The World Political Forum, initiated in 2003 by the Nobel Prize Laureate Mikhail Gorbachev, suggests solutions for the problems of the governance of globalisation and the crucial problems that affect humankind today. Its founding members have proclaimed the intention to transform it into a fully-fledged international research centre, to deal with the themes of governance and globalisation.

This book employs a Marxist framework to analyse aspects of Ghanaian politics during the 1966-81 period. Its central claim is that the present Ghanaian social formation which is dominated by foreign capital through the domestic bourgeois and petit-bourgeois classes is incapable of transforming itself into an independent autonomous system. Hence, it is characterised by recurring political and economic crises. Industrial strikes and other forms of struggle by the lower classes are responses to the deprivations which they suffer as a result of these crises, and constitute attempts to reject the rule of the country's ruling classes.
