The formation of the Hague Group ensures that the world won’t forget Israel’s crimes in Gaza — nor can Israeli war criminals evading justice, writes Ronnie Kasrils.
Labour’s plan for growth — with deregulation and corporate-driven projects at its core — runs the risk of deepening inequality and handing over national infrastructure to private profit.
Finland’s Left Alliance is countering the far right by rejecting austerity and championing workers’ rights and climate action. Grace Blakeley sits down with its leader, Li Andersson, to discuss the lessons for the European left.
After a plant in Israel was closed for allowing grave levels of pollution, it was moved to the occupied West Bank — where it ruins the land, spoils crops, and poisons Palestinian workers today.
The authoritarian socialist regimes of the twentieth century tried to rescue people from ‘kitchen slavery’ through communal eateries. In Poland, they survive and thrive.
A new book rediscovers lessons from Black Panther survival programmes, solidarity networks of crisis-era Greece and the Occupy Sandy disaster relief efforts — and asks whether impending climate catastrophe means we should stop waiting and start doing.

More than simply keeping picket lines going, providing food to workers in dispute is a form of collectivism that has shaped the trade union movement.
