Ukraine strikes the blow! Long live the Ukrainian revolution!

Samantha

The National Liberation Army of Ukraine (ЗСУ) carried out a series of large-scale drone attacks on air bases of Putin’s army on the territory of the Russian Federation on June 1, 2025. That series of attacks, which the Ukrainians have dubbed “Operation Spider Web,” destroyed around 40 aircraft, a percentage that is equivalent to almost 40% of Putin’s aircraft fleet. Ukraine has dealt an extraordinary blow! A coup that encourages and stimulates the national liberation revolutions that are developing in Kurdistan, Palestine, Syria, Yemen, Georgia, Chashemyra, etc., where the militias…

Samantha

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: These are three out of hundreds of points that could be made from as many scientific documents. It is important to emphasise the fact that…

Dahlia Abdelilah Baasher (Sudan), Untitled, n.d. Dear friends, Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. Over the past weeks, international focus has no doubt been on the escalation between India and Pakistan, which we will write more about once the dust settles. Though none of the armies crossed the border or the Line of Control, concern is nonetheless understandable: both countries wield nuclear weapons in their arsenal. Now, there has effectively been a return to the ceasefire of 1948, which has lingered in the decades since without…

No to the oppression of the ruling classes of India and Pakistan ! In defense of the rights of the Kashmiri people!

Samantha

Writes from India Sagnik Mukherjee Amid the recent war-like tension brewing between India and Pakistan, both states have issued various statements. Following a sudden terrorist attack on tourists in Pahalgam, Kashmir, on April 22, 2025, which claimed 26 lives, the situation escalated into one resembling war. The Indian state, under the pretext of combating so-called “Islamic terrorism,” is preparing for military action. Similarly, the Pakistani state has historically supported the same kind of frustrated petty-bourgeois terrorism, often veiled in religious garb—because religious identity (not religion itself) proves most effective and…

Professor Wolff begins this week on Economic Update by analyzing the choice between reform and revolution through two historical discussions: the anti-slavery fight in the mid-19th century and the anti-Depression fight in the U.S. during the 1930s. He then explains the stakes in choosing reform or revolution as goals for social change and outlines how and why both options are now back on the working class’s agenda in the U.S. He concludes the discussion by suggesting that revolution is the necessary guarantor of the duration of reforms in the U.S.,…

Samantha

Malak Mattar (Palestine), If the Olive Tree Knew, 2025. Dear friends, Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. In 1948, the newly proclaimed Israeli government seized 78% of Palestinian land and expelled more than half of the population (750,00 people) from their villages and towns.
