Love the conclusion:

How can perspectives be developed in which the interests of many groups
can be combined in solidarity? Cross-cultural, counter-hegemonic
orientations and identities can only emerge in the long-term in common
discussions that cross the barriers of different social groups without
disregarding their differences within capitalist and racist relations of
power. Some approaches might be the efforts towards a transnational network
for a “social Europe” and global justice “from below” (such as campaigns
for global social rights) and the extension of anti-racist
counter-mobilizations towards (long-term) social alliances against
anti-Muslim racism and precarization, security policies and economic
nationalism.

This is a (good) translation of a piece from a German group called 
Gruppe Soziale Kämpfe (Social Struggles Group). The ideas discussed are 
very interesting but the rather obscure language used is, unfortunately, 
quite typical of much discussion on the German left.
