Fascistic candidates and ideas seem to reap the fruits of social unrest everywhere. With her usual thought-provoking and unyielding insights, Houria Bouteldja shows how the history of the left explains this conundrum and how we can overcome it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing from Black radical and decolonial Marxism, she shows that by privileging white constituencies, unions and left parties laid the foundations for a racial contract that binds workers and the poor to the state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, there may still be a way out of this trap. Uniting ‘rednecks’ (the white working class) and ‘barbarians’ (the racially oppressed), requires a project of popular sovereignty, where national identity is transformed through revolutionary love. Looking to the future, Bouteldja imagines antiracism as a redemptive struggle aimed not only at rehabilitating marginalized communities but also at redefining white dignity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pluto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44969707831551,"sku":"9780745349558","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780745349558_s600x595.jpg?v=1780942037","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780745349558","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
