Howie Hawkins, long time Green Party organizer and its most recent US presidential candidate, revisits the Commune’s influence on Green conceptions of grass-roots democracy before examining its echo in the besieged Rojava (North and East Syria). Not oblivious to the geostrategic challenges that Rojava creates for the global antiimperialist left, Hawkins focuses on the internal practices of the movement. Following Murray Bookchin, Hawkins implores activists to democratize the grass roots and rebuild movements with a municipal focus. He notes that longstanding obstacles to democracy prevalent at the state and federal levels of governance are formidable but not as effective at the local level. As such, Hawkins argues that – more than principle – grass-roots democracy is themost practical politics available to Greens under present political conditions. If Hawkins is animated by the political–strategic impasse facing the Greens as a third party in a hostile political context, Gustave Massiah is similarly inspired to understand the Commune’s lessons for the Alterglobalization movement, itself confronting early promise but an uncertain trajectory, one reflected in World Social Forum process. Turning to its social content, Massiah draws connections between, on the one hand the Commune’s working-class character and cross-class alliances and, on the other hand, the complex bloc of actors constituting the Alterglobalization movement. While prominent and central, the latter-day working class finds its concerns, expressions, networks and concrete challenges overlapping, articulated, woven in and resonating with broader civilizational questions including the","PeriodicalId":40061,"journal":{"name":"Socialism and Democracy","volume":"68 1","pages":"170 - 171"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83182872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But crisis does not necessarily lead to revolution. Over the last months, diverse movements, rallying under the banner #BlackLivesMatter, outraged by repression and exhausted by forced isolation, have stood up to militarized cops in every U.S. state, knowing that doing so risks horrific outcomes – losing an eye to a rubber bullet or gas canister, contracting the coronavirus, even death. And yet these protests have spread globally, with massive demonstrations in dozens of cities over five continents. This is a time for guarded optimism and bold mobilization. Caught in the moment of rebellion but constrained by a deadly pandemic as well as by the limits of present Left political capacities, we ask, How should socialists respond to these re-emerging social movements? In what spirit should we engage the unfolding debates and contests on the streets and in the voting booths? Four strategic considerations stand out: (1) the need for coordinated mass organization; (2) new opportunities for synthesis around race and class; (3) the exposed weakness of capitalist state institutions and ideology; and (4) the fundamentally international character of the crisis.","PeriodicalId":40061,"journal":{"name":"Socialism and Democracy","volume":"64 1","pages":"166 - 169"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89408597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Marxist Literary Criticism Today, unlike some previous introductions, does not take the occasion to covertly revise the tradition according to the point of view or sect of the author by setting down slanted foundational assumptions. Instead, Foley’s stated aim is to use the collectively produced, widely accepted “building blocks [that] have been supplied by earlier practitioners in the Marxist tradition.” This is an unapologetic (and, admittedly, “polemical”) “return to orthodoxy” (xvii–xviii). However, the goal of the book is in the present as we look toward the classless future. The author intends to demonstrate the current relevance of Marxism as a lens that defines the horizon of our possible advances, a total worldview, not just another literary theory (88). The title’s “Today” accurately reflects this emphasis on the contemporary. Foley’s most compelling arguments for the applicability of Marxism to contemporary critical tasks are enriched by the evidence, throughout, of decades spent putting the theoretical tools of historical materialism into practice as a teacher of college literature. For example, an intermittent series of inset boxes responds substantially to frequently asked questions, objections, or alternative explanations heard in the classroom.

Scotland’s Independence and the Poetry of Hugh MacDiarmid 苏格兰独立与休·麦克迪亚米德诗歌

In Ireland, the pro-independence republican Sinn Fein, the second biggest party in the country, is calling for a vote on Ulster’s split from the United Kingdom and reunification with Southern Ireland. Independence is in the air and there is now a real prospect of the break-up of imperial Britain. At the same time, the Left in Scotland is still divided over the issue of independence. The clash of opinion in Scotland is certainly understandable given the deep-seated scepticism about the radical credentials of the SNP who have previously promoted neoliberal policies, not least with regard to Scotland’s rich North Sea oil and gas reserves. The ongoing crisis in relation to Brexit and the COVID pandemic has also deepened this process of political, social and economic fragmentation. I want therefore to situate this debate about national self-determination in the context of some classic Marxist interventions on the question. The discussion will also be linked to the figure of Hugh MacDiarmid (1892–1978), Scotland’s most controversial modernist poet, whose combination of communist and nationalist engagement will hopefully help throw a clearer literary and political light on the troubled relationship between Scotland and England. While European Marxism has been generally sensitive to the rights of small nations, it still seems necessary to clarify some of the important ideological distinctions between bourgeois and working-class national liberation. Taken together, these different threads provide a sustained argument about the need to support Scottish independence, much in the same way as the cause of Irish independence has been part of the left political agenda in Britain and elsewhere since the time of Marx.","PeriodicalId":40061,"journal":{"name":"Socialism and Democracy","volume":"42 1","pages":"79 - 91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83810188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

China’s Threat to Global Capitalism: Nationalist Nonsense 中国对全球资本主义的威胁:民族主义的无稽之谈

In the US, it is common for Republicans and Democrats to compete over who takes the toughest stand against China. But now there is a constant uproar over trade, technology, investments, and military issues, enough to disrupt aspects of globalization. Chinese investments in the US and Europe have run into roadblocks. Trade issues have upset the free flow of commodities and supplies. Attacks against Huawei are slowing down the expansion of 5G technology. And China’s grand strategy for expanding global infrastructure is viewed with suspicion and draws accusations of colonialism. But underneath all the rhetoric and attacks, the transnational capitalist class (TCC) keeps investing across borders and into China. Behind the policy shifts is a crisis of legitimacy for global capitalism. The social divisions resulting from decades of neoliberal globalization have exploded into view. Deeply shaken by the 2008 economic crisis and facing deep social problems from COVID-19, Western capitalism needs an enemy other than itself. China, the convenient “Other,” offers the best target. For the majority of the TCC. the preferred path forward is negotiations through transnational institutions, without disruption to cross-border flows of capital and goods. On the other hand, political elites tasked with maintaining legitimacy with an angry population have pursued nationalism as a politically convenient strategy. The resulting contradictions are causing substantial instability for global capitalism. Schooled in Marxism, the political framework of the Chinese leadership leads it to expect the US state to implement policies of the","PeriodicalId":40061,"journal":{"name":"Socialism and Democracy","volume":"38 1","pages":"92 - 115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85065281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
