مانیفست ضد سرمایه‌داری

by Alex Callinicos, ناصر زرافشان (Translator)

Alex Callinicos analyses the development of the movement, distinguishes between the different political forces within it, and explores the strategic dilemmas - notably over violence and the nation-state - that it increasingly confronts. He argues that the movement is directed against capitalism itself. The logic of competitive accumulation that drives this system is not only increasing global inequality and economic instability, but threatens ecological catastrophe and appalling conflict. To meet the challenge of global capitalism the new protest movement requires, according to Callinicos, a creative synthesis of its own inclusive and dynamic style and the best of the classical Marxist tradition.

[Jack Hunt · Rating 4 out of 5]

In terms of learning about anti capitalism, I didn’t really learn much more than a few YouTube videos would have given. Either way, still a good refresher and a short, yet good, read
