This website is linked to the “Internationalist Standpoint” website, which has been created by revolutionary socialists from different countries. Internationalist Standpoint is based on a common understanding of the world situation and the deep crisis of the capitalist system, and ascribes to common strategic aims about the struggle for a socialist society, based on workers’ democracy, public ownership of the means of production, a planned economy, liberty and a multiparty system.
The comrades involved are united in the struggle for mass revolutionary parties as the necessary tools to bring about social change. We consider the lack of such mass revolutionary parties as the biggest obstacle on the road to a revolutionary reshaping of society.We fight for the convergence of revolutionary forces on a principled basis. We don’t believe that unanimity should be a condition for such convergence. On the contrary, we believe that unanimity is impossible – it has always been so and it is even more so in our epoch. So, the convergence of revolutionary forces can take place only on the basis of accepting the existence of differences within the framework of commonly shared fundamental revolutionary Marxist principles and the right to express them openly, in the context of a democratic and open discussion between organisations and the struggling masses.
A correct political approach, a correct relationship to the mass movements and their consciousness and a healthy internal democratic regime are in our opinion dialectically intertwined and of equally crucial importance.
