Abstract

The new paradigm of leftist politics emerging has a mix of old and new values, new in contrast to the British socialism which was based on the nation-state and the heritage of the Empire and the Commonwealth, post-national economics instead assumes a place. This new leftist politics as yet lacks a spokesperson as well as a utopian vision, but some are trying to fashion new utopias based on such ideas as ecology, gender equality or anti-globalization.
