welcome to left forum 2014
Thank you for participating in Left Forum 2014. The
conference has steadily grown over the years, and
has been transformed by the influence of thousands
of participants from six continents and myriad political
perspectives. We are proud of this year’s gathering,
humbled by the diversity of voices it includes, and
honored that you can join us. The Left Forum Board of
Directors would like to express our deep appreciation
to John Jay College of Criminal Justice, particularly its
President Jeremy Travis, Jeff Brown, Cheryl D’Antonio,
the Department of Economics, and all those who
were instrumental in making this conference come
to fruition. We’re all very happy to have our annual
conference back at a CUNY institution, as it was our
roots—particularly one that “educates for justice.”
We also want to express our abiding apprictiation to
the hundreds of volunteers who help before, during,
and after the event to make the weekend possible.
This program guide includes the full conference schedule, and will help you navigate the more than 400 panels, workshops, and events happening this weekend.
Please look through it carefully. The accompanying
map should get you there on time, but feel free to ask
a staff member or volunteer for assistance. We also
heartily invite you to participate in the Left Forum Exhibition, held in the atrium and lobby areas of the con-
ference center, located near the registration tables.
The Exhibition is one of a number of meeting and networking spaces for the conference, and includes book
publishers and movement organizers.
With so much happening at once, we ask that you help
us keep things running smoothly: please keep your
conference bracelet visible. (If you lose your bracelet,
you will have to purchase another one.) Additionally,
we ask that you not overcrowd rooms; we ask anyone
who cannot find a seat to please select another panel
to attend. Please note that the plenary sessions and
all stand-alone events are first come, first served. In
between panels, the cafeteria and cafe will be open
from morning to early evening.
Finally, we encourage you to indulge the opportunity to share and discuss ideas with each other, and
take advantage of the rare occasion for such a rich
public debate. We organize the Left Forum to open
an arena for dialogue on the most pressing matters
of our world, with an ardent belief that this will help
change it. To this end, we once again thank you for
your participation, and look forward to seeing you in
the future.

reform and/or revolution
Imagining a World with Transformative Justice
The world remains mired in the 7th year of capitalist
crisis. The celebrated “recovery” benefits only the few
who generated the crisis, while endless economic
declines beset its victims, the vast majority. Economic,
political and cultural inequalities deepen inside every
country. Class divisions sharpen. Social injustice
brings us all to breaking points.
Big business and the rich maximize social controls
to protect and preserve their dominance. Everywhere
they and their politicians impose austerities while
reserving public resources to bail out banks and other
failed mega-corporations. Capitalism’s “new normal”
for most people features poor job and income
prospects, unsustainable debts, ecological decline,
and right-wingers aiming to deflect social discontent
against their usual scapegoats.
Human and natural resources wasted and abused
expose this system’s immense social costs. Even as
the environmental crisis reaches epic proportions, the
forces of capital either sit idly by or actively oppose
serious measures to address it. We can surely do
better than this system. The 1% have managed the
crisis for their benefit.
The question is whether we can now solve the crisis
and build a system that serves instead the 99%. This
question is on the minds of millions now, more than at
any time in half a century. The Left Forum 2014 offers
a place for us to explore and debate our common
needs for reforms, a revolution, or both.
As the system fails so many so badly, activists for
democracy, sustainability, equality, and the abolition
of oppression and exploitation increasingly grasp their
shared demand for basic social justice. Fifty years
of anti-communism, anti-radicalism, hesitant social
criticism, and activists’ mutual suspicions are fading
into irrelevance.
Pressing questions loom for justice-seeking social
forces: What is to be done today when a reform brings
us one step forward, while leaving other important
struggles worse off in the process? What type of
movements will it take to overcome such challenges?
What type of institutions, systems and societal
conditions are possible when transformed conditions
of justice no longer take the forms of, “the aggrieved
speaking to the grievance alleviators”? How do these
issues raise the question of the relation of reform to
revolution? More than ever, people know that a new
and different world is urgently needed. How do we
get there from here: reforms, revolution, or strategic
combinations of both?
Please come analyze, debate, build, ally, and strategize
at Left Forum, 2014.

