The Agrarian South Network (ASN) is creating a Platform for Dialogue with the aim of raising consciousness on ongoing liberation struggles and the search for socialist alternatives among working peoples. With the ongoing financial impact of the Covid-19 pandemic likely to intensify the protracted contradictions of the world economy still reeling from the systemic shock of 2008, we are according to the ASN, at a historic juncture.

With this in mind, the ASN has put its resources at the disposal of progressive movements and intellectuals to build solidarities and provide for rigorous reflection on the challenges as they evolve. The theme of the Platform is ‘Spectres of Crisis, Rays of Hope: Revolution, Liberation and Development Today’, and will comprise of four initiatives: 

1. A Dialogue Series
2. A Research Bulletin
3. A serial Special Section in Agrarian South: Journal of Political Economy
4. A Short Book Series
