Description: Connecting some of the more remarkable events of the last decade--including the rioting in Oaxaca and in the outskirts of Paris and the modern crises of neoliberalism--this critical analysis suggests new strategies for the progressive Left and that forward-moving change is possible. It examines the concept that movements generally develop at times of acceleration and expansion, but ultimately naturally slow down without consideration of their actual effects--stifling new developments, suppressing the emergence of new forms of politics, or failing to see other possible directions. Global in scope.
