Has the Giant Awoken?
• Socialism and Feminism

by David Mandel | March 12, 2014 Let's begin with Prime Minister Stephen Harper's version. One can think what one likes about deposed Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich, but his election in 2012 was recognized as legitimate by international observers and, after a certain hesitation, by the defeated candidate, Yulia Timoshenko. by Susan George | March 11, 2014 The AlterSummit has decided to centre its work in 2014 around three key themes: 1. The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership or TTIP [the EU-USA trade agreement seeking to integrate the two economies]. 2. The Troika and the European Union's Politics of Austerity 3. The Rise of the Far Right. by Steve Ellner | March 10, 2014 The slant of Venezuela's private media and the international media on what is happening in Venezuela is clear: the government is responsible for the violence. In the first place, it is said, government-ordered gunmen are shooting at peaceful demonstrators and the violence generated by the opposition is just a response to the brutality of police and military forces. review by Ernest Tate | March 9, 2014 The years I write about in these pages were indeed heady and optimistic times for socialists, especially as we neared the latter part of the Sixties. Many of us even began to toss around the idea of "socialism in our time" because the political conditions seemed to be very promising as the ruling classes in many countries appeared to be losing whatever little moral authority they possessed over people. by Justin Podur | March 9, 2014 I met Ali Mustafa a long time ago, when he was one of the younger activists in Students Against Israeli Apartheid (SAIA). I was not so old as I am now but Ali's energy and anger made me feel my age then. Ali was no single-issue activist. He spent a summer working (as an intern I think) with the Movimento Sem Terra (MST) in Brazil, a movement of landless peasants. That was how he did things. He wanted to go, be in it.
