Marxist Society

Welcome to the UCL Marxist Society! Our aim is to educate ourselves in Marxist theory, campaign to build the forces of Marxism, and, ultimately, to struggle for socialism. We host weekly discussion meetings, lectures and debates on history, politics, economics and philosophy from a Marxist perspective, as well as reading groups, where we study classic works of Marxism, and film screenings. But we’re far from being just a discussion club: as a student society, we aim to intervene in the political life of the campus and of the wider student and labour movements. In 2019/20, our members campaigned for a Corbyn-led Labour government in power on a socialist programme, and went doorknocking and phonebanking in marginal seats around London. We also got involved in the UCU strikes, standing in solidarity with striking lecturers and against marketisation of education, as well as the ongoing struggles of precarious workers on campus organised in the IWGB. We have also been involved in many other protests and rallies, standing in solidarity with workers and young people fighting exploitation and oppression, such as the Black Lives Matter movement, A-Level students' protests, climate strikes, and more.We are officially affiliated to the Marxist Student Federation, which unites and co-ordinates the Marxist societies on a national level.
