Your Revolution is No Liberation
Your Revolution is no liberation
During the recent weeks and months a spirited debate developed in different German left wing newspapers and groups about the sense or non-sense, the perspectives and the means and goals of the mobilisation against the G8 summit. Different German and Austrian anti-fascist groups started a campaign to criticise a wrong analysis of capitalism widely spread in the anti-globalisation movement. In the context of this campaign several public discussions and lectures were held, a special webpage was set up but above all reader was published that contains a set of basic texts referring to this problem. This reader is available in German and English and will soon also be published in French in order to spread the debate also across other countries.

Mad Cologne, if you are still here, I just wrote this as a comment to another post:
After looking again at the reader at Greens Engage (see update at top of post)*, I remembered some of the problems with it, particularly the lack of editing. The Postone pieces are clearly scanned text, so the paragraph breaks are missing, some characters have morphed into others, page numbers and headers/footers find their way into the text, etc. Also, some of the texts are not clear about their original sources, which is unhelpful.
However, I am also reminded of how good the reader is. If a second edition comes, hopefully the errors might be corrected. And let’s hope a second edition does come!
