How successful are social movements and left parties at achieving
social and political change? How, if at all, can movements and
parties work together to challenge existing hierarchies? Is the
political left witnessing a revival in contemporary politics? This
book highlights some of the key achievements of left parties and
protest movements in their goal of challenging different types of
inequality - and considers the ways in which their challenge to
authority and power could be intensified. It combines new
theoretical ideas with rich empirical detail on the debates and
concrete activities undertaken by left parties and protest
movements over a broad historical period, from the early European
labour movement to the recent anti-austerity global protests. The
book will offer unique insight into the broad history and theory of
emancipatory politics; as well as making an important contribution
to ongoing debates between left-leaning academics, researchers and
activists.
