On November 3rd, at 12:30pm in ICC 462 (Center for Latin American Studies/Georgetown University) a conversation will be held with the editors of the recently published book Revolutionary Violence and the New Left: Transnational Perspectives (Routledge, 2017), edited by Alberto Martin Álvarez and Eduardo Rey Tristán.

Available for pre-order HERE the book edited by the network coordinators, Alberto Martín Álvarez and Eduardo Rey Tristán, Revolutionary Violence and the New Left. Transnational Perspectives, published by Routledge.

About the book:

Leading figures and rising stars in the field present the first contribution explaining the transnational nature of the revolutionary violence of the New Left. Focusing on the processes of dissemination of ideologies and mobilization of ideas and repertoires of action among the revolutionary organizations of the New Left in Latin America, Europe, and the United States, this book contributes to our understanding of the dynamics of the New Left wave and, at the same time, helps explain the “why” of the emergence of very similar armed leftist groups in vastly different geographical and political contexts.
