Why the Politics of the United Front Still Matter
Socialists will be a minority of the working-class movement until the future revolution. So how should they work together with people who aren’t socialists in the struggles of today?

Suggested Readings:
The Comintern by Duncan Hallas (Haymarket 2007).
Toward the United Front: Proceedings of the Fourth Congress of the Communist International, 1922, edited by John Riddell (Haymarket 2012).
