It’s a Soros funded organization based out of NYC, run by hedge fund people, they certainly aren’t pro communism or Marxism, but they have a lot of videos advocating for unusually things when compared to typical neocon and neolib economix thinkers and institutes in the west, in particular they have a pro-china tilt, I don’t really know what to think about them and digging hasn’t helped at all, anyone have any decent resources or videos about them? Or suggestions for where to look?
I don’t know how reputable they are, but these two video from their youtube caught my attention:
How Economists Invented Austerity & Paved the Way to Fascism
Development, Climate Change & Capitalism
They’re both very critical of capitalism, perhaps even explicitly Marxist, as in the second video Ying Chen refers to her paper How Has Ecological Imperialism Persisted? A Marxian Critique of the Western Climate Consensus.

Rewatching them, they’re both explicitly marxist.
