Verden er i forandring, de gamle koordinater for klassekampen er ubrugelige, og sammenbruddet af den senkapitalistiske verdensorden er helt åbenlyst i gang, hvad enten man kan lide det eller ej.I forlængelse af en venstrekommunistisk tradition for historisk analyse og kritisk tænkning, fra Rosa Luxemburg over Karl Korsch og Walter Benjamin til Guy Debord og Jacques Camatte og frem til Roswitha Scholz, sætter vi fokus på klassekampens historiske og nuværende repræsentationsformer. Strejken, som vi ønsker at pointere med Luxemburg, er ikke blot et pressionsmiddel i kampen for bedre lønvilkår men en historisk specifik form for konfliktoptrapning i en uforsonlig klassekamp, der ændrer sig organisk i takt med kapitalakkumulationen. Spørgsmålet er så, om strejken fortsat har en rolle at spille i dag, hinsides traditionelle forestillinger om arbejderklassen og klassekampen?

The unflinching true account of a teenage girl's descent into society's underbelly -- and her mother's desperate and ultimately successful attempts to bring her back.How does an honor student at one of Los Angeles's finest prep schools -- a bright, beautiful girl from a loving home -- trade school uniforms and afternoons at the beach for shooting up in the back of a van in rural Indiana? How does her devoted mother emerge from the shock of finding that her daughter has not only disappeared but had been living a secret life for more than a year?Mother and daughter tell their parallel stories in mesmerizing first-person accounts. Claire Fontaine's story is a parent's worst nightmare, a cautionary tale chronicling her daughter Mia's drug-fueled manipulation of everyone around her as she sought refuge in the seedy underworld of criminals and heroin addicts, the painful childhood secrets that led up to it, and the healing that followed. Her search for Mia was brutal for both mother and daughter, a dizzying series of dead ends, incredible coincidences and, at times, miracles. Ultimately, Mia was forced into harsh-but-loving boot camp schools on two continents while Claire entered a painful but life-changing program of her own. Mia's story includes the jarring culture shock of the extreme and controversial behavior modification school she was in for nearly two years, which helped her overcome depression and self-hatred to emerge a powerful young woman with self-esteem and courage. An unforgettable story of love and transformation, Come Back is a heart-wrenching and humorous portrayal of the primal bond between mother and daughter that will resonate with women everywhere.
