<nettime> The New "Left" - OR why inequality is politically

[molly hankwitz <mollybh@netspace.net.au>]

On the right, the tension between communitarian / libertarians is well
understood. On the left, less so. Also not yet understood are the
alliances of convenience between left and right communitarians. The
anti-globalisation demonstrators have often not faced up to the fact that
they are lending support to Buchanan and Le Pen. There's an extraordinary
silence about the economic racism of opposng globalsation from a 1st world
perspective.

Ken, can you talk a bit about the issue mentioned in the last sentence
here? Where do you see that economic rcism coming from? How is it
expressed?
