SUMMARY:The European Radical Left: Movements and Parties Since the 1960s
DESCRIPTION:with author Giorgos Charalambous\nIs today’s left really new? How has the European radical left evolved?\nGiorgos Charalambous answers these questions by looking at three moments of rapid political change – the late 1960s to late 1970s; the turn of the millennium; and post-2008. He challenges the conventional understanding of a ‘new left’\, drawing out continuities with earlier movements and parties. Charalambous examines the ‘Long ’68’\, symbolized by the May uprisings in France\, which saw the rise of new left forces and the widespread criticism by younger radical activists of traditional communist and socialist parties. He puts this side by side with the turn of the millennium when the Global Justice Movement rose to prominence and changed the face of the international left\, and also the period after the financial crash of 2008 and the rise of anti-austerity politics which initiated the most recent wave of new left parties such as Podemos in Spain and Syriza in Greece. \nWith a unique ‘two-level’ perspective\, Charalambous approaches the left through both social movements and party politics\, looking at identities\, rhetoric and organization\, and bringing a fresh new approach to radical history\, as well as assessing challenges for both activists and scholars. \nThis book is available to download through the Open Access program. \nGiorgos Charalambous is Assistant Professor of Political Science at the Department of Politics and Governance\, University of Nicosia. He is also the co-convenor of the Left Radicalism Specialist Group at the Political Studies Association. Charalambous is the author of European Integration and the Communist Dilemma (Ashgate\, 2013)\, and has co-edited Party-Society Relations in Cyprus (Routledge\, 2016) and Left Radicalism and Populism in Europe (Routledge\, 2019).

SUMMARY:Everyone a Legislator with author Michael Denning
DESCRIPTION:Aspects of Gramsci’s work for the 21st Century: A presentation and discussion with Michael Denning\n“Perhaps Gramsci’s political science is … a “necessary expression of his time\, the short twentieth century\, an era now ended\, the ae of three words divided between Fordist capitalism\, bureaucratic communism and the post-colonial settlements of decolonization. If this is true\, is there a future for Gramsci’s legacy?” —Michael Denning \nIn the introduction to the May/June\, 2021 New Left Review is this summary of Michael Denning’s essay\, “Everyone a Legislator”: “What is the principal legacy today of Gramsci’s writing on politics. Often taken to be a theory of the party as a “modern prince” derived from Machiavelli\, can this still be so in an epoch when political parties are everywhere in decline? This year in the May June issue of New Left Review\, Michael Denning reasons that what now matters in Gramsci’s work is his theory of organizing and a premonitory form of democratic legislation.” \nThe essay is available online at https://newleftreview.org/issues/ii129. \nThe image used here\, Verso la città futura (toward a future city)\, was painted on the side of an apartment complex on via Canova in Florence by artist Jorit. Underlying the painting\, inscribed into the 213 meter wall is the following from Gramsci’s Prison Notebooks: “Even when everything is or seems lost\, one must calmly get back to work\, starting from the beginning…The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old dies and the new cannot be born”. \nMichael Denning is the author of Noise Uprising: The Audiopolitics of a World Musical Revolution (2015); Culture in the Age of Three Worlds (2004); The Cultural Front: The Laboring of American Culture in the Twentieth Century (1997); Mechanic Accents: Dime Novels and Working Class Culture in America (1987); and Cover Stories: Narrative and Ideology in the British Spy Thriller (1987). Michael teaches American Studies at Yale University\, where he coordinates the Working Group on Globalization and Culture. \n  \nAll events are sliding scale—choose the level at which you choose to contribute to The Marxist Education Project.

SUMMARY:First They Took Rome with author David Broder
DESCRIPTION:How the Populist Right Conquered Italy\n“David Broder has produced an excellent account of what has made modern Italy different but also similar to other Western European states. It begins back in the early 1990s when Italy was once more a pioneer\, in that it was the first Western democracy where an established and stable two-party system collapsed suddenly\, opening the way for a series of new political forces\, labelled populist\, to emerge spectacularly and suddenly.”    — Chris Bambery\, Counterfire \n Many commentators blame Italy’s malaise on cultural ills—pointing to the corruption of public life or a supposedly endemic backwardness. In this reading\, Italy has failed to converge with the neoliberal reforms mounted by other European countries\, leaving it to trail behind the rest of the world. \nFirst They Took Rome offers a different perspective: Italy isn’t failing to keep up with its international peers but farther along the same path of decline they are following. In the 1980s\, Italy boasted the West’s strongest Communist Party; today\, social solidarity is collapsing\, working people feel ever more atomized\, and democratic institutions grow increasingly hollow. \nStudying the rise of forces like Matteo Salvini’s Lega\, this book shows how the populist right drew on a deep well of social despair\, ignored by the liberal center. Italy’s recent history is a warning from the future—the story of a collapse of public life that risks spreading across the West. \nDAVID BRODER is a Rome-based writer and translator. He is the European editor for Jacobin and regularly writes with a focus on Italy\, including in the journal Internazionale. \nVerso has provided the following code (good through November\, 2021) for 50% off of First They Took Rome.
