Today's
class struggles are increasingly taking place in cities and
urbanization will play a key role in social conflicts to come, says
Marxist and social theorist David Harvey in an interview with Spiegel Online. Harvey has been teaching Karl Marx's Capital for over 40 years. In his latest book Seventeen Contradictions and the End of Capitalism
he seeks to understand the contradictions of capital and shows why the
economic engine of capitalism should be replaced, and with what.

The Knight's Move
Survey season 2014-2015
is a series of lectures by eminent
international speakers who stand out by their unusual, enlightening and
inspirational visions concerning the city, urbanity, the public domain,
and community. Just as the knight moves in an atypical and unusual way
across the chessboard, Stroom Den Haag likewise wants to cut across all
disciplines and thus stimulate rethinking the city.
For the 2014-2015 series Stroom Den Haag invited as partners: Lectoraat Art & Public Space (LAPS) and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. Two of the lectures will also take place at Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
Media partners of The Knight's Move 2014-2015 are The Pop-Up City and Open!
The Knight's Move lectures are made possible by Creative Industries Fund NL and the Haagse Bluf Fonds.
