Marko Hoare has a new and interesting piece at his blog. An excerpt:
"Something similar is happening today, but with one significant
difference: our contem****ary left-right alliance against liberal
democracy is attacking not primarily on the domestic front, but
internationally: they are seeking to defeat, or to prevent the spread
of, liberal democacy in Iraq, in the Balkans, in Russia and Belarus,
in Zimbabwe and in Afghanistan. They are ready to undermine our
struggle and sup****t our deadly enemies in all these places. The right-
wingers among them fear that globalisation, immigration and Euro-
Atlantic integration will dilute the 'nation' as they understand it.
The left-wingers among them fear the final, definite triumph of
capitalism globally. Theirs is the rearguard action of declining
political traditions, motivated by fear and hatred of the world that
is emerging. They have no creative potential; their politics is wholly
obstructive and destructive."
