  • Taming the beast or changing the system? Review of "Capitalism and its Critics"
    Nov 21 2025
    There is growing and widespread dissatisfaction with capitalism worldwide. Economic models that dominated the post-Word War Two decades — Keynesian social democracy and later neoliberal globalization — are seen as having run aground. The system today is failing to meet the basic needs of working class people. This crisis has fuelled both right and left populist movements. Economic nationalism, authoritarianism and inequality are resurgent. It is with this background that John Cassidy explores, in a timely fashion, the critics of capitalism and the alternatives they advocate in Capitalism and its Critics – A Battle of Ideas In The Modern World. TU Senan and Niall Mulholland discuss Cassidy’s book and where his analysis differs from that of the CWI.

  • The World Impact of Two Years of War on Gaza – and what lies ahead?
    Nov 4 2025
    More analysis at https://www.socialistparty.org.uk/ A month after the second anniversary of the 7 October 2023 attack on Israel and the subsequent prolonged genocidal slaughter in Gaza, the fate of Trump’s latest proposals for an end to the war is still in the balance. The US plans to impose a transitional government of technocrats on the Palestinians in Gaza, backed up by outside armed forces – a form of naked colonialism. Israeli military forces will be allowed to remain inside the perimeter of the Gaza strip, maintaining control of its borders – a continued blockade, imprisoning the Palestinians and deciding what goods can enter and leave the strip. Israeli prime minister Netanyahu has made clear that Israel has no intention of entirely withdrawing from Gaza and stressed that there will be no possibility of a Palestinian state. Today, with nationality-based distrust and division dominating the Israel-Palestine landscape, a solution can seem further away than ever. On a capitalist basis, it’s not just further away, but impossible. However, consciousness of workers and the poor in Israel and among Palestinians will not be disconnected from developments in other parts of the world, a world in which young people are increasingly questioning whether capitalist crisis is their only future.

  • Where next for Mélenchon and La France Insoumise?
    Oct 31 2025
    Tony Saunois, CWI Secretary, discusses his review of Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s book, “Now the People – Revolution in the 21st Century”, with Sean Figg, from the CWI’s International Secretariat. Mélenchon and the movement he leads, La France Insoumise (Frace Unbowed), are well positioned to play a critical role in how the crisis of French capitalism develops in the next period. To advance the interests of the French working class in the crisis the issues of program, organisation and strategy are crucial. In this podcast Tony and Sean look at Mélenchon’s position on these crucial questions.
