Summary, etc |
The 20th Century was pre-eminently an age of revolutions - in Russia, China, Cuba, and numerous other countries - that fundamentally transformed the nature of politics and social arrangements. As we enter a new century, has it got harder for revolutions to occur in a world of far-flung corporations and commodity chains, global cultural forms, instantaneous communication, and (with the collapse of the Soviet bloc) a new unipolar world? In the current post-Cold War conjuncture, increasingly characterised by the contested phenomenon of globalization, the following questions arise: Is the era of revolution over? If so, why? And if not, what might the revolutions of the future look like? In this volume, a number of eminent historians, sociologists and political scientists who have spent their lives studying revolutionary processes reflect on and debate these questions. The face of transformative politics in the future and the directions of social change rest in large measure on the answers. The approach in this volume is both future-oriented and boldly speculative, as well as past- and present-oriented and analytic. A range of recent cases are taken up, from the intensely backward-looking movement of the Taliban in Afghanistan to the magical revolution in progress in Chiapas. This volume constitutes a state of the art assessment of the conditioning factors shaping the incidence and forms of radical political change in the era of globalization. A unique feature is the inclusion of thematic discussions by the participants on the nature of globalization, political agency and upcoming visions of revolutionary futures. |
