DESCRIPTION:The election of Barack Obama brought hope for change to many. However, 
 multiple crises have deepened since the election: a now-Great Recession, an 
 expanded permanent war and an impending ecological catastrophe. Many who 
 worked for Obama's election are now disillusioned and wondering if it is 
 possible to get out of the present total threat to human survival through 
 politics. Some are looking again at Marx's concept of revolution as a 
 process that doesn't stop at politics or political emancipation but 
 continues to human emancipation--overcoming alienation and achieving 
 self-determination in everyday life activity. Marx's view of politics 
 speaks to recent ICSS debates, between those who hold true to Marx's vision 
 of overcoming alienation, rejecting bourgeois politics, and those who see 
 coalition building within bourgeois politics as a way to achieve a Marxist 
 agenda. \n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/10/08/18624848.php
