Immodest Proposals

A casual reader could be forgiven for thinking that What Should the Left Propose? was written ten or twelve years ago, in response to the collapse of the Soviet Union and the rise of "Third Way" leftism. For Roberto Mangabeira Unger's diagnoses of the left's decline are both plausible and familiar, and they say nothing about left debates since 2001. He lodges the standard complaint about neoliberalism (though he refrains from using the word).
