developed by recent Marxist theory is deeply flawed. Under the influence of a correspondingly flawed reading of Antonio Gramsci, Marxists have argued that the essential problem in capitalism is the generation of ideological consent on the part of the working class, and it is this consent that provides social stability. I will suggest that this argument cannot be found in either Marx or in Gramsci. And in any case even if they had made such an argument, we ought to reject it. The main source of stability is the structural constraints imposed on the working class, and it is these constraints that need to be understood and changed. Marxists need to return to their materialists roots.

Vivek Chibber teaches sociology at the NYU and is an author of many influential studies, including his latest book Postcolonial Theory and the Spectre of Capital.

Vivek Chibber: Pristanak, prisila, rezignacija: izvori stabilnosti u kapitalizmu

Ovo će izlaganje nastojati pokazati da je objašnjenje društvene stabilnosti u kapitalizmu, razvijeno u suvremenim marksističkim teorijama, duboko pogrešno. Pod utjecajem jednako pogrešnog čitanja Antonija Gramscija, marksisti su tvrdili da je esencijalni problem u kapitalizmu stvaranje ideološkog pristanka radničke klase i da taj pristanak osigurava društvenu stabilnost. Pokazat ću da se ovaj argument ne može pronaći ni kod Gramscija ni kod Marxa. A ako su čak negdje i iznijeli, moramo ga odbiti. Glavni izvor stabilnosti su strukturne prisile nametnute radničkoj klasi i upravo se te prisile moraju razumjeti i mijenjati. Marksisti se moraju vratiti svojim materijalističkim korijenima.

Vivek Chibber je profesor sociologije na Sveučilištu New York i autor niza zapaženih studija među kojima se ističe Postcolonial Theory and The Spectre of Capital.
