        panel discussion between

        Jan Breman, Melissa Gordon, Massimiliano Mollona, and Bev Skeggs

        27 February 2015

      3. This panel considers the construction of the people by looking at issues of precarity and class fragmentation from feminist and postcolonial perspectives, while weaving in views from art and political economy. By looking at the generalized condition of dispossession of contemporary capitalism as a form of radical exclusion—but also an avenue towards new possibilities—the panel asks: What are the future forms of class recomposition and collective engagement of the people in contemporary Europe?
