“…O movimento global de justiça social que emergiu a partir da década de 1990 com os sucessos regionais dos Zapatistas no sul do México formou-se em resposta ao projeto neoliberal de globalização. A Maré Rosa que se seguiu foi o advento de regimes políticos populistas de esquerda na maioria dos países latino-americanos, tendo por base movimentos contra os programas de ajuste estrutural neoliberais promovidos pelo Fundo Monetário Internacional (CHASE-DUNN et al, 2015). Em 2001, o Fórum Social Mundial (FSM) foi fundado como uma reação à exclusividade do neoliberal Fórum Econômico Mundial.…”

“…Todos os 27 temas de movimento utilizados nas pesquisas de opinião foram conectados à rede maior por meio de coativismo, de modo que havia uma única rede ligada, sem subgrupos (CHASE-DUNN e KANESHIRO, 2009). Essa rede multicêntrica era bastante estável em todos os locais de reunião 7 , o que sugere que tem havido uma estrutura semelhante de conexões de rede entre movimentos que são globais em escopo, e que a rede de nível global de movimentos também é muito semelhante à rede que existe entre ativistas do Fórum Social de movimentos de base dentro dos EUA (CHASE-DUNN et al, 2019). O conjunto central de temas de movimento aos quais todos os outros movimentos estavam ligados incluía direitos humanos, antirracismo, ambientalismo, feminismo, paz/antiguerra, política econômica alternativa e anticorporativa.…”

Este artigo assume o desafio de Samir Amin de repensar a questão da organização política global, propondo a construção de uma organização política diagonal para a esquerda global que ligaria redes locais, nacionais e globais, bem como comunidades prefigurativas para coordenar a disputa pelo poder no sistema-mundo durante as próximas décadas do século XXI. O processo do Fórum Social Mundial (FSM) precisa ser reinventado para promover o surgimento de um instrumento capaz de confrontar e disputar com a estrutura de poder global do capitalismo mundial e ajudar as lutas locais e nacionais. Propomos uma abordagem holística para organizar um navio para a esquerda global baseado em lutas por justiça climática, direitos humanos, antirracismo, direitos queer, feminismo, redes de partilha, alianças de paz, retomada das cidades, nacionalismo progressivo, confrontando e derrotando o neofascismo e novas formas de populismo conservador.

“…The global justice movement that emerged in the 1990s with the rise of the Zapatistas in Southern Mexico was a response to the neoliberal globalisation project. The Latin American 'Pink Tide' was composed of leftist-populist political regimes in most of the Latin American countries, based on movements against the neoliberal structural adjustment programmes promoted by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) (Chase-Dunn et al 2015). The World Social Forum (WSF) emerged in 2001 in reaction to the exclusivity of the neoliberal World Economic Forum, providing a venue for popular progressive movements to protect politically excluded people from neoliberalism.…”

F or over three decades the main buzzword of development, international relations and policy making has been 'globalisation' . It is a descriptive concept used to characterise processes underway in the global political economy related to production, trade, finance, technology and labour. It has been an overworked term, sometimes evoking the metaphor of a happy 'global village' in which all countries are equal and in which there is smooth mobility not just of finance and goods, but also of labour and technology. The embrace of globalisation has also promised that all ships will rise as the tides of competition and winds of integration buttress the engines of national economies. Inequality and poverty will all be history in this global market utopia according to the promises and rhetoric of globalisation discourse. Or more poignantly, we would all be Americans and would all have been conscripted to the 'end of history' in which the US standard of liberal democracy was also our common standard. However, the realities of today's global political economy are much more complex. This fifth volume in the Democratic Marxism series seeks to explore the remaking of the global political economy over the past few decades in a world of deepening systemic crises (such as climate change and water crises), redistributions of economic power (with China today the largest economy), the rise of the Brazil-Russia-India-China-South Africa (BRICS) bloc and sharpening global rivalries. In this volume we unpack the new patterns of global power within the context of conjunctural and longer spans of history, the remaking of capitalism and the forms of resistance that are emerging. In short, this volume

“…In Latin America, in the 1980's and the 1990s, the structural adjustment policies of the International Monetary Fund that required austerity and privatization were supported by neoliberal national politicians who attacked labor unions and parties of formal sector workers, but this produced a populist reaction in which progressive politicians were able to gain electoral victories by campaigning against these policies and by mobilizing the residents of the “planet of slums” (Chase‐Dunn et al. ). This phenomenon was called the “Pink Tide.” Regimes based on left‐wing populism emerged in most of the Latin American countries, and Rodrik rightly sees this as a reaction against the neoliberal globalization project.…”

An understanding of the current right-wing national and transnational social movements can benefit from comparing them to the global and national conditions operating during their last appearance in the first half of the twentieth century and by carefully comparing twentieth-century fascism with the neofascist and right-wing populist movements that have been emerging in the twenty-first century. This allows us to assess the similarities and differences, and to gain insights about what could be the consequences of the reemergence of populist nationalism and fascist movements. Our study uses the comparative evolutionary world-systems perspective to study the Global Right from 1800 to the present. We see fascism as a form of capitalism that emerges when the capitalist project is in crisis. World historical waves of right-wing populism and fascism are caused by the cycles of globalization and deglobalization, the rise and fall of hegemonic core powers, long business cycles (the Kondratieff wave), and interactions with both Centrist Liberalism and the Global Left. We consider how crises of the global capitalist system have produced right-wing backlashes in the past, and how a future terminal crisis of capitalism could lead to a reemergence of a new form of authoritarian global governance or a reorganized global democracy in the future.