Roderick Douglas Bush
November 12, 1945 – December 5, 2013
We are sad to announce our beloved comrade and Board member Rod
Bush passed away on December 5, 2013 at 6:55pm, after a brief and
unexpected illness. His three years on the board were marked by his
extraordinary gift of bringing diverse radical, revolutionary and social
justice communities together and into the Forum's intellectual and
movement-building panels, events, plenary sessions and workshops. Rod
organized more panels every year than seemed humanly possible, and
in the same conference he was able to give just as much as a speaker,
teacher, moderator and conference convener. He brought a wonderful
humility and kindness to his unflagging political commitment. While his
influence on thousands of people he reached at and beyond the Forum
will be profoundly missed, we are proud to have had the great fortune of
knowing and working with Rod and his influence will continue to grow in
our midst. We extend our heartfelt condolences to Melanie Bush and the
entire Bush family, and remember fondly the stories Rod told of love and
connection to and beyond his large extended family and friends.

Restoration of Class Struggle Unionism
Edited by Immanuel Ness
Foreword by Staughton Lynd
$24.95 • 336 Pages
“New Forms of Worker Organization vividly describes what
workers in Africa, Asia, South America, and Europe have
done to make their unions more effective. Let’s hope that
these compelling case studies of rank-and-file struggle
and bottom-up change lead to more of the same where it’s
needed the most, among those of us ‘born in the USA!’”

New Politics plays a unique role on the democratic left.
As founding editors Julius and Phyllis Jacobson wrote:
“New Politics allies itself with all those working for
peace, social justice, and cultural freedom,” and offers
“a framework broad enough to embrace diversity and
disagreement.” NP features serious political analysis,
interviews, book and film reviews, and cartoons.
$24 for individuals ($50 for institutions)
in U.S. currency only, drawn on a U.S. bank
New Politics comes out twice a year.

What really happened in

THE ROBERTSON STUDY: A
precise synchronization, within
100ths of a second, of the
Zapruder film frames and the
Dealey Plaza acoustic tape.
This produces:
• Mathematical verification of
five shots taken from three
sites, proving conspiracy.
• The Single Bullet Theory is
scientifically demolished.
• More than a thousand JFK files
and records remain withheld,
some for more than 50 years.
• Mainstream and science press
won’t publish new evidence
even when based wholly on
actual government documents.
Dr. Randolph Robertson, the
only independent radiologist
authorized by the Kennedy family
to study the original autopsy
materials, presents the
Robertson Study.

Theory in Action is an international peer reviewed journal in its 7th year published
quarterly by the independent Transformative Studies Institute (TSI), a non-profit educational
think tank committed to academic freedom, social justice, and scholar-activism.
•BREADTH OF SCOPE IN PROGRESSIVE THINKING – Theory in Action is a forum for research on
the interconnections between theory and action that promotes social justice, broadly defined. While valuing
radical and unconventional ideas, the journal does not privilege any particular theoretical tradition or approach.
We are interested in how theory can inform activism to promote equality and democracy.
•AUDACIOUS – It seeks research that ‘conventional’ journals would reject because they are too radical or
break with prior molds. We welcome ALL scholarship and seek to transform reactionary elitist academia into a
space of true independent thought without retaliations, reprisals, or the compartmentalization of knowledge.
•EXTENSIVE EXPOSURE – Theory in Action is available in hundreds of libraries all over the world. Your
work will reach a wide community of academics, professionals, and activists, across a range of relevant
disciplines.
•HIGH VISIBILITY via our online platform and partners such as EBSCO/H.W. Wilson, ProQuest, and
more – The FULL TEXT (not just an abstract) of your article will be accessible globally and will benefit from the
very latest in online search and discoverability technology. You can be assured of the highest attention to
production values.

Libertarian Socialism through Counter Ideology, Societal Education,
& Direct Action
By John Asimakopoulos
Foreword Peter McLaren
“A welcome return to the center stage of political discourse—and action—for the working
class, and class consciousness. A must read for everyone that actually takes workingclass self-determination seriously.” —Ramsey Kanaan, PM Press
“A must-read book for all those interested in real change and social justice stripped bare
of rhetoric and fantasy.” —Sarat Colling, Political Media Review
“Machine-breakers were once threatened with the death penalty if they took direct action
against the systems of production that reduced them to poverty. Kleptocracy capitalism
describes a similar juxtaposition: the facilitation of systematic corporate exploitation
running alongside policies which criminalise individuals who steal in order to live. John
Asimakopoulos’ critique draws inspiration from the history of working-class activism and,
in presenting a clear and accessible analysis of the system’s operation, he also calls for
direct action to combat it, passionately giving voice to a popular and deeply held view—
that the status quo must be challenged.”
—Dr. Ruth Kinna, Editor, Anarchist Studies, UK
“In our increasingly crisis-ridden world, where the global working class is rediscovering
its spine, we need visions of vastly different worlds to aspire to. And these visions must
be linked to critiques of the existing society. Asimakopoulos combines these tasks in his
latest book, Revolt! This book is recommended reading for anyone sickened by an
increasingly violent, volatile, and boring status quo.”
—Dr. Deric Shannon, Transformative Radio
ABOUT THE BOOK: Asimakopoulos develops a theory to action model for working
class movement building toward societies based on direct democracy. Revolt! analyzes
the Great Recession showing neoliberal globalization is intensifying capitalism’s
contradictions resulting in perpetual crises and collapse. Reviewing the labor and civil
rights movements Asimakopoulos argues social justice can only be achieved through a
new movement which, short of the immediate overthrow of capitalism, can obtain with
direct action specific working class victories that will set in motion transformative
change.

