Why hasn't there been more rebellion in the US lately? What are the indications that a popular movement may develop which leads to revolution? What is meant by revolution, anyway?Throughout the USA there is discontent. Under the apparently placid political surface there is bubbling dissatisfaction. Yet there has been only limited rebellion, all kept within the limits of Democratic-Republican politics as usual. Certainly, to most people, the possibility of a revolution — an uprising against capitalism and its state — seems distant, if not absurd. I want to argue that a revolution is quite possible (but not inevitable). And I want to clarify what revolution means.Most political theorists ask why there are occasional rebellions and revolutions. I think it is more fruitful to ask why there are not more rebellions — popular struggles leading up to revolutions. Consider the unfairness of a tiny minority — the “one percent” — ruling over and getting rich from the big majority. Consider the dangers of ecological catastrophe, economic collapse, and nuclear war, not to mention many other issues of oppression and unfairness. Why do people put up with this? Why isn’t there at least a large movement to get rid of this system?

This text is a response to the article Rojava: An Anarcho-Syndicalist Perspective by K. B., recently published on the Ideas and Action website of the North America-based Workers Solidarity Alliance (WSA). In the article, there is an attack on the Rojava revolution in the Middle East, an event in which the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) has played a key role.This response is not published in bad faith or with ill intentions towards the writer or their organisation but, rather, in order to clarify and share our thinking regards the question of anarchist support both for national liberation movements and what is, for us, a very important and inspiring struggle playing out in the Middle East. The aim is to have a frank, and comradely, debate that takes us all forward.[Français]See also:

Os resultados parciais das eleições para o governo federal em 1° turno repetem a polarização entre o PT e o PSDB dos últimos 20 anos. Votos brancos, nulos e abstenções chegaram perto de alcançar 30% dos eleitores. O congresso nacional teve pouca renovação e posições conservadoras lograram um avanço. Ao que tudo indica o governo Dilma terá no próximo dia 25 de outubro uma disputa apertada com o candidato Aécio Neves.Não temos nada a oferecer, hoje, àqueles e àquelas que pensam as eleições burguesas como um meio mais fácil, rápido e eficaz de resolução dos nossos problemas enquanto povo. O que temos a oferecer é um espaço de organização, um projeto coletivo a se construir no cotidiano das lutas por melhores condições de vida e um horizonte Socialista e Libertário. Não estamos falando de algo para um amanhã que nunca chega e sim da forja diária de valores combativos, de lutas por conquistas parciais no marco de conquistas estratégicas, de acúmulo de forças e de experiências coletivas que não são perdidas tão facilmente na troca de governos de turno.

The mainstream news is filled with stories about the horrors committed by the Islamic State (IS) in Syria and Iraq, and how the US ruling class and their state want to stop this for humanitarian reasons. But what has not been widely covered in the corporate media is why the IS came to exist; the real reasons for the US state’s new round of intervention in the Middle East; and how the US wants to isolate and likely destroy the only two forces that have been effective in fighting the IS: the Kurdish Workers’ Party (PKK) and the People’s Protection Units (YPG).This article highlights how the US state created the conditions in the Middle East in which a right-wing reactionary force like the Islamic State (formerly known as the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham) could emerge. Along with this – and central to the article – it discusses how the US state is refusing to back the only two effective forces that are fighting the Islamic State: the Kurdish Workers’ Party and the People’s Protection Units. Indeed, this article is also written to express solidarity with the People’s Protection Units that are currently fighting a key battle against the Islamic State to hold onto the city of Kobani in Syria.[Italiano]See also: |
