Against austerity policies we are linking worker struggles all over Europe


For over a year now the Network that the USI helped to build has had its own Declaration of Principles and its own organizational level, albeit partial for now.

Today is an important moment for the USI in the building of real opposition to the austerity that is being imposed by the IMF-ECB and EU... which workers and citizens have been opposing for months in various European countries. For this reason the USI is organizing a new meeting of the Network in Rome, which will be a unique opportunity for labour activists within alternative syndicalism to meet comrades who, on an international level, are building opposition and social conflict against the plans of capital.

The meeting of the European Network of Alternative and Grassroots Syndicalism will take place in Rome on 26 and 27 January 2013 in the CUB premises at Via Ponzio Cominio 56, reachable by Metro line A (get off at Lucio Sestio).

The meeting will see the participation of the Spanish CGT, Solidaridad Obrera, also from Spain, a Catalonian union, Solidaires from France, the French CNT, SUD from Switzerland, TIE from Germany and hopefully the ESE from Greece.

For this occasion the three Italian unions which are members of the Network (CUB, CIB Unicobas and the USI) have prepared a joint document and will be proposing a joint day of action to be held on May Day.

The USI will also be proposing a European conference on the theme of Education in late June, preferably in Rome.

No government can save us. Only the working class free itself. We need to make a revolution. We need to overthrow capitalism and build libertarian communism, worldwide. For this, the labour movement needs to be built anew. We need to organise in the workplace and rebuild our unions from the ground up. We need rank and file control. The practices by which we build our movement will be the ones that form the basis of the new society.

The yearnings for justice and freedom of the Chicago Martyrs will roam the streets again this coming May Day, together along the oppressed of the world, in their struggle for a better future.

Capitalism in 2021 still hasn’t defeated the coronavirus pandemic and the downward trend in wage rises in advanced countries hasn’t changed. Social inequality continues to increase, while racism and misogyny are entrenched state policy. In many countries, capitalist democracy is crumbling. The radical workers’ movement which is being born is still young and weak, but the material conditions are helping it develop. This workers’ movement needs to unite internationally in order to overthrow capitalism and end all oppression worldwide. Anarchists need to be part of this movement, for it is our home.

The struggle against the coronavirus pandemic is one that can only be won by an act of unprecedented human solidarity. Through that act the values of a new world can be born. But turning those values into reality requires the working class. Only the working class: global, multi- racial, multicultural and gender diverse, has the potential strength to uproot the power of capital at its source and steer a new course. We can start by defending health and safety for all workers and by fighting for adequate resources for the health care system. We can extend the struggle by defending civil liberties and opposing austerity. And we can culminate it with a revolution to overthrow capitalism and create libertarian communism, worldwide.

On May Day we commemorate the past, but we also look to the future. There is no reason to be confident in capitalist economic recovery. There are many reasons to struggle against the horrors of oppression, unemployment, environmental devastation and war that capitalism dishes up. Workers can solve these problems for good. We can make a revolution and, as we do, the mass democratic workers' organisations we create will be the basis of the new society, worldwide. In this new society, each will contribute according to their ability and each receive according to their need. We will have no need of a State apparatus to enforce the dictates of a privileged elite. We will live a life of peace, freedom and equality. We have nothing to lose but our chains.

imageChinese Workers Fight Back Jan 21 by MACG 3 comments

The working class of Australia has no interest in a war against Chinese workers and Chinese workers have no interest in a war with us. Militarization and war is a ruling class game. We have far more in common with each other than either of us do with the ruling classes of our countries. And just as so many Chinese workers (under much harsher conditions than our own) have had the bravery to fight the bosses and politicians who exploit and oppress them, rather than embrace a nationalist fight against ‘foreign forces’, we should also recognise that our main enemy is here at home. They manage our workplaces and make our laws. The only war worth fighting is the class war against them.

image(DE/ENG) India: biggest general strike in human history Jan 11 by die plattform 0 comments

January 8, 2020 will go down in the history books as the world’s largest 24-hour general strike to date. In India, more than 250 million workers went on strike during the general strike or “Bharat Bandh”, which was joined by ten major unions as well as a number of independent associations. Associations organising bank employees, farmers and teachers, but also the student movement played a leading role. The electricity supply was also affected, with up to 1.5 million people going on strike in the power stations. The same applies to local and long-distance public transport. Across the country there were also rail blockades.

imageEducation for revolution: Anarcho-syndicalist pedagogy for South Africa Nov 21 by Mandy Moussouris and Shawn Hattingh 5 comments

Mandy Moussouris and Shawn Hattingh explain the roots and principles of anarcho-syndicalism and what these mean for the practice of worker education in movements inspired by these principles and traditions. Emphasising the democratic practice, working class rooted, organic and critical nature of the pedagogy, they explain that the practice seeks to intersect employed and unemployed women and men. Practically, the education provides a platform for post-revolutionary practice of direct democracy at the point of production and, thus, naturally included practical skills such as trades, accounting and sciences.

imageThe people’s movement desperately needs working class solidarity Jan 06 by Zaher Baher 0 comments

This article is about the lack of working class’ support to the people’s movement. It analyses the current situation that surrounds working class and the factors that may contribute in weakening it almost everywhere. In the meantime the article considers the rule of working class as essential and crucial in prevailing any movement or any uprising.

imageFrom union renewal to a self-managed society Dec 13 by Lucien van der Walt 0 comments

Trade union renewal is essential but should not be reduced to democratising structures or new recruitment methods. Renewal should centre on a bottom-up movement based on rank-and-file reform movements, and the direct action of workers as a precondition for radical redistribution of power and wealth to workers, community assemblies and councils in a self-managed, egalitarian order based on participatory planning and distribution by need. It must be rooted in an anarcho-syndicalist understanding that unions can profoundly change society.
