What is to be done with the state? How does one's assessment of the
state relate to socialist strategy? Is the state merely a committee
for managing the common affairs of the whole bourgeoisie? Is it
entirely captured by industry, or factions of capital, or does it
operate independently? Team Advantage convenes to discuss theories
of the state, and explains how state theory ultimately informs the
approach one takes to social transformation.
