“Bowdoin Socialists are seizing the day”
(Op-Ed by Finley Rhys ‘28)
“ ”
Socialism is not a vague alternative to current conditions, but a framework that describes where value comes from and how ownership structures determine the distribution of wealth. It asks who controls production, who benefits from labor and whether democratic principles should extend to the economy.
These are questions about material relations, not just ethical positions about how society should be organized. These questions become deadly when examining contemporary issues: the relationship between AI policy and financialization, the political economy of climate catastrophe, the material conditions underlying migration or how genocide is enabled.
