Indonesia - After Gen Z uprising, where to now? A discussion with Comrade Oskar
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Mansa is joined by Comrade Oskar, editor of Red Battler, to discuss the dynamics and outcomes of the Gen Z uprising in late August. We try and place this explosion of anger of youth in the context of Indonesia's place in a changing world order, marked by shrinking room to manoeuvre between the U.S. and the China/BRICS bloc. We also go into the weakness of the organised working class and the left. In this context, Oskar proposes some outlines of a programme to pursue debate and discussion on the left for how to go forward from here. Towards 100% merdeka!
