Hegemonicon will return Tuesday, July 30 with interviews focusing on internationalist organizing and analysis on the US Left.

Foreign policy is back on the agenda in a big way in US politics, and promises to be a top concern for the foreseeable future. Issues around Gaza, Ukraine, and China have impacted domestic politics under the Biden administration and will factor in the November election.

The US Left has taken an internationalist turn, especially given the outrage and horror of the live-streamed modern genocide in Gaza. This has created rifts among left and progressive forces, and within the Democratic Party coalition. Some new or renewed configuration of forces on the Left must be struck.

We are witnessing genocide and have cause to fear the threat of World War Three. We see the rise of authoritarians around the world and are coming to uunderstand their global linkages. This leaves us no choice but to develop a thorough internationalist analysis and program, and incorporate it into our political practice. Season 2 of Hegemonicon will bring you conversations with people who have something to teach us about these topics. We can't wait to hear what you think!