documents still suppressed.
Thousands of records intended to
be released decades ago remain
suppressed and withheld from the
public at behest of the CIA.
• Lack of transparency and
missing records undermine
faith in our government and
democracy itself.
• Congressional oversight is
the hallmark of democratic
accountability. We now know
the 1979 House investigation
into the JFK assassination was
subverted by CIA. Recent revelations by Sen. Feinstein about
subversion of the oversight process and violation of the separation of powers demonstrate
history repeating itself.
• A major focus of this panel will
be the history of the document
suppression and how release can
now be expedited. Public pressure to declassify and release
the documents and historical
record is essential.

Capitalism
A Ghost Story
Arundhati Roy
Brazil's Dance with the Devil
The World Cup, the Olympics,
and the Fight for Democracy
Capitalism: A Ghost Story examines the dark side of
democracy in contemporary India and shows how the
demands of globalized capitalism have subjugated
billions of people to the most intense forms of racism
and exploitation.
Dave Zirin
As the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympic Games
approach, ordinary Brazilians are holding the country's
biggest protest marches in decades. Sports journalist Dave
Zirin traveled to Brazil to find out why. In a rollicking read
that travels from the favelas of Rio de Janeiro to the fabled
Maracanã Stadium, Zirin examines how athletic
mega-events turn into neoliberal Trojan horses.

Rebecca Solnit
In her comic, scathing essay
“Men Explain Things to Me,” Rebecca
Solnit took on what often goes wrong in
conversations between men and
women. She wrote about men
who wrongly assume they
know things and wrongly
assume women don’t, about
why this arises, and how this
aspect of the gender wars works,
airing some of her own hilariously
awful encounters.
Holding Fast to an
Image of the Past
Unfinished Leninism
Explorations in the Marxist Tradition
Paul Le Blanc
This book of essays by historian Neil Davidson insightfully explores themes running through historical
materialism to show how Marxism can retain a sense
of tradition without becoming fossilized. Examining
classical and contemporary figures, subjects range
from Naomi Klein's view of neoliberalism to Karl Marx
and Frederick Engels's views on Scotland.
The Rise and Return of a Revolutionary Doctrine
Lenin was perhaps the greatest revolutionary of the twentieth
century: leader of the Russian Revolution of 1917, and the central
founder of modern Communism. These clearly-written essays
offer a succinct account of his life and times, a lively view of his
personality, and a stimulating engagement with his ideas.

Rosa Luxemburg’s ideas have recently returned to the

theories of capital help us understand and fight the

never-ending growth?
The European Left is struggling to move from defensive

Bill Mullen reviews Ali Abunimah’s
Socialism 2014 is a four-day conference bringing together hundreds of
socialists and radical activists from around the country to take part in discussions about Marxism, working-class history, and the debates and strategies for
organizing today.
Every year, the Socialism conference aims to be a place where activists can
share lessons from their struggles—from the boycott, divestment, and sanctions
campaign for Palestine to the fight for LGBT liberation, from the Fight for 15
to the struggle to stop the destruction of the planet, to the fight against racism,
and more.
With well over 100 meetings, the weekend will feature left-wing authors
and thinkers discussing the debates on the left today, as well as meetings on
the hidden history of working-class and socialist struggles.
Entertainment this year will feature the abortion rights play Mom Baby God
as well as a Radical Film Festival, and much more.

Socialism and Democracy has a venerable reputation of uniquely providing socialists and
leftists of all perspectives with consistently rigorous analytic and historical essays on the
most urgent questions of our time. In this period of capitalist repression and upheaval, I
strongly recommend Socialism and Democracy as essential reading for all leftists who
seek to unify theory and praxis on the most pressing issues that face humanity.
