It describes a very important trade union struggle in Sweden that involves the rights of all trade union activists. Their next demonstration/strike will take place on Friday, November 18, but the struggle will continue after that. The union is asking for messages of support.

The heat is on – global warming is a reality
By Michael Roberts   
Monday, 14 November 2005
Dramatic climate change in recent years has led scientists to the conclusion that global warming is the cause. This is bad news for the private owners of the $2trn dollar oil, gas and natural gas industries. If serious action were taken to deal with global warming, their profits would be in trouble. That is why these big monopolies have spent millions on a campaign designed to rubbish the global warming theory.

Kashmir's Ordeal - Chapter Four
By Lal Khan   
Friday, 11 November 2005
The partition of the subcontinent into India and Pakistan, apart from being a reactionary political act, caused one of the biggest bloodbaths in history. The memory of partition is still painful for those wounded by it. The liberation of Kashmir will not come from UN resolutions or the charity of the imperialist masters. It will come through the revolutionary struggle of the Kashmiri masses, which they have carried on with such courage and bravery for so long.

Friday, 11 November 2005
La jornada de Huelga General que se ha llevado a cabo el 8 de noviembre en los institutos de todo el Estado ha sido un rotundo éxito. A pesar de la actitud boicoteadora de Juntas Directivas reaccionarias de decenas de institutos y del escandaloso silencio mediático en el que varios medios de comunicación han sumergido a la Huelga, el 98% de los estudiantes hemos secundado la Huelga General en los institutos públicos. Se han celebrado más de 40 manifestaciones en todo el Estado.
 
The last but one nail in Blair’s coffin
By Phil Mitchinson   
Thursday, 10 November 2005
Tony Blair suffered his first ever defeat in parliament yesterday when 49 Labour MPs voted against the introduction of new repressive ‘anti-terror’ legislation. The defence of civil liberties, consistently under attack from the Blair government, is a vitally important question in its own right. However, as Phil Mitchinson explains, Blair’s parliamentary defeat has far wider implications for the future of the British labour movement.

The revolt of the French estates
By Greg Oxley   
Tuesday, 08 November 2005
The revolt of the youth on the estates of cities right across France reflects a deep malaise within French society, especially among the most downtrodden layers. You cannot coop up unemployed immigrant youth in the dreary estates on the outskirts of France’s cities, leave them without hope, oppressed and discriminated against, and expect life to continue as normal. This eruption of violent protest is an indication of a wider movement that will affect every layer of French society in the coming period, particularly the working class and its organisations.

De l’impasse capitaliste à la révolution socialiste - Perspectives pour la France
By La Riposte   
Tuesday, 08 November 2005
We are publishing the document, De l’impasse capitaliste à la révolution socialiste - Perspectives pour la France, which gives a very detailed account of the decline of French capitalism. It outlines how French imperialism is losing out in the global battle for markets and spheres of influence, and how this is forcing the French capitalists to attack their own working class. Within this context it is not difficult to understand the present rioting of the most downtrodden sector of French youth. It is available only in French for now, but we hope to have it in English soon.
