Crisis Movement Strategy, the Greek Experience, edited by Panijotis Sarturus. This edited volume

grapples with the theoretical, analytical and strategic questions posed by the recent experience

of the radical left in Greece, from extreme austerity to social mobilisation, and the disaster

of Siriza. This experience poses important theoretical and analytical questions regarding

capitalist crisis, public debt, European integration, political crisis,

the new forms of protest and social movements, and the rise of neo-fascist parties.

It also brings forward many pressing questions regarding radical left-wing strategy, relevant

far beyond Greece itself.

Twittering Machine, which we discussed in episode 56, and which is out now from the Indigo Press.
