Sobre o livro
Donald Trump is back in the White House.Boston Review issueTrumps Return explores how he got there, whats next, and how to resist, featuringDavid Austin Walsh,Robin D. G. Kelley,Noura Erakat,Marshall Steinbaum,Jeanne Morefield, and more.
Walsh takes us inside Trumps motley coalition of tech billionaires and America First nativists, examining its crackups and assessing its strength. With the rights strategy of anti-wokeness now effectively spent, will these alliances hold?Steinbaum reads Bidenomics in light of the long arc of Democrats economic policy since the Great Recession, finding that it neglected the biggest problem: inequality. AndMorefield exposes the lie at the heart of MAGAs invasion narrative about the fentanyl crisis, showing how decades of bipartisan fixation on enemies abroadand denial of the exceptional savagery of capitalism at homehave led to this moment.
Looking forward,Erakat follows the imperial boomerang from Palestine as it deepens political repression in the United States;Kelley plots a revival of class solidarity as the only path to durable and meaningful resistance; plus more on the colossal scale of money in politics, the labor vote, and the promises and perils of progressive federalism.
The issue also includesGianpaolo Baiocchi on lessons from Lulas extraordinary success in building a workers party in Brazil,Joelle M. Abi-Rached on the trauma of political violence and Syrias future after the fall of Assad,Aaron Bady on the rights resurgent natalism and liberal panic about falling birthrates, andSamuel Hayim Brody on the reality of settler colonialism and the mystifications of Adam Kirsch.
