wisidagamage

La Marx International 4/3/2023 One year after the start of the War in Ukraine, the result is that the plans of the Putin regime have been defeated. There is not the slightest possibility that Putin can reverse this situation, the losses of Putin’s armies are enormous, both his regular forces and the mercenary forces of the Wagner Group. A political crisis of the regime of the invaders has opened with public disputes between the high commands of the army, while the people of Russia have turned their backs on the…

SAFTU JOINS THE LEGAL CHALLENGE TO HOLD GOVERNMENT AND ESKOM ACCOUNTABLE

wisidagamage

The South African Federation of Trade Unions (SAFTU) joins the legal challenge to hold government and Eskom management accountable. Our affiliate, the National Union of Metalworkers of SA (NUMSA), was already part of this process. SAFTU has always and continues to be an advocate against mismanagement of Eskom which has resulted in loadshedding, that has now moved from being intermittent to regular and continuous. It is amongst others, a reason we called for the resignation of the outgoing Eskom CEO, Andre de Ruyter, as soon as he began breaking records…

ரஷ்யாவில் 1905 புரட்சியின் தொடக்கத்தில் லெனின் எழுதிய இந்த கட்டுரை 31 ஜனவரி, 1905 அன்று வெளியிடப்பட்டது.

wisidagamage

Raju Prabath Lankaloka ரஷ்யாவில் மிகப்பெரிய வரலாற்று முக்கியத்துவம் வாய்ந்த நிகழ்வுகள் வளர்ந்து வருகின்றன. பாட்டாளி வர்க்கம் ‘சார்’க்கு எதிராக உயர்ந்துள்ளது’. பாட்டாளி வர்க்கம் அரசாங்கத்தால் கிளர்ச்சி செய்ய உந்தப்பட்டது. வேலைநிறுத்த இயக்கத்தை அபிவிருத்தி செய்ய அரசாங்கம் வேண்டுமென்றே அனுமதித்தது என்பதில் இப்போது எந்த சந்தேகமும் இருக்க முடியாது, மேலும் ஒரு பரந்த ஆர்ப்பாட்டம் தடையின்றி அதிகமாகவோ அல்லது குறைவாகவோ தொடங்கப்பட வேண்டும், இராணுவ சக்தியைப் பயன்படுத்தக்கூடிய ஒரு கட்டத்திற்கு விஷயங்களை கொண்டு வருவதற்காக. அதன் சூழ்ச்சி வெற்றிகரமாக இருந்தது. ஜனவரி 9, ஞாயிற்றுக்கிழமை, செயின்ட். பீட்டர்ஸ்பர்க் அப்படி இருந்தது, ஆயிரக்கணக்கானோர் கொல்லப்பட்டனர் மற்றும் காயமடைந்தனர்-. நிராயுதபாணியான தொழிலாளர்கள், பெண்கள் மற்றும் குழந்தைகளை இராணுவம் தோற்கடித்தது. புரோஸ்திரேட் தொழிலாளர்களை சுட்டுக் கொன்றதன் மூலம் இராணுவம் எதிரிகளை வென்றது. ஆம், இது ஒரு சிறந்த பாடம், ரஷ்ய பாட்டாளி…

Lenin on the beginning of the 1905 Revolution in Russia

wisidagamage

By Raju Prabath Lankaloka This article, written by Lenin on the beginning of the 1905 Revolution in Russia, was published on 31 January, 1905. Events of the greatest historical importance are developing in Russia. The proletariat has risen against tsarism. The proletariat was driven to revolt by the government. There can hardly be any doubt now that the government deliberately allowed the strike movement to develop and a wide demonstration to be started more or less without hindrance in order to bring matters to a point where military force could…

Why has there not been a revolution?

wisidagamage

By Raju Prabath Lankaloka So-called left activists, even some self-described Marxists, often exclaim with despair and frustration: “look at how terrible things are, why hasn’t there been a revolution yet?” As Alan Woods explains in this article, those who ask such questions have no understanding of the consciousness of the masses, nor of the dialectical method, which Marxists use to penetrate below the superficial surface appearance of society, to the growing tension underneath. This article, which originally appeared in In Defense of Marxism magazine in March 2022, provides an excellent…
