Vijay Prashad The refashioned liberals and social
democrats are back. They have positioned themselves as the saviors of the
world; they act as Reason to the unreasonableness of neo-fascism. This is
possible because their forebearers have collapsed in the puddle of neoliberalism
and technocracy, and because their adversaries now present themselves as the
howling wolves of the extreme right. The refashioned liberals and social
democrats are like zombies, the reanimated corpse of a dead liberalism.1
