Grace Blakeley, editor of The Futures of Socialism and author of Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation (Repeater, 2019), and Aaron Bastani, author of Fully Automated Luxury Communism, discuss life after lockdown, what kinds of work continue to work, what kinds don't, and the future of work more broadly.
To celebrate 50 years of Verso Books we bring you Verso Live, a new virtual live events programme. We have selected authors to speak on a wide range of subjects including the future of work, what a feminist city might look like, how our virtual spaces have become the ‘new normal’, and how enslaved West Indian women played a distinct role in slave resistance. These events are free and will be live-streamed to Verso’s YouTube and Facebook pages fortnightly on Thursday evenings UK time, as well as being made available to watch after the event has finished.
