@pstanpolitics Yes, after being crushed (or self-marginalized), they were unable to provide radical alternatives that ultranationists or Islamists could post-1991. Aasim sajaad akhter's politics of common sense is a good primer of this process in Pakistan, imho.
I learned a ton about leftist insurgencies - and their relationship with electoral politics - for this @cps_journal article a couple years ago (Open Access for anyone who really wants to geek out on the CPT, CPM-ML, etc); https://t.co/1ZaNKp1kpN
thanks @GerardoMunck and @palmer_rubin for highlighting this work, a labour of love that arises from discussions in graduate school seminars twenty years earlier.

About 50 years ago I submitted the dissertation which became the book Power and Powerlessness in an Appalachian Valley. I am delighted that @GabeSchwartzman and I have just submitted a new manuscript which picks up on where the previous book left off! @illionispress
