The Materialist Conception of History
(1891)
I
We must confess that it was with no little prejudice that we took up the book of this Roman professor. We had been rather frightened by certain works of some of his compatriots – A. Loria, for example (see, in particular, La teoria economica della constituzione politica). But a perusal of the very first pages was enough to convince us that we had been mistaken, and that Achille Loria is one thing and Antonio Labriola (...)

Que proposaient le réformisme, le stalinisme et le trotskysme face à la montée fasciste en Allemagne ?
18 novembre 2009, par Robert Paris" L’arrivée au pouvoir des " nationaux-socialistes " signifierait avant tout l’extermination de l’élite du prolétariat allemand, la destruction de ses organisations, et la perte de sa confiance en ses propres forces et en son avenir. Comme les contradictions et les antagonismes ont atteint en Allemagne un degré extrême de gravité, le travail infernal du fascisme italien apparaîtra comme une expérience bien pâle et presque humanitaire en comparaison des crimes dont le national-socialisme (...)

Religion : its social roots and role
2 June 2008, by Robert ParisDefinitions of religion, like definitions of the state, generally tell us more about the social and political allegiances of the author of a given definition than about the true nature of religion or the state. Loyalties – that is, class interests and class outlook – are transferred into definitions; especially is this true of religion. Typical of such definitions is a theologian’s formula for Christianity as ‘the synthesis of the highest aspirations of man’. The fact that definitions are (...)

Communism and stalinism in USA
27 September 2008, by Robert ParisThe End of the Comintern And The Prospects of Labor Internationalism James P. Cannon
Comrade Chairman, Comrades:
The formal dissolution of the Communist International is undoubtedly an event of great historical significance, even though everybody understands that it is simply the formal certification of a fact that was long since accomplished. Some of the bourgeois commentators and politicians may exaggerate a bit when they speak of the dissolution of the Communist International as the (...) -
The growth of socialism, Eugen Debs
23 August 2008The growth of socialism
Eugen Debs
Not many of those schooled in old-party politics have any adequate conception of the true import of the labor movement. They read of it in the papers, discuss it in their clubs, criticise labor unions, condemn walking delegates, and finally conclude that organized labor is a thing to be tolerated so long, only, as it keeps within “proper bounds,” but to be put down summarily the moment its members, like the remnants of Indian tribes on the western (...) -
La gauche au parlement et l’extrême gauche opportuniste au syndicat sont aussi trompeurs pour le prolétariat que les réformistes de gouvernement
8 juillet 2022, par Alex, WaraaLa gauche au parlement et l’extrême gauche opportuniste au syndicat sont aussi trompeurs pour le prolétariat que les réformistes de gouvernement
UN POUVOIR DESTABILISE PAR LES ELECTIONS OU UNE PSEUDO OPPOSITION QUI CHERCHE À NOUS ENFERMER SUR LE TERRAIN BOURGEOIS DU RÉFORMISME PARLEMENTAIRE ET DES LUTTES RÉFORMISTES POUR BRISER TOUTES LUTTES DE CLASSES, TOUTES ACTIONS RÉVOLUTIONNAIRES CONTRE LE CAPITALISME ET LA GUERRE MONDIALE !

Where we stand

December 14, 2009, by Robert Paris, Levi Tiekoura Hamed
"The workers have no country. (...) Abolish the exploitation of man by man, and you eliminate the exploitation of one nation by another nation. (...) The ruling classes tremble at a communist revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. Workers of all countries, unite!"
Karl Marx (1848), The Communist Manifesto

Leon Trotsky
Communist Policy Toward Art
(1923)
It is untrue that revolutionary art can be created only by workers. Just because the revolution is a working-class revolution, it releases – to repeat what was said before – very little working-class energy for art. During the French Revolution, the greatest works which, directly or indirectly, reflected it, were created not by French artists, but by (...)
