A Democratic Socialist Future
From: The Fire and the Ashes
$1.60
In his concluding chapter, the author surveys the political present, and notes that narratives about elections being won by appealing to the "mushy centre" are disproven by the success of Brexit and Donald Trump. He suggests that the path to power is through rebuilding the mass labour movement, bold socialist agendas, and identifying the problem in class terms.
