This seems counter-intuitive in light of the modest success the left has enjoyed since the great financial crisis of 2008-09. This has only been exacerbated by stunning Republican gains in recent congressional elections. But this short-sighted perspective overemphasizes the role of crisis and underestimates the role of long-term fundamental change.
