Kawa’nın yüz yıllar önce yaktığı isyan ateşi, devletin Newroz’u yasaklamasına rağmen, Kürdistan’ın dört bir yanında harlanmaya devam ediyor.
Bugün, Demirci Kawa’nın zalim Dehaq’ın karşısına çıkarak “Ey Saray sahibi, seninle adalet için kavga etmeye geldim!” dediği gündür. Bugün, kavganın ve isyanın, direnerek özgürleşmenin günüdür. Bugün, Kawa’nın çıktığı yolda, aynı adalet kavgasıyla; yaşadığımız coğrafyada süren soykırım girişimlerine, kimyasal gazlarla katliamlara, zorla göç ettirmelere ve asimilasyon politikalarına karşı isyanı büyütmenin günüdür. Bugün Newroz’dur! read full story / add a comment

Aodhan Ó Ríordáin jets off to the States this week to try and crack America with his unique brand of hypocritical liberalism, trumpeting himself as an anti-racist icon in contrast to Trump’s policies of detention and deportation of undocumented migrants.

Το κυπριακό πρόβλημα υπάρχει και είναι άλυτο εδώ και πολλές γενιές. Η δυσκολία του εκφράζεται και με τη λαϊκή ρήση που επαναλαμβάνεται όταν δεν υπάρχει συμφωνία σε κάτι: «λες και έχουμε να λύσουμε το Κυπριακό!», αναφωνούμε.

Bribery and extortion of the piblic police and other officials is to fund the Zimbabwean state. The regime destroyed any healthy form of industry and severely cut itself from its financial feeding source. Now they have employed police, city council and Zimra to become state fund-raisers ticketing for almost everything a citizen is supposed to receive from the state but the state cannot provide. read full story / add a comment

A modo de balance del 2016, podemos concluir que durante el año se manifestaron, a groso modo, dos posiciones en referencia a cómo resistir la brutal ofensiva de los de arriba. Por un lado, la que apunta fundamentalmente a la canalización institucional de las demandas populares, con la mira puesta en las elecciones de 2017[1] y, por otro, la que se orienta al protagonismo popular y la lucha a fondo, que en estos momentos se hace imprescindible para no perder ninguna conquista.

În cele ce urmează vom încerca să formulăm câteva idei dintr-o perspectivă anarhist comunistă, în măsura în care se poate realiza într-o manieră coerentă acest lucru în prezent, asupra protestelor recente împotriva deciziilor luate de partidul de guvernământ și percepute ca un atac la adresa „statului de drept”, a parcursului post-decembrist al României și a „progreselor” înregistrate în ultimii 27 de ani.

Eleksyon ki sòt fèt yo montre nou klèman eleksyon pa yon solisyon pou peyi Dayiti. Nou ka di se pa premye fwa Batay Ouvriye ap denonse kalite eleksyon sa yo nan peyi a. Men, jodi a, nou wè aklè gagòt seri eleksyon ki sòt fèt yo montre nou se yon seleksyon politisyen reyaksyonè awogan ak arivis ki pran tèt aparèy leta. E li te previzib! Se te yon konpetisyon ant politisyen ak kolòn abolotcho epi granmanjè pou gade kiyès nan yo ki pwal dirije LETA a, nan enterè pa yo anvan, epi nan enterè tout rès klas dominan yo ak enpeyalis yo. E menm si pa t gen seleksyon, eleksyon yo t ap toujou fèt nan enterè klas dominan yo, pi patikilyèman boujwa yo, grandon yo ak patwon yo, enpeyalis yo. read full story / add a comment

Afirmo de maneira categórica: A ex-esquerda sucumbiu por ignorância ou subestimação do conceito de ideologia e a consequência direta da falsa ideia de hegemonia na sociedade brasileira. Como também afirmo há tempos, chegando ao ponto da exaustão por repetição do conceito, não trato da hegemonia de tipo superficial ou rasteira, quando se entende – de maneira equivocada – “ter hegemonia” a simplesmente impor alguns nomes para certos cargos-chave em instituições importantes dentro de uma sociedade estruturalmente desigual. Isso não é hegemonia, talvez hegemonismo, velho vício das esquerdas encantadas com a tentação autoritária. read full story / add a comment

Η θεωρία του Μαρξ αποτελεί κατά βάση κριτική της πολιτικής οικονομίας και πιο συγκεκριμένα, την κριτική του κυρίαρχου οικονομικο-πολιτικού συστήματος της εποχής της αυξανόμενης βιομηχανίας του 19ου αιώνα. Ο βιομηχανικός κόσμος, όπως και η άνοδος του καπιταλισμού, φαίνεται ταυτόχρονα να υπόσχονται έναν αυξανόμενο τεχνολογικό και οικονομικό πλούτο, αναπτύσσοντας παράλληλα πολλές αντιθέσεις εντός της κοινωνίας. Ο Μαρξ εντοπίζει αυτές τις αντιθέσεις ως καταπιεστικές και αποξενωτικές για την ανθρώπινη φύση και θεμελιώνει μια θεωρία που προτάσσει τους όρους απελευθέρωσης του ανθρώπου από αυτές. read full story / add a comment

