What We Are Reading (Patreon)

Hey everyone. Obviously, we are all looking toward Iowa today, and what it's results mean for the state of the race going forward. But no reason to stop reading, learning, and growing. I've been revisiting the work of Ralph Miliband one of the great theorists of the state and of electoral strategies to building socialism. The piece I selected works through the difference between 'reformism' and 'revolutionary reforms.' It brings out some interesting strategies that we on the left will need to grapple with in the coming years.
