Engaging Erik Wright: Between Class Analysis and Real Utopias
Engaging Erik Wright: Between Class Analysis and Real Utopias, with essays engaging Erik’s work by a wonderful group of Erik’s former students, colleagues, and friends, is now available from Verso Press.
When the renowned social scientist Erik Olin Wright passed away in 2019 at the height of his intellectual powers, he left behind an unfinished project intended to forge a connection between class analysis and real utopias. In taking up this project, the essays in this volume pay tribute to his generative theory, crystalline thinking, inspirational teaching, and personal generosity.
