		In terms of their actions, the British New Left concentrated on the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and the hypocrisy of the Soviet Union and its allied countries.
		The New Left opposed the prevailing authority structures in society, which it termed "The Establishment," and those who rejected this authority became known as "anti-Establishment." The New Left avoided recruiting industrial workers, and concentrated on a social activist approach to organizing.

	Ashwin Mahesh: Hindu Right & New Left
		To both the New Left and the Hindu Right, the causes he lists are not founding elements of their ideological politics, but merely a set of objectives fortunately aligned at this time with those of the other group.
		It has merely recognised that the 'cottage industry' and the native traditions it supports are respected by the New Left, and seized upon this to demand protection for anything and everything by recasting its interest in the garb of nativity.
		The similarity of interests encourages New Left voters to believe that the BJP is the likeliest political vehicle by which to advance its objectives.

	Globalization’s New Left
		While the populist left of Venezuela, Bolivia and Argentina exacerbate problems, increasing inflation and debt, the progressive left movements of Brazil and Chile pursue the reduction of poverty while maintaining the fiscal discipline required for the influx of global capital.
		This challenge of the slums, along with the persistent growth of poverty and inequality, is nourishing the emergence of globalization's new left.
		In China, the new left movement which has highlighted corrupt privatization and mounting inequality in recent years has gained sufficient momentum to propel the issue of rural and urban migrant poverty to the top of a Communist Party agenda hitherto concerned only with rapid growth.

		The New Left and civil rights movements of the 1960s participated in "radical" civil disobedience - civil disobedience that did not require "fidelity to law," that rejected the legitimacy of the status quo and sought fundamental changes to American institutions.
		The New New Left is not "patriotic" in either the pedestrian sense or the critical sense, where "love of country" is qualified and tempered by a healthy cynicism.
		The New New Left would not seek, as some kind of strange alternative, a return to Jeffersonian ruralism or the conditions in which the Constitution was signed.

		China's New Left calls for a social alternative, by Pankaj Mishra, The New York Times Magazine: One day earlier this year I met Wang Hui at the Thinker's Cafe near Tsinghua University in Beijing, where he teaches.
		New Left intellectuals advocate a "Chinese alternative" to the neoliberal market economy, one that will guarantee the welfare of the country's 800 million peasants left behind by recent changes.
		This spring it began to become clear that the New Left's advocacy of a welfare state is being echoed within the Communist leadership, which is fearful of social instability and eager to consolidate its power and legitimacy.

		The error of the New Left, therefore, consists in identifying and confusing the betrayals of the labor bureaucracies with the disorientation these cause in the ranks.
		The New Lefts pin their hopes on the dissident intellectuals and students in the advanced or “overdeveloped” countries, they see the peasants as the leading mass force in the revolutions of the backward or underdeveloped areas.
		He proposed a new Progressive party to reform capitalism on the grounds that the United States was essentially a middle-class country and the industrial workers could not and should not take the lead in national politics.

	THE NEW NEW LEFT: How American Politics Works Today
		A new dynamic has sprung up in American politics today: the contest between those who benefit from an ever-expanding public sector and those who pay for this bigger government—in other words, it’s the tax eaters vs. the taxpayers.
		Whereas the New Left of the 1960s believed—idealistically, if somewhat naively—that government could solve the biggest problems of our times, this New New Left is much more narrowly and cynically focused on expanding government programs to increase its own power, pay, and perks.
		And, as Malanga shows, the New New Left is emerging as the most powerful element of the national Democratic Party coalition.

		And one of the oddities of the Left's perception of the Soviet Union is that in the very beginning, right after the Bolshevik Revolution, the great opponents of Lenin and the people who were at first the biggest critics were the Left.
		But when I was on the Marxist Left the reasons why I would have been proud to say I was, was internationalism, solidarity, with taking the side of the oppressed, and being opposed to all forms of religious nonsense.
		The Left is now a position where it will not take the side of those in the Muslim world, the women who are enslaved, the minorities who are being physically destroyed, the gays who must be there somewhere, God knows what their lives are like, and others against something that is self-evidently, pornographically reactionary.

	Newtopia Magazine \| Paul Berman's New Left Saga, by Michael Calderone // (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		As in his New Republic, "Joschka Fischer," essay, Berman, at the onset of war, he returned to the importance of liberal interventionism, a position that is in line with the magazine's staunch support for the Iraq war.
		Whether it is left wing or right wing appears to Berman as a bankrupt, overly simplified critique of his writing, that he believes is still progressive, but strays from the standard left-wing fare.
		Amongst many war critics, and good chunk of the left, it is tacitly believed that the United States had not been innocent in the events of 9/11; that a legacy of imperialist policy somehow could be seen as justification for the terrorist attack on civilians.

