a /Globalizations/ forum on Samir Amin's proposal for a 5th international

Samir Amin died on August 12, 2018. In July of 2018 he published a call 
for the establishment of a global fifth international that could 
coordinate and provide support to progressive social movements.

idea of a global political organization and those who think this is a

among activists and scholars in Africa). Although initially in the 
English language, we anticipate and encourage translations.


Representatives of each of the co-publishers have been be asked to 
approve the contents of the forum and each publisher will be named in 
the front page of the forum. Each of the co-publishers will provide 
links from their own websites to the /Globalizations/ special forum and 
links from each co-publisher will be listed on the Globalizations forum 
site.  This collaboration will allow wide access to the important 
discussion of Samir Amin’s proposal for a new global political 
organization.
