This volume of Socialist Register considers trajectories of radical politics in various regions in the face of neoliberal austerity and capitalist crises. It examines the processes at work in the remaking of the socialist movement today, and what they entail for reviving the prospects for revolutionary transformations that would lead to the genuine democratization of state, economy, and society.

Since 1985, he has served as co-editor of the Socialist Register, which describes itself as "an annual survey of movements and ideas from the standpoint of the independent new left". Panitch himself sees the Register as playing a major role in developing Marxism's conceptual framework for advancing a democratic, co-operative and egalitarian, socialist alternative to capitalist competition, exploitation and insecurity.
