  • The Proof is in the Pudding: A Few Comments on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics

    Anyone interested in socialism in the twenty-first century must take into account what is happening in China seriously. It’s future economic supremacy will either shape global capitalism, which socialists worldwide will have to respond to or the future of socialism will be determined by China’s planned transformation toward a socialist economy          […]

  • Western elites fear a ‘globalised intifada’ because they are its targets, not Jews

    Western elites fear a ‘globalised intifada’ because they are its targets, not Jews

    Western establishments’ fear of the phrase “Globalise the intifada” has little to do with any danger supposedly posed to Jewish populations from its use. The threat is posed by the slogan’s central idea, not by some specific target. “Globalise the intifada!” is the modern equivalent of “Power to the people!” – a slogan long used […]

  • Defend Popular Will, Struggle for People(s)-Centered Human Rights!

    This past Human Rights Day illuminated what Gaza has relegated to the dustbin of history: the oxymoron of “Western values and human rights.” Western civilization stands as a living negation of human rights, a truth illustrated by the ongoing atrocities in Palestine and the brutal legacies of Western intervention in Haiti, Congo, and Sudan. The […]

  • Where is it Leading?

    Note: This article was being completed just before the attack on a Jewish holiday celebration at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia. A previous article ─ The Radical Left Meets the Extreme Right: Allied against Jewish support for Israel ─ remained unfinished. The connection between hostility to apartheid Israel and the strengthening of the extreme right, […]

  • The Russian Wolf Speaks: Alexander Dugin and the Fourth Political Theory

    The Russian Wolf Speaks: Alexander Dugin and the Fourth Political Theory

    Rise of the populist right In two previous articles I pointed out that the 18th century political spectrum makes no sense in the world today and it hasn’t made sense for at least the past 10 years. Today the leading forces against global monopoly and finance capital in the West are coming from the right […]

  • The North-South Project Reclaims Human Rights as People(s)-Centered

    December 10th, International Human Rights Day, represents one year since the launch of the North-South Project for People(s)-Centered Human Rights. The North-South Project seeks to address the contradiction of the human rights idea being co-opted and instrumentalized as a weapon of white supremacist colonial domination and exploitation. The PCHR frame emerged to counter that. Rooted […]

  • BRICS Will Fail to Deliver Anti-imperialism

    BRICS Will Fail to Deliver Anti-imperialism

    Multipolarity — the idea that there are more than one decisive economic actors in the global economy — is an important fact. More than anything else, the rise of the People’s Republic of China demonstrates that fact. The size and rate of growth, along with the expansive Belt and Road Initiative, establishes that the PRC […]

  • The Great Revolutionary Divide

    The Great Revolutionary Divide

    Europe, mid-1800s: Two men stood at the center of a storm that would shape socialism’s future. Karl Marx, a German-born philosopher, believed in seizing the state (central government) and wielding its machinery to crush the ruling class. To him, power was a tool, not a curse. Mikhail Bakunin, a Russian anarchist strategist, saw it differently. […]

  • People’s Response to APEC: Breakdown or Breakthrough?

    People’s Response to APEC: Breakdown or Breakthrough?

    The Doomsday Clock advances 10 seconds closer to midnight. Global temperatures rise beyond 1.5°C. Forests burn. Hurricanes intensify. Meanwhile, countries produce bombs and bullets, the New Cold War inches us closer to nuclear annihilation, and US President Donald Trump extorts the world. The response of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) is to draw from the […]

  • Review of No Neutrals There: US Labor, Zionism, and the Struggle for Palestine

    Review of No Neutrals There: US Labor, Zionism, and the Struggle for Palestine

    In author Jeff Schuhrke’s own words: This book tells the story of why and how US labor became one of Israel’s most stalwart defenders and generous benefactors through the Zionist State’s tumultuous and controversial history. Importantly,  this is also the story of  Palestinian trade unionists and various  rank-and-file union members – including Arab-Americans, anti-Zionist Jews, […]
