ABSTRACT
At the heart of the social movements of recent years, at least in their more radical variants, is a drive against the logic of capitalist society. The so-called social movements are not organized as political parties. Their aim is not to win state power, rather to reverse the movement of a society gone mad, systematically mad. The movements say in effect: ‘No, we refuse to go in that direction, we refuse to accept the mad logic of the capitalist system, we shall go in a different direction, or in different directions’.
