In Britain, the man widely expected to replace the stately Keir Starmer as prime minister is Andy Burnham, who touts “business-friendly socialism” as his credo. In New York, Democratic primary elections produced striking victories for democratic socialists, suggesting that the insurgent left has found a way to turn protest into power. Fareed Zakaria argues that liberalism is losing energy, confidence and connection to the people it claims to represent and it needs to regain that radical spirit to remain a relevant political force.
