How might the modern, rather than the human, be recovered as a way of looking at a common inheritance? And why is modernity resistant to being recovered?

Robin Archer is the Director of the Ralph Miliband Programme, LSE.

The Ralph Miliband Programme (@RMilibandLSE) is one of LSE's most prestigious lecture series and seeks to advance Ralph Miliband's spirit of free social inquiry.
