International Women’s Day: Is “affirmative action” the answer to discrimination against women?
By Miriam Martin in Vancouver   
Friday, 07 March 2008
The idea of guaranteed quotas for women on trade union and party committees has become fashionable. But there are no shortcut solutions to this problem. Inequality exists because of capitalism and will continue to exist as long as capitalism exists. This inequality can only be fought by a united struggle of the whole labour movement. Only when capitalism is abolished and a system of democratic planning introduced will we be able to create the material basis for all inequality and prejudice to whither away once and for all.
 
[Audio] 100 years of International Women's Day
By Barbara Humphries   
Friday, 07 March 2008
Tomorrow is International Women's Day. Although governments and political parties around the world pay lip service to women's liberation, the liberation of women remains elusive. Barbara Humphries, long-term labour movement activist and Marxist, spoke on Wednesday evening at the ULU Marxist Society in London on the origins of International Women's Day, the necessity for capitalism to divide society on the basis of sex and how the emergence of class society made women second-class citizens.

Friday, 07 March 2008
In 1972 Nixon, the US president, visited China for talks, the contents of which were kept secret. Ted Grant exposed the shameless behaviour of Stalinist China and Russia who engaged in power politics with imperialism and at the same time launching bitter attacks against each other. What a change in comparison to the approach to diplomacy defended by Lenin and Trotsky.

By Pablo Cormenzana, CMR Venezuela   
Friday, 07 March 2008
El asesinato de un grupo de guerrilleros de las FARC en Ecuador por parte del gobierno narco paramilitar de Colombia no es más que una jugada que estaba prevista en el aumento de la escalada del imperialismo norteamericano contra el proceso de cambios sociales que se vienen dando en América Latina y, particularmente, contra la revolución bolivariana de Venezuela.
 
USA: The War, the Economy & the Elections
By US Socialist Appeal Editorial Board   
Thursday, 06 March 2008
The situation in the USA is one of increasing crises. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan continue to trail on, costing nearly $275 million per day. The situation at home is one of increasing unemployment and continual crisis in the housing and credit markets. US workers will be called on to go to the polls to elect a party of big business, but this era of crises will only serve to cause more people to question the world in which they live.

Editor of Marxist.com speaks at Eton
By In Defence of Marxism   
Thursday, 06 March 2008
Alan Woods was invited to speak at Eton, the most prestigious private school in Britain (known as a "public" school in English), by the school's Orwell Society. Alan gave a very clear explanation of why society needs to be changed and why the only direction it can go in is socialism. We believe the points raised and the answers given provide a very good outline of what Marxism stands for today.

By Corriente Marxista Revolucionaria (CMR) in Venezuela   
Thursday, 06 March 2008
The assassination of Raúl Reyes and 18 other FARC guerrillas exposes the real intentions of the Colombian state and the US government. With this massacre, the Uribe government and American imperialism aim to derail the negotiations over the release of hostages and thus deny any peace in Colombia, and at the same time prepare for more acts of aggression against the unfolding revolution in Venezuela and Ecuador.

Israel storms Gaza: once again “peace” talks prepare war
By Francesco Merli   
Wednesday, 05 March 2008
The recent dramatic events in the Gaza strip are a clear indication that the Zionist ruling class that governs Israel will never concede genuine national self-determination to the Palestinian masses. These events also confirm that on a capitalist basis there is no solution to the problem. On the Palestinian side neither Hamas nor Fatah offer a solution. We must base ourselves on the perspective of renewed class struggle across the whole of the Middle East.

Russian Presidential Elections: a caricature of bourgeois democracy
By Misha Steklov in Moscow   
Tuesday, 04 March 2008
Officially Putin's right hand man, Medvedev, has won the Presidential elections with over 70% of the vote on a turnout of more than 70%. But no one seriously believes this. Many Russians have commented on the meaninglessness of the elections. Putin will remain the boss. However, for all the pomp that surrounds Putin there is a strong undercurrent of hatred against capitalism. The fact that the CPRF yet again showed that it is the only opposition to the Kremlin, confirms this.
 
Molecular changes in Russian society and the CPRF
By Misha Steklov in Moscow   
Tuesday, 04 March 2008
As background the Presidential elections we publish an analysis of the December parliamentary elections. These reflected political consolidation following on from economic stabilization after the financial crisis of 1998. These new relations are now in turn leading to a reaction. The modest gains of the CPRF reveal both the potential for an organized opposition to Russian capitalism and the path that this opposition will take in the mass organizations.
