Why
on the 21st of January will an international meeting against
neo-free trade be held in Rome?
Because the
only answer to the aggression of neo-free trade can be the unity of
antagonist forces, non reformist parties and associations which do not
pursue profit or just “moral proposals” inside the capitalistic logic.
Outside of the concept of merely contesting masses which do not have any
political direction and in order to elaborate a transforming project which
starts amongst lower classes, Democrazia Popolare proposes a non hegemonic
meeting which does not have any personalism neither magic solutions
that
counter-revolution and lower middle classes left wing likes so much.
Seattle, Prague, Nize show us the presence of strong and lively social energies
which are fighting against policy of exploitation indicated by FMI and its
allies, in order to change society.
Our purpose is
not to direct contest at all nor we want to create “a conflict” between
different left wing forces in order to “hegemonise” somebody and something,
but we just want to give an ideological content to our political being and
behaviour which avoids illusions and waste of a lot of young (and not only)
energy. To give an ideological content should not scare us; on the contrary, it
should give us a renewing stimulus towards unity. Nowadays we need to take note
of the fact that the efforts of
conscious and leading masses in fighting to defend what neo-free trade every day
wrings from workers and people are getting exhausted; we think, therefore, that
it is ncessary and urgent to organise a common alternative which ideologically
starts from Marxism-Leninism as basis and goes beyond the simple defense of
worker’s conquests. Such alternative should not be reduced to following the
neo-reformist proposal of distributing the small piece of cake that
neo-liberalism “grants”.
We are
convinced that there are alternatives to the “neo-colonialist” wave that
wants to convince us that there is nothing to do and we have to accept the
“status quo” as a not modifiable divine plan: this certainty, on the
contrary, gives us new energy and renews our commitment. To globalise the answer
is a need: to give content to a project that starts from lower classes is a
necessity. If we failed to play our
historical role as a “collective intellectual who is organic to lower classes
” we would miss the train of history. We have the privilege of education and
we are bound not to betray lower classes, which will find its most suitable
organizational forms inside the direction of a front for socialism, a new party
which fights against the world system of inequalities. We are trying to create
useful and necessary embryos that have the duty to build the unity of the
organizations of critical and antagonist Left, by eliminating egoisms and
personalisms, as we are aware that such “choices” would certainly cause
failure and would bring us to betray all the people whom we want to represent
(in addition, we must to specify that our duty is “to emancipate” more than
to represent). Our party is, therefore, necessary for an alternative and a
concrete struggle against imperialism; it is a party that, even inside the
bourgeois-democratic system, has a project of
government and direction and wants to move forward to the construction of
socialism. That’s why on the 21st of January we want to meet in
Rome respecting every autonomy, discussing in a brotherly way with anyone still
wants to carry out a project of pluralist Liberation.
Hasta
la Victoria Siempre.
