• UK: Can there be a New Left Party?
  24 March 2013, by siawi3

  Where can we turn politically? Who is on our side, to fight for an alternative? In the past we expected the Labour Party to stand for us, and with us, but no longer. The working class cannot remain without political representation, without defence, when all its victories and advances are being destroyed.

  iI shows again the narrowness and complicity of the media and of so many sections of the Left in that there are a very few people who are challenging the very idea of a sedition law. Why does India have a sedition law at all? The fact is that the Modi government has basically failed in delivering any of its promises and sees that the Indian people are quickly rendering their verdict.

• Europe : Extrême gauche : « Unité d’action » avec les islamistes ?
  27 août 2017, par siawi3

  Les islamistes peuvent-ils être associés aux révolutionnaires dans un même front anti-impérialiste ? Ce débat, qui existe depuis une quinzaine d’années, aurait pu rester strictement interne au courant trotskiste international ; mais le fait que cette thèse soit portée par un de ses principaux partis, le Socialist Workers Party (SWP) britannique, et soit désormais défendue par plusieurs tendances de la LCR française, lui donne une répercussion préoccupante.

• South Africa: Sabotaging Apartheid
  5 November 2017, by siawi3

  Kasrils’s path to politics, his experience as intelligence officer for the ANC, and his views on South Africa’s descent into neoliberalism.“The existence of a proletariat in South Africa and that legacy of struggle made us believe that unlike a lot of African or Asian countries, the result of a national liberation struggle would be strongly oriented to socialism.” “When JW de Klerk implemented democratic reforms, there was a pressure on the ANC to capitulate to big business influence.” “The collapse of the Soviet Union occurring around the same time also left the ANC a lot more vulnerable.” “When Nelson Mandela was meeting captains of industry, leaders of Western countries — and even the Chinese — he was being encouraged only to develop private enterprise and to be wary of nationalization. If the Soviet Union had been in existence, there would have been stronger options in terms of economic development.”

• The drivers and outcomes of feminization of migration in Africa
  25 July 2014, by siawi3

  Migration from Africa has historically been a male-dominated phenomenon, but the pattern has changed significantly in recent decades. African women are leaving their countries of birth to create new lives elsewhere. Economic opportunities are primarily available in childcare, domestic and sex work. Over the past few decades there has been an overall rise in ‘feminisation’ of migration in Africa as millions of women gradually became economic beings with a responsibility to contribute financially to their families. As it stands now, nearly half (49%) of all migrant workers are women.

• France : Le communisme des affranchis
  29 décembre 2018, par siawi3

  Que sont les Gilets Jaunes ? Des affranchis. Que doivent-ils devenir ? Des communistes. Dans un monde où chaque vie rêvée doit être troquée au profit d’un cauchemar quotidien, seul un communisme d’affranchis pourrait renverser l’ordre existant sans lui substituer son double.
