What’s happened to Socialist Internationalism? Anna Paterson finds disturbing signs around the Corbyn leadership of an insular political project >From Germany to France to the UK, some parts of the left see clawing back the >sovereignty of the nation state and curbing immigration as key to protecting >“our own workers and communities” and rolling back neoliberalism. These ideas >are now more than ever at odds with the reality of global capitalism, and the >limits of what nation states can achieve in isolation. In going down this left >nationalist path, left leaders in Europe and the UK are losing touch not only >with the core values of socialism, but also with progressive grassroots >movements as well as their own supporters. Critically, they are also feeding >into racist and divisive narratives about immigrant workers which can only >benefit the far right. https://www.chartist.org.uk/%EF%BB%BFthe-danger-of-left-nationalism-in-the-uk-and-europe/ Andrew Coates _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: https://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
