Ralph Miliband and Parliamentary Socialism

RALPH MILIBAND AND PARLIAMENTARY SOCIALISM
Friday 25th November 2011, London School of Economics
This conference marks the 50th anniversary of Ralph Miliband’s Parliamentary Socialism – a critique of the Labour Party that shaped a generation of scholars and activists. The book argues that Labour’s belief in the centrality of parliamentary politics often undermined the very movements that were needed to bring about real change. With protest on the rise, and Labour seeking a new way forward, the conference aims to reassess Miliband’s arguments and their contemporary relevance.

Speakers include Tariq Ali, Robin Blackburn, Hilary Wainwright and Leo Panitch
