Communities of resistance: writings on black struggles for socialism

By A. Sivanandan

This series of powerful interventions covers many of the issues which confronted radical politics in the 1980s.

A. Sivanandan

Inner-city uprisings, the demand for Black Sections in the Labour Party, local government anti-racism, the move to a common European market. Each of the essays acts as a critical reaffirmation of socialist politics as the context for questions of race and resistance. And the left itself is under scrutiny here, from a black perspective.

Includes:

All that melts into air is solid: the hokum of "New Times"
RAT and the degradation of black struggle
New circuits of imperialism
Race, class and state in post-colonial societies: Sri Lanka, a case study
An interview with the author

250pp., ISBN 0 86091 514 X, 1990, VERSO
