Nearly thirty
years have passed since Deng first introduced his “market reforms”.
What started as an attempt to stimulate growth within a planned
economy has ended up by establishing capitalist relations in the
Chinese economy. How did all this happen and where is China going
today?

Labour suffered a heavy defeat in England's local council elections,
but Blair is desperately clinging on to office for now. In an attempt to
cover up Labour's losses and to shore up his support Blair quickly moved
to sack several high ranking ministers and promote loyal supporters.
What Blair has installed is a Final Days administration. It is a bunker
cabinet. Blair is finished and so is Blairism. These elections
illustrate a growing class polarisation taking place in British society.

The Marxist tendency
in the Danish labour movement, that publishes the journal Socialistisk Standpunkt, recently came under
attack. An attempt was mounted to expel its supporters from the
Socialist Youth Front (SUF), an attempt which
failed. It reveals the growing influence of the Marxists in Denmark.

 The recent announcement by the Evo
Morales government in Bolivia of the “nationalisation” of the
country’s hydrocarbon resources has shaken the multinationals. This
move, although in reality not complete nationalisation, is a
reflection of the overall revolutionary wave sweeping across Latin
America.

On the 80th anniversary of
the 1926 general strike in Britain we look at what led to it and why
it eventually was defeated. In spite of the tremendous militancy of
the British working class, the top leaders of the trade union
movement proved to be only too willing to compromise and get the
workers back to work.

Eighty years ago an earthquake shook the very
foundations of British capitalism. In the greatest display of militant power in
its history, the British working class moved into action in the General Strike
of 1926. For 9 days, from May 3, not a wheel turned nor a light shone without
the permission of the working class. In such a moment, with such power, surely
it ought to have been possible to have transformed society? How can such a
position have ended in defeat? (by Phil Mitchinson, originally published in May
2001)

May
Day this year in Venezuela was characterised by the profound division
between revolutionaries and counter-revolutionaries. While the CTV desperately tried to
mobilise their supporters to show their hostility towards the
Bolivarian government, the new revolutionary
confederation of trade unions, the UNT, organised a massive rally of
hundreds of thousands of workers and youth.
