When the Iron Curtain lifted in 1989, it was seen by some as proof
of the final demise of the ideas and aspirations of the radical
left. Not many years passed, however, before the critique of social
inequalities and capitalism was once again a main protest theme of
social movements. This book provides an account of radical left
movements in today's Europe and how they are trying to accomplish
social and political change. The book's international group of
leading experts provide detailed analysis on social movement
organizations, activist groups, and networks that are rooted in the
left-wing ideologies of anarchism, Marxism, socialism, and
communism in both newly democratized post-communist and
longstanding liberal-democratic polities. Through a range of case
studies, the authors explore how radical left movements are
influenced by their situated political and social contexts, and how
contemporary radical left activism differs from both new and old
social movements on one hand, and the activities of radical left
parliamentary parties on the other. Ultimately, this volume
investigates what it means to be 'radical left' in current day
liberal-democratic and capitalist societies after the fall of
European state socialism. This is valuable reading for students and
researchers interested in European politics, contemporary social
movements and political sociology.
