    Abstract

    I am grateful to Aziz Rana for his thoughtful essay on left internationalism. I accept most of his arguments. I agree strongly that it is essential for those on the left to stand in opposition to both imperialism and authoritarianism, while also doing the work of thinking through how to produce conditions of greater global justice. At the same time, it is important to consider the environments in which any change in policy would have to be sold. In that spirit, let me pose what I think are the most serious challenges with which the left should contend. (These observations are relevant to a left program for governing; considerations are somewhat different for activists and those building popular organizations.)
