THIS IS REVOLUTION＞podcast Ep. 181: Interrogating 3rd and 4th Posistionism aka Avant Garde Fascism

Neoliberal capitalism is in crisis across much of the world as discontent directed towards the prevailing political and economic order grows. Mainstream political parties, both on the liberal left and conservative right, are facing new challenges to their political hegemony as ever growing numbers of people are being attracted to political programs and ideologies that were once ostracised from polite society. This trend is partly manifested in the form of a resurgent left, albeit one that remains extremely weak. However, a more significant challenge to the mainstream is coming from the far right. Given this new reality some individuals on the left are advocating a left-right alliance directed at overthrowing the establishment. Others warn about the dangers of Third and Four Positionism, Stasserism and Nazbols. In this episode we will ask, what is the historical background behind calls for cooperation between the radical left and right? What are Stasserites, Third Positionists, and Nazbols? And what is the reality of left-right cooperation and overlap?
