How radiant is the past? Workers’ struggles for democracy and transitions from socialism to capitalism in the late 20th century
One of Burawoy’s most innovative contributions is his theorization of labor politics under “actually existing socialism” of the 20th century. This theory argues that the structure of socialist production politics disposes workers to stage struggles demanding democratic visions of socialism – a dynamic of what Burawoy calls “immanent critique” under socialism. Unlike many of his other contributions, this theory has received scant attention from sc…

One decade ago, Bo Xilai's 'Chongqing Model' was making headlines. Liberal commentators generally saw it as an expansion of authoritarian state power, while many on the left welcomed it as a counterpoint to China's capitalist turn. This essay examines what the model was really about, what it said more broadly about contemporaryChinese politics, and its afterlives under Xi Jinping
Leninists in a Chinese Factory
