The Greens have yet to discover the politics of production, which is unfortunate, because the global Left needs to generate a new sort of Red-Green synthesis -- a politics of global production and not just consumption (I know this, because I'm a card-carrying member of the Greens here in Oregon, and getting Green folks to solidarize with labor and other issues has been tough). On another topic entirely, how's the multi-cultural struggle going in Sweden? Are the citizenship laws there as fascist as the ones in Germany, or is there progress being made? Any chance that the new EU citizenship will be made available to immigrants any time soon? -- Dennis --- from list marxism-international-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
