This study investigates the struggle for solidarity between the left in an oppressor nation and rebellions against that nation from the oppressed. The research explores political questions of pro-capitalist classes and opportunism, of euro-centrism and settler colonial privilege amongst groups and entities striving to steer revolutionary resistance.

Thanks for posting this. I’m currently around page 100 and have just finished the part about the Chinese Revolution. I was surprised to learn that the Comintern was corrupted to the point of opposing Mao and meddling in their revolution. The Soviets tried to impose their views and tactics, which were shaped by their own struggles. It’s important for leftists to realize that revolutions cannot come from outside; they must come into being from the conflict itself. Theory and praxis have to work together as one. The theories of the Soviets didn’t fit with the conditions of the Chinese people. It’s very interesting so far, and I will certainly finish this book soon. It reminds me of Settlers but is much easier to read. Thanks again for sharing!
Glad you liked it, and very much agree with that. It’s such an important point that ideas cannot be imposed from outside.
