        concluding conversation between

        Tariq Ali and Simon Sheikh

        28 February 2015

      3. This conversation and discussion questions the notion of a “former West” itself, asking how such terms can be useful in attempting to understand people and popular movements, while simultaneously looking at alternatives to the current rule of “the Extreme Centre,” as Tariq Ali formulates it in his new book of the same name.
