Now, as we are entangled in conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan the Mid-East's political and...

Un siglo corto, el XX, que fue en gran medida el siglo de las izquierdas hasta que el hundimiento del comunismo en 1991 zanjó de un plumazo la oposición entre izquierda "proletaria" e izquierda "burguesa".
La recomposición de la izquierda, hoy en día, ¿es una posibilidad real o una quimera? Este...
