Socialism Series Episode 1: The Conspiracy of Equals
Added 2020-12-22 18:25:35 +0000 UTCHello gang.
This is a new bonus series that aims to walk through the history of socialist thought one podcast episode at a time. It is quite an ambitious project and who knows at what point it will be completed if ever. But if you are interested in socialism -- including those who know nothing about it and want an introduction into it that anyone should be able to follow -- then give it a go.
The first episode starts at the chronological beginning of the socialist canon, with the writings of Gracchus Babeuf and Sylvain Marechal of the Conspiracy of Equals in France in 1796 and 1797.
