Revolutionary Change and Participatory Politics
The hosts analyze three examples - Padamas, Corbin, and Macron - exploring the similarities, differences, and challenges faced by each in relation to revolutionary change. They discuss the rise of political parties positioning themselves as outsiders to the system, the shift from reformist to pre-revolutionary periods, and the difficulties in predicting human behavior. The chapter also delves into decision-making within assemblies, the tension between ideologies in local communities, the importance of vanguard elements and charismatic leadership, and incubating movements through trigger events and direct action.
