Zones of Proletarian Development (by Mastaneh Shah-Shuja) is an
attempt to theorise the anti-capitalist movement from a
neo-Vygotskian perspective. Using Marx, Vygotsky, Bakhtin and
Activity Theory it analyses a series of proletarian activities
including recent May Day celebrations in London, carnivalesque
football riots in Iran, the anti-poll-tax rebellion and the anti-war
movement. It concludes by looking at past and current proletarian
organisations and makes a number of proposals for future modes of
organising conducive to radical consciousness and autonomous activity.
