Join us to celebrate The Contested Domain, a new collection of essays by Lise Vogel edited by Kirstin Munro.  A trailblazer of feminist art criticism and social theory in the 1970s, Vogel's unitary theory of exploitation and women’s oppression planted the seeds for contemporary Social Reproduction Theory by insisting that Marxist theory can accommodate not only class, but also race and gender.  

Aaron Jaffe (Associate Professor of Philosophy and Liberal Art, Juilliard), Rachel Schreiber (University Professor, The New School), Robyn Marasco (Henry A and Louise Loeb Professor of Political and Social Science, The New School for Social Research), Alyssa Battistoni (Assistant Professor of Political Science, Barnard) and Kirstin Munro (Assistant Professor of Economics, The New School for Social Research) will discuss the significance of Vogel's contributions and why her ideas remain vital for a new generation of thinkers and activists.
