The Global Left in a Multipolar World: Towards a Planetary Politics of Justice and Survival explores how a transformative global left politics might be advanced in the context of the emerging multipolar world order and the urgent climate crisis. The book argues that the era of the purely national left is over. Instead, the twenty first century needs a new global left that will address the critical four elements of class, imperialism, ecology and democracy in a unified way, and that will combine ideas and interventions at a multiplicity of scales from the local to the global. Chapters written by leading left scholars from the global North and the global South explore different aspects of contemporary left thought and practice and articulate different visions of potential global lefts. They offer radical and inspiring suggestions for global left programs that can tackle both the injustices of neoliberal globalisation as well as the new threats from an advancing global right, continued neo-imperialism and the increasingly critical climate-ecological planetary crisis. Taken together, they offer a compelling vision of a global left that seeks justice - for labour, for the global South and for oppressed peoples everywhere - and survival - for everyone on our warming planet - based in and secured by a truly democratic planetary politics. The Global Left in a Multipolar World injects new energy into left thinking and shows how the left can move from a politics of resistance towards a politics of alternatives. It will be of great interest to students and scholars of global politics, international relations and sociology and to left-wing activists seeking a better world.
