Escrito en 1848 por dos revolucionarios de 28 y 30 años, olvidado o revitalizado según el momento histórico, el Manifiesto Comunista se irradió por todo el globo y se tradujo a todas las lenguas, excediendo largamente la esfera del movimiento obrero y las izquierdas. Incluso después del fin del comunismo soviético y la declinación de los partidos marxistas, el Manifiesto se afirma como el clásico político más influyente, con mucho que decir...

El bolchevismo se caracteriza por utilizar todos los medios y tácticas al servicio de la estrategia de construir el partido, movilizar a los obreros y tomar el poder. Las demás corrientes del movimiento obrero se caracterizan por lo opuesto: confundir estrategia con táctica, y elevar esta última a estrategia permanente. La historia del bolchevismo es una lucha constante por imponer los medios y las tácticas adecuadas para cada momento de la lucha...

El enorme impacto de la Revolución rusa hizo que en los partidos socialdemócratas de toda Europa comenzasen a surgir agrupaciones de izquierdas, que acabaron convirtiéndose en los diferentes partidos comunistas, atrayendo a millones de trabajadores que empezaban a ver posible la construcción de otro mundo, sin desigualdad y pobreza. Sin embargo, la falta de experiencia de los jóvenes dirigentes comunistas provocaba que siguieran una política...

Hello, thank you for purchasing University Media Journal's fifth issue. This issue took ten months to produce, and it is our first international issue thanks to our poets in Africa. We are incredibly proud to enter the relationships of Black people. When we speak of relationships, we are referring to romantic, friendly, familial, and everything in between. The narrative of Black relationships tends to be shown through a filtered lens. One which revolves...

Whenever a collection of Marx's works is published, a few questions inevitably arise. Is Marx still relevant today? Do we still have something to gain from reading the great man's thoughts about economic structures? To put this question another way - if Marx was wrong, in the end, about what communism would look like, then why do we still read his writings?
One way to answer this is by looking at the similarities between Marx's world and ours. The...

"Communization" means something quite straightforward: a revolution that starts to change social relations immediately. It would extend over years, decades probably, but from Day One it would begin to do away with wage-labor, profit, productivity, private property, classes, States, masculine domination, and more. There would be no "transition period" in the Marxist sense, no period when the "associated producers" continue furthering economic growth...

When the world held its breath It is 25 years since the end of the Cold War, now a generation old. It began over 75 years ago, in 1944long before the last shots of the Second World War had echoed across the wastelands of Eastern Europe with the brutal Greek Civil War. The battle lines are no longer drawn, but they linger on, unwittingly or not, in conflict zones such as Iraq, Somalia and Ukraine. In an era of mass-produced AK-47s and ICBMs, one such...

A doscientos años del nacimiento de Marx, el marxismo es el nombre de una derrota. La modernidad democrática del capital, con sus voceros y sus propagandistas, se ocupa de recordárnoslo una y otra vez: lo presentan como un error grosero y además una utopía criminal. A él se adhiere otra palabra maldita, "comunismo", un espectro que carga con el peso de un estigma. Pero el marxismo, dice Alain Badiou en este texto inspirador, sigue proponiendo...

In 1979, the Sandinista government established itself in power in Managua, the capitol of Nicaragua.

Attempting to restructure and recover the underdeveloped economy, Sandinisas introduced a wide range of reforms and a cultural revolution.
Considering the Sandinistas to be...

Stephen Hanson traces the influence of the Marxist conception of time in Soviet politics from Lenin to Gorbachev. He argues that the history of Marxism and Leninism reveals an unsuccessful revolutionary effort to reorder the human relationship with time and that this reorganization had a direct impact on the design of the central political, socioeconomic, and cultural institutions of the Soviet Union from 1917 to 1991. According to Hanson, westerners...

Ahora, pasado el tiempo, no pasa un día que no aporte nuevas pruebas sobre lo frágil e inconsistente que fue ese despertar, cuyas múltiples...

One of the most notorious works of modern times, as well as one of the most influential, Capital is an incisive critique of private property and the social relations it generates. Living in exile in England, where this work was largely written, Marx drew on a wide-ranging knowledge of its society to support his analysis and generate fresh insights. Arguing that capitalism would create an ever-increasing division in wealth and welfare, he predicted...

Socialism is tempting, seductive, alluring. It comes in many forms and speaks in many different ways. It appeals to people who value fairness, who value freedom, and who value security. It comes in many varieties, sometimes clothing itself in the dress of nationalism, sometimes in the garb of environmentalism. Yet there is one single, unifying feature — subjugation of the individual to the collective. While Americans have always been skeptical of...

Nunca se cansó Andrés Saborit de escribir sobre Julián Besteiro. Y en cada texto, podemos encontrar una nueva aportación. En esta ocasión realiza una breve semblanza donde incluye un "resumen de una vida" con gran rigor y utilidad, donde dejó escrita la intencionalidad del mismo: "puede servir de base para estudiar la vida y la obra de tan preclaro patricio". Además, defiende a Besteiro partiendo de su esencia socialista, porque "no fue un...

Philosopher and economist Karl Marx was known for his theory of Marxism on which the modern form of communism is based. Communism can be defined as the thought of economic equality where the concept of private property doesn't exist. The vision of communism was built by Marx on the technological and human possibilities that were available and visible at his time while also considering the fact that it would be adopted by the new socialist society.

Como Marx expone en el prólogo a la Crítica de la Economía política, la finalidad que Marx y Engels perseguían al escribir La ideología alemana era "desentrañar conjuntamente el antagonismo entre nuestra concepción y la de la ideológica de la filosofía alemana, en realidad, ajustar cuentas con nuestra conciencia filosófica anterior. Y el propósito se llevó a cabo bajo la forma de una crítica de la filosofía posthegeliana". En carta...
