But the disaster was avoided thanks to a New Popular Front of parties headed by long-standing left-wing leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon. It won the most seats in the snap parliamentary elections, running on a radical, progressive, inclusive agenda, in large part inspired by Mélenchon's presidential programme. Now, the People! details his vision of revolution in our time. In this book, Mélenchon embarks on a survey of human history from its earliest moments to the crisis-ridden present. He outlines his vision for a new strategy for radical parties to reach the highest levels of government and peacefully transform the capitalist system: a citizens' revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this revolution, individuals come together to form a single, politically mobilised people. They assert their power over the collective conditions of urbanised life, against the oligarchy that still controls them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Melenchon, Jean-Luc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53450950344888,"sku":"9781804297957","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/1953\/8872\/files\/9781804297957.jpg?v=1778342221","url":"https:\/\/octoberbooks.org\/products\/9781804297957","provider":"October Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