	New Left Review - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		The Universities and Left Review had grown out of the Suez crisis in 1956; their journal centred on a rejection of the dominant 'revisionist' orthodoxy within the Labour Party, from a Marxist perspective.
		Through the journal, the members of the New Left would create 'New Left Clubs', and began working towards the reestablishment of Socialism as a viable force in English working-class politics.

		The process is particularly difficult in Berlin and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, states where the ex-PDS, now Left Party, is in coalition government with the SPD and in charge of the policies that cut social programs, policies that are similar to those in other states.
		The leadership of the Left Party and some leading members of the WASG — like Oskar Lafontaine — have a strong desire for quickly building a united party, and it looks to be pushed through, even against strong resistance.
		The DKP has suggested that, instead of quickly creating a new party, that all left forces, parties and organizations who wish to do so create an umbrella and work together, debate questions of common interest, co-ordinate participation in elections and add force to the movements outside parliament.

	Germany: new left, old right, by Mathias Greffrath (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Lafontaine and the left made impassioned speeches in favour of the reconstruction of the welfare state and the social market economy, redistribution of work, ecological modernisation and a new, fairer international order.
		His target group was the new centre, the well-paid core of the working class and young dynamic entrepreneurs, to whom he had promised growth and renewal.
		The intellectual vacuum left by the leftwing opposition was filled with the Blair-Schröder paper on modern social democracy (4), which, under cover of inflated rhetoric about “community spirit”, “individual responsibility” and the “optimism of the new economy”, proposed a free-market system based on deregulation, lower taxation (especially on capital) and harassment of the unemployed.

	Critique of the New Left
		That the New Left organization devolved into the control of three factions disputing the precise combination of Stalinist bureaucrats to worship has been liberally bemoaned by those who had proclaimed its essentially libertarian character; but they have never been capable of seeing the origins of this “degeneration” in the incoherence of the New Left.
		As the movement decomposed, the old self-interest issues lost their recruiting power and new, more specific ones were improvised: gay vets for equal rights in the military, Asian women for separatist health care.
		In marked contrast to fascism, this new form, at the same time that it strengthens and extends the capitalist system, is also that system’s natural development and rationalization.

		The left would be making a severe mistake to indulge the “transcendental temptations” of our collective past, for the truly progressive society is the one which has finally put away its childhood toys and vices, and begun to evolve toward a planetary humanism.
		Barry (NEW): What I mean by hegemony and domination (which includes territorialism), is that the actual texts BOTH liberal and conservative religionists reference in their belief in Christianity (for instance), are based on hegemony, domination (hierarchy) and territorialism.
		I was under the impression that the original language of the New Testament was still being debated, particularly in light of the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls and “Q” the theoretical “source” text of the New Testament.

		The New New Left of the 21st century is the heir to the 1960s New Left, demolished so well by Ayn Rand in her book The New Left: The Anti Industrial Revolution.
		Politics in modern America doesn't just contrast left and right attitudes: a new dynamic has been emerging between those who benefit from an expanding government, and those who have to pay for it: that's the focus of Steven Malanga's The New New Left, a history which examines these two movements and their sources.
		Increasingly, the Left is dominated by what Steven Malanga calls "tax eaters", which are mostly public unions in large U.S. cities that exist to consume tax funds (and provide "services" to client groups, but in a very inefficient way that does not solve the underlying problem).

	Latin America: In Search of the New Left
		Llosa, author of the new book, Liberty for Latin America: How to Undo Five Hundred Years of State Oppression, adds that today's populist leaders practice a new style of authoritarianism tailored to the age of democracy.
		For example, he says, the most extreme new populist leader in the region, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, controls his country's legislature, the Supreme Court, the armed forces and the main revenue source, the oil industry, while tolerating an active opposition, a vigorous free press and a lively civil society.
		But she adds that in a region where 40 percent of the population lives below the poverty line and is burdened with deep-rooted social, cultural and even language barriers, democracy building will be slow.

		Gazeta.Ru While Russia’s business-capitalist establishment is stunned by the Kremlin’s new steps aimed at seizing control of Yukos assets as the authorities purposefully work towards the company’s bankruptcy, the left wing of Russia has a new holiday to mark.
		That new reality began to form during last year’s parliamentary campaign as the Kremlin invested a lot of effort in the pre-electoral spin of the nationalist-populist Motherland bloc, whose main political slogan was “to forfeit and to divide”.
		Forming a new left wing, outspoken and populist, is imperative to encourage the public itself to call for the redistribution of resources and property.

		But left-handers continue to make up a small proportion of the human population, hinting there could also be some evolutionary advantage to being left-handed.
		And the ratio of left-handers to right-handers is higher in successful sportspeople than it is in the general population, suggesting there is definite advantage to favouring the left hand or foot in competitive games, such as tennis.