As the civil war in Syria continues, in the territory of Rojava – in Kurdish, 'the West' – the northern Syrian Kurdish political movement is attempting to implement 'libertarian municipalism', based on the thoughts of United States (US) anarchist Murray Bookchin. Since the withdrawal of Syrian regime forces in 2012, the movement has consolidated significant territorial gains as a US ally in the anti-Islamic State (IS) struggle, while simultaneously securing Russian support. Viewed with suspicion by Turkey, Syria and Iraqi Kurdistan, the geopolitical conditions of Rojava's emergence are its greatest impediment. This article analyses Rojava's model of rule and socioeconomic development, and its theory and practice in the context of the civil war, and regional Middle Eastern and wider global geopolitics. It reflects on Rojava's place and meaning for contemporary geopolitics in the Middle East, and considers the territory's prospects, discussing its transformative potential for an otherwise troubled region. read full story / add a comment

El problema territorial en el Estado Español ha pasado a convertirse en una de las más candentes cuestiones de la actualidad. El procés catalán, masivamente apoyado en las calles por un parte muy importante de la ciudadanía, junto a los históricos reclamos de autonomía e independencia en Euskadi o Galicia, conforman los hitos principales de una situación que puede conducir a una quiebra desordenada del Régimen del 78, tanto como a su restauración autoritaria sobre la excusa de la unidad nacional. read full story / add a comment

En la realización de video foros las comunidades se reconocen a sí mismas en las practicas que realizan, se ven en el medio audiovisual como lo que son, sujetos colectivos que se organizan y transforman la realidad en la que existen, este reconocimiento empodera a las comunidades, fortalece sus identidades colectivas y reafirma sus posiciones de lucha. read full story / add a comment

Η στρατηγική μας στηρίζεται στην ενότητα των εν λόγω άμεσων δράσεων, καθώς η κάλπη δεν αποτελεί άμυνα ενάντια στο φασισμό και το μίσος ούτε συνιστά κάτι τέτοιο το Δημοκρατικό Κόμμα. Βλέπουμε ότι οι νίκες που έχουμε κερδίσει μέσα από σκληρούς αγώνες θα μπορούσαν να αντιστραφούν. Η μόνη μας ευκαιρία είναι να δημιουργήσουμε ένα κίνημα που να στηρίζεται στην εξουσία των ανθρώπων. Μια στρατηγική για να υπερασπίσουμε τις κοινότητές μας και να αμφισβητήσουμε τον Τραμπ αρχίζει με και από εμάς, τους εκμεταλλευόμενους εργαζόμενους. Μαζί κρατάμε τη λύση στο ζήτημα Τραμπ και στα μεγαλύτερα προβλήματα του καπιταλισμού, την πατριαρχία και τη λευκή υπεροχή. read full story / add a comment

A strategy to defend our communities and to challenge Trump begins with us, the exploited workers. Together we hold the solution to Trump and to the bigger problems of capitalism, patriarchy, and white supremacy. Some sections of the ruling classes may share our desire to get rid of Trump, but only so that they can put another capitalist in the White House and then have us go through this cycle of crisis all over again. While we may end up marching with these people in the streets for the next four years, we know that our allies are those who also work to build the independent power of the exploited classes, not those who want us to pin our hopes on political candidates.
We must push for greater unity of working-class social movements. We need to reach out to others who are doing organizing in our areas and talk to them about working together. We should push for social movement organizations that we are part of – like labor unions, Black Lives Matter chapters, immigrant rights organizations – to organize city-wide summits to plan how to support each other and how to coordinate opposition to Trump. Between now and January 20th, we should organize as much national discussion and coordination between social movements and revolutionary organizations as possible. We should plan for mass protests on Trump’s inauguration day, and we should see these protests as organizing tools to continue building unity and to draw people into the day-to-day organizing in our communities where we will really be building the long-term power that we need to be a threat to the state.

Η νίκη του Τραμπ θα δώσει ώθηση στις ακροδεξιές ρατσιστικές και φασιστικές οργανώσεις τόσο στις ΗΠΑ όσο και στην Ευρώπη. Ο ίδιος ο Τραμπ δεν είναι φασίστας – είναι ένας δισεκατομμυριούχος μεγιστάνας, μέρος της ελίτ των ΗΠΑ. Όμως η νίκη του έδωσε αυτοπεποίθηση στις ομάδες του Tea Party και σε επικίνδυνες οργανώσεις όπως η Κου Κλουξ Κλαν. read full story / add a comment

Trump es el síntoma, pero claramente no es la cura para esa profunda crisis que atraviesa a la sociedad norteamericana. Esos “deplorables” que pusieron su fe en Trump se verán pronto desilusionados y enfrentados a la triste realidad. read full story / add a comment
