The idea that workers would seize the means of production in one country, and then the revolution would spread to other countries seems almost antiquated, given the fact that industrial capitalists in countries like the US have moved their production facilities elsewhere. There are no factories to seize, only Wal-marts.
Given the realities of today's situation, has there been any reimagining of how global capital could possibly be overcome recently? It seems like a new analysis and strategies are sorely needed.

The idea that workers would seize the means of production in one country, and then the revolution would spread to other countries seems almost antiquated...That was what communists expected after de Russian revolution in 1917. The failure of the German revolution in 1918 spoiled that opportunity.

There are no factories to seize, only Wal-marts.Globalization is what makes many a factory to move to another country where the labor-work is cheaper. That's why the proletarian revolution bears an International character.
But I bet the great technological-military industries remain home... and so many other.

It seems like a new analysis and strategies are sorely needed.New communist concepts are needed for defining a different socialism than the Soviet State capitalism and to overcome the dictatorship of the mass media business that uses that failing authoritarian Soviet regime as counterargument to socialism.
