Which “blind spots” in the thought of the classics of socialist thought caused the neglect of democracy in the ranks of the left movement?
How did the left divide into two groups of “authoritarians” and “developers of democracy” during its evolution in different parts of the world?
On which side did the left in Iran, in its dominant aspect, stand and why? Were pro-democracy leftists in Iran in any way related to Arabs?
What is the path of the left in today’s Iran?
How and where is socialism viewed among the left of Iran?
What is the status of critical thought among Iranian socialists?
On May 31, we will discuss these and other questions in a event with Alireza Behtoui.
