Please Ensure That the Planet Does Not Burn: The Twenty-Third Newsletter (2025)

Rebecca Lee Kunz (Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma), Coyote Skin – Dusty Paws, 2022. Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. Reading documents from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) makes me morose. Everything looks terrible. This is largely due to the social processes set in motion by capitalism, including the harsh use of nature and the reliance on carbon-based fuels. For example: One million of the estimated eight million species of plants and animals on the planet are threatened with extinction. The main threat to a majority of species at risk of extinction is biodiversity loss caused bythe capitalist agribusiness system of food production. Agricultural production – currently accounting for more than 30% of the world’s habitabl...

Hundreds of Millions Are Dying of Hunger: The Twenty-Second Newsletter (2025)

Maksud Mirmuhamedov (Tajikistan), Hearth, 2020. Dear friends, Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. I have written this newsletter before. In fact, I could write this newsletter every year when a new Global Report on Food Crises is published. The report rests on four points: The number of people who are hungry is greater now than last year. The amount of food produced this year is greater than that produced last year. There is enough food to feed the total world population, and more. How do we explain why people are hungry? Sao Sreymao (Cambodia), Left Over, 2017. Let’s add in the data. Point no. 1: 733 million people faced chronic hunger in 2023, according to studies from the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), W...

No Genocide Ambassador in Our City!

May 28, 2025 | Barry Weisleder Hundreds of supporters of the Palestinian people rallied outside a famous Toronto tourist attraction to protest the presence of an invited Zionist war criminal on the evening of May 27. Gilad Erdan, Israeli politician and former ambassador to the United Nations, attended a fundraising dinner at Casa Loma hosted by the Zionist advocacy group, the Abraham Global Peace Initiative. Erdan is notorious for tearing up a copy of the U.N. Charter when he addressed that body, declaring that countries whose leaders are critical of the genocide in Gaza are rife with anti-Semitism. Scores of Toronto police guarded entrances to the mid-town castle. For over two hours, protesters chanted "No more silence, no more fear. Genocide is c...

1925~27년 중국 노동자 혁명 100주년: 혁명은 어떻게 비극으로 끝났는가

1925~27년 중국에서 혁명이 일어났음을 아는 사람은 오늘날 드물다. 대부분의 좌파들도 이 중요한 역사적 경험을 잘 언급하지 않는다. 그러나 이 혁명은 노동계급의 혁명적 잠재력을 보여 준 사건이었고, 다른 한편 계급 연합 전략의 문제를 보여 주는 중요한 역사적 사례다. 정확히 100년 전 중국에서 노동자 혁명이 일어났다. 노동자들은 반제국주의 요구와 자신들의 고유한 요구를 결합하며 투쟁을 혁명으로 발전시켰다. 그 혁명은 비록 패배했지만 노동자들이 사회를 스스로 운영할 잠재력을 갖고 있음을 힐끗 보여 줬다. 당시 중국은 제국주의 열강의 지배 아래에 있었다. 영국, 일본, 프랑스 등 열강은 중국의 시장을 개방하고, 불평등 조약으로 얻어 낸 반(半)식민 구역인 조계를 중심으로 중국 곳곳에 자국의 세력권을 구축했다. 그리고 나머지 지역들은 군벌들이 통치하고 있었다. 1919년 5·4 운동이 변화의 기폭제가 됐다. 서구 열강의 동의하에 일본이 산둥성 지배권을 차지한 데 분노해 학생들의 항의 시위가 전국적으로 벌어졌다. 수많은 대중이 운동에 뛰어들었다. 특히 노동자들이 학생들을 지지해 파업을 벌여 처음으로 조직된 세력으로서 투쟁에 나섰다. “광동성, 홍콩 파업 반드시 승리하자” 현수막을 들고 있는 중국 노동자들 ⓒ출처 Universal History Archive 이후 1917년 러시아 혁명의 영향과 운동의 고양 속에 1921년 중국 공산당이 창당됐다. 공산당은 홍콩, 항저우, 상하이 등지를 중심으로 활발해진 노동자 투쟁에 관여하며 빠르게 성장했다. 1925년 5월 상하이 일본인 소유 ...

Palestina: Historia de una colonización

Los autores de este trabajo actuaron bajo la orientación y dirección de Nahuel Moreno. El trabajo contiene las posiciones y elaboración teórico política de Nahuel Moreno que reivindicamos desde La Marx International Roberto Fanjul y Gabriel Zadunaisky El tema central de este trabajo es el carácter del Estado de Israel, desde los orígenes del movimiento sionista hasta el papel que cumple hoy día en el escenario político y social de Oriente Medio. Nos hemos entonces circunscrito casi exclusivamente a la trayectoria del sionismo en Palestina. Con respecto a la actual situación de Oriente Medio, no se puede tomar una posición correcta, sin antes haber precisado el carácter del Estado de Israel y de su papel actual. Dada la monumental acumulación de fábulas, verdades a medias...
