• Proudhon

  1 March 2009, by Robert Paris
  Article of Karl Marx PROUDHON Just as the first critical moves in every science are necessarily entangled in the assumptions of the science which they are intending to combat, so Proudhon’s work Qu’est ce que la propriété? is a criticism of political economy from the standpoint of political economy. Since the criticism of political economy forms the chief subject of interest, we need not here examine the legal section of the book, which criticizes law from the standpoint of law.

  1 March 2009, by Robert Paris
  Karl Marx THE ENGLISH REVOLUTION Pourquoi la revolution d’Angleterre a-t-elle reussi. Discours sur l’histoire de la revolution d’Angleterre, Paris, 1850.[10] The object of M.

• Comment construire un parti révolutionnaire ?

  1er mars 2009, par Robert Paris
  Par où commencer ? Lénine Mai 1901 Ces dernières années, la question : « Que faire ? » se pose avec force aux social-démocrates russes. Il ne s’agit plus de choisir une route (comme c’était le cas à la fin des années 80 et début des années 90), mais de déterminer ce que nous devons faire pratiquement sur une route connue, et de quelle façon. Il s’agit du système et du plan d’activité pratique. Il faut avouer que cette question, essentielle pour un parti d’action, relative au caractère et aux modalités de la (...)
