Chris Cutrone and Douglas Lain discuss an essay from Cutrone's book "Marxism and Politics." The article is entitled "Chinoiserie: A Critique of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA’s 'New Synthesis.'" In this episode of the Cutrone Zone Chris explains just why the 2010 "communist turn" was a repeat of the failure of the New Left even as it was a regression from the New Left into counterrevolutionary reaction.Purchase Marxism and Politics https://sublationmedia.com/product/marxism-and-politics-essays-on-critical-theory-and-the-party-2006-2024/Support Sublation Media on Patreonhttps://patreon.com/dietsoap

The Diet Soap podcast began in 2009 in response to the economic crisis of 2008. Since then it has gone through many transformations, including becoming the podcast for a critical theory imprint out of the UK. Today the Diet Soap podcast is running under its original name for Sublation Media.Sublation Media includes a book publishing effort for critical theory and left politics, a magazine that covers current events and theoretical issues, youtube videos on theory and politics, and finally the Diet Soap podcast. The podcast is where we continue to interrogate the left and each other while having a good time.
