Revolution

Abstract The future for left revolutions is commonly framed as either/or: either we resuscitate the old revolutionary dream of seizing the state and means of production to inaugurate a new order or we accept that revolution is inapt for these times. However, neoliberalism modeled another modality of revolution, one that was exceptionally far-reaching yet entailed a different means of state capture and economic and social transformation. This intervention argues that the Left has much to learn from this recent history.
