Davis, M. - Old Gods, New Enigmas: Marx's Lost Theory

In this collection of essays, Mike Davis explores Marx’s thoughts on two key questions of our time: Who can lead a revolutionary transformation of society? And what is the cause—and solution—of the environmental crisis? Davis searches Karl Marx’s works for a revolutionary paradigm capable of addressing these questions and argues that the history of worker-led uprisings in the late-modern period remains relevant to understanding how today’s “informal proletariat” might gain class consciousness and political agency.


Kaba, M. - We Do This Til We Free Us: Abolitionist Organising and Transforming Justice

In this book, Mariame Kaba explores how ordinary people have the power to collectively free ourselves. With a foreword by Naomi Murakawa and chapters on seeking justice beyond the punishment system, transforming how we deal with harm and accountability, and finding hope in collective struggle for abolition, Kaba’s work is deeply rooted in the relentless belief that we can fundamentally change the world.


Grant, M. - Playing the Whore: The Work of Sex Work

In Playing the Whore, journalist Melissa Gira Grant argues for an overhaul in the way we think about sex work. Based on ten years of writing and reporting on the sex trade, and grounded in her experience as an organizer, advocate, and former sex worker, Playing the Whore dismantles pervasive myths about sex work, criticizes both conditions within the sex industry and its criminalization, and argues that separating sex work from the "legitimate" economy only harms those who perform sexual labor.


Figueroa Clark, V. - Salvador Allende: Revolutionary Democrat

Victor Figueroa Clark guides us through Allende's life and political project, answering some of the most frequently asked questions. Was he a revolutionary or a reformist? A bureaucrat or inspirational democrat? Figueroa Clark argues that Allende and the Popular Unity Party created a unique fusion which was both revolutionary and democratic. Forty years on, and with left governments back in power across Latin America, this book looks back at the man and the process in order to draw vital lessons for the left in Latin America and around the world today.
