What a shameful piece! "Progressive Patriotism" in Russia can only mean
pro-imperialist social-patriotism. Unsurpringly these "left-wing"
authors (the RSD has connections to the Mandelite "Fourth
International") write more than 4,400 words - but not a single word
about Chechnya or Syria where the peope suffer particularly cruelly
under the "Russkij Mir"!
Those interested might want to take a look to chapter XVIII of my book
“Anti-Imperialism in the Age of Great Power Rivalry” where I briefly
dealt with this organization.

Maxim Edwards. LeftEast publishes this text not by way of unreserved
endorsement but rather in an effort to initiate a debate about leftist
strategy. In our editorial discussion at least, it generated plenty of
questions: Do we need to limit our imagination of political community
to the form of the nation-state? Can we meaningfully expect to control
the meaning of the notoriously shape-shifting ideology of nationalism?
Hasn’t the progressive patriot niche in Russia been already occupied
by forces that are not all that progressive, ranging from the
Communist Party of the Russian Federation to red conservatives
(kraskony) on- and off-line? How applicable is the authors’ version of
progressive patriotism beyond Russia, or put another way, what has
been the experience of leftist political formations based on it in
Hungary (the Fourth Republic) or Latin America?Some of these questions
<http://www.facebook.com/vishchenko/posts/10156854911296516>have
already been debated on Russian-language social media. What we hope to
do with this translation is to broaden the debate around Kirill and
Oleg’s very important and clearly articulated strategy proposal./
