The global recession has had political consequences across the world, but nowhere greater than in the periphery of Europe. In response, a massive wave of resistance has erupted across the continent. Europe in Revolt! examines the key parties and figures behind this insurgency, with insider coverage of both the roots of the social crisis and the radicals seeking to reverse it.

The remarkable run of self-proclaimed "democratic socialist" Bernie Sanders for president of the United States has prompted-for the first time in decades and to the shock of many-a national conversation about socialism. A New York Times poll in late November found that a majority of Democrats had a favorable view of socialism, and in New Hampshire in February, more than half of Democratic voters under 35 told the Boston Globe they call themselves socialists. It's unclear exactly what socialism means to this generation, but couple with the ascendancy of longtime leftwinger Jeremy Corbyn to the leadership of the Labour Party in the UK, it's clear there's a historic, generational shift underway.This book steps into this moment to offer a clear, accessible, informative, and irreverent guide to socialism for the uninitiated. Written by young writers from the dynamic magazine Jacobin, alongside several distinguished scholars, The ABCs of Socialism answers basic questions, including ones that many want to know but might be afraid to ask ("Doesn't socialism always end up in dictatorship?", "Will socialists take my Kenny Loggins records?"). Disarming and pitched to a general readership without sacrificing intellectual depth, this will be the best introduction an idea whose time seems to have come again.

If the American foreign policy establishment is a grand citadel, Henry Kissinger is the specter haunting its dusty hallways. For half a century, he was an omnipresent figure in war rooms and at press briefings, dutifully shepherding the American empire through successive attempts at expansion. For multiple generations of antiwar activists, Kissinger personified the depravity of the US war machine. The Good Die Young assesses a career too frequently applauded in essays from respected scholars and journalists such as Gerald Horne, Carolyn Eisenberg, and Chip Gibbons, with an introduction from Bancroft Prize-winner Greg Grandin.The world Kissinger wrought is one we live in today, where ideal investment conditions are generated from the barrel of a gun. Today, global capitalism and United States hegemony are underwritten by the most powerful military ever devised. Any political vision worth fighting for must promise an end to the cycle of never-ending wars afflicting the world in the twenty-first century. Breaking that cycle means placing the twin evils of capitalism and imperialism in our crosshairs.The book follows Kissinger's fiery trajectory across the globe, covering Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. More than any other public figure, the life and career of this man illustrate the links between capitalism, empire, and the feedback loop of endless conflict that plagues us today.

Capitalism isn't working but is there really an alternative? A provocative new book lays out one - a system where workers control every lever of production and competitive markets and state planning coexist, side by side. The result is a socialism worthy of the twenty-first century. One part economic theory, one part history, and one part manifesto, The Blueprint offers a path forward for an emerging Left that seeks not just to tame capitalism, but to overcome it. Sunkara, Beggs, and Burgis point the way to a better, more just economy. This is a plan for the future of socialism. The Blueprint is a plan that can work.

Nyliberalismen krackelerar, men vad kommer att ersätta den? Det globala politiska, ekologiska, ekonomiska och sociala sammanbrottet – som symboliserades men inte orsakades av Donald Trumps seger i presidentvalet – har slutgiltigt grusat föreställningen om att den nyliberala kapitalismen gynnar det stora flertalet. Nancy Fraser utforskar hur denna föreställning under det sena 1900-talet konstruerades utifrån två grundkategorier: erkännande (vem förtjänar rättigheter?) och fördelning (vem förtjänar en inkomst?). När dessa principer började erodera uppstod nya former av populistisk politik, både till höger och till vänster. Den populistiska vågen är enligt Fraser symptom på en mer omfattande kris för nyliberalismens hegemoni, ett ögonblick då, med Gramscis ord, ”det gamla dör och det nya inte kan födas”. I sitt efterföljande samtal med Bhaskar Sunkara, grundare och utgivare av tidskriften Jacobin, menar Fraser att vi nu har en möjlighet att bygga en progressiv populism i form av en emancipatorisk samhällskraft med anspråk på att etablera en ny hegemoni.
