In an uncertain world scenario, of changes in the geopolitical configuration, wars, crises and expressions of resistance, from the International Socialist League we launch the new edition of Permanent Revolution, our political and theoretical journal. With a comprehensive approach to the international situation, this edition offers tools of analysis and debate essential for those of us who struggle to transform the world from a Marxist and revolutionary perspective.
New world order or disorder?
We are living in a period marked by the transition to a new world (dis)order. The great powers are competing for global hegemony, the arms race is deepening, conflicts are proliferating, such as the war in Ukraine, and expressions of ultra-right and neo-fascism are growing stronger. In this context, Permanent Revolution analyzes Trump’s role as the executor of this new world configuration, the advance of authoritarian projects, the instrumentalization of technology by capital, the arms project of the European Union, among other central issues.
Far right and technology
In this issue we analyze the emergence of new right-wingers emerging from the heart of technological power. Entrepreneurs such as Elon Musk not only concentrate enormous productive resources, but also advance as direct political actors, supporting and articulating with reactionary governments such as Trump’s. The article “Far right and Technology” elaborates on this phenomenon from a Marxist perspective of capitalist innovation.
Fascism and democratic crisis
In an essential historical and political journey, this edition also deals with the development of fascism as an ideology of barbarism, from its origins to its current manifestations and the workers’ and popular response against these expressions. Faced with a bourgeois democracy in crisis, authoritarian and repressive expressions are gaining ground. What is the task of revolutionaries in the face of a democracy that has lost its usefulness and the need to overcome the ultra-right? Permanent Revolution offers theoretical and strategic keys to this urgent debate.
Palestine, the Nakba and the barbarism of the 21st century
The magazine also coincides with a new anniversary of the Nakba. The article The Palestinian Holocaust with the mark of ethnic cleansing driven by Trump and Netanyahu describes and deepens on the colonial and racist viciousness of Zionism, driven by the State of Israel with the support of the Trump administration to advance its “Final Solution”. An urgent call for internationalist solidarity and active repudiation of this barbarism.
A collective, political and academic material of the highest level.
Permanent Revolution is not just another publication. It is a unique theoretical and political contribution in the field of the elaboration of the international left. With a global and militant perspective, it is intended as a tool for training, intervention and revolutionary construction.
It is also the result of a collective work between different national sections of the International Socialist League in the five continents, and the collaboration of sister organizations and personalities who contributed to the production of this material, adding other views and perspectives from different parts of the planet.
