Socialism: Tragedy of an Idea
Thursday, April 29, 2021
9:30 am – 11:00 am
EDT/GMT-4
Online Event
9:30 am New York l 3:30 pm Vienna
On Thursday, April 29, OSUN and CEU invite members to an event based on a recent book by Lajos Bokros and in the tradition of the CEU University-Wide Seminars. "Socialism: Tragedy of an Idea" invites scholars from different academic disciplines across OSUN to discuss a topic of common interest from different intellectual, theoretical and methodological perspectives.
The seminar will address the questions:
How was "socialism" understood, in particular from the perspective of political economy, by some of the most remarkable scholars who have studied it before and after the fall of communist regimes of Central and Eastern Europe?
How have scholars who have both studied and "lived" socialism, before and after the fall of the Berlin Wall, understood it?
What is socialism and what is freedom?
What is the relationship between economic system and political regime?
How has socialism worked outside the communist camp of Central and Eastern Europe.
