Jacobin Foundation has the reputation of being champagne socialists. Lots of arguments wrapped up in jargon from distinguished spaces. Catalyst - their in house journal - is no exception, but individual articles can be fascinating nonetheless. Rojas’ essay on Latin American Pink Tide causes was borderline unreadable in its immense and unending technical language and theory. Ghodsee & Mead’s essay needed to be double its length to properly tackle the nuance. I strongly enjoyed Brownlee and Lachmann’s point-counterpoint discussion on US counterinsurgency defeats.
