CWO Public Meetings on Internationalism: A Balance Sheet
Between the months of January and March 2024, CWO comrades held three public meetings (in Manchester, London and Birmingham) and gave presentations at two other events (an NWBCW Liverpool public meeting and the Sheffield Radical Bookfair). In recognition of the seriousness of the world situation, the topic of discussion at each of these meetings was centred around the drive to war, the meaning of internationalism, and the tasks of revolutionaries.
Yes, Fight and Strike Against War: But Against All Capitalist Factions!
Leaflet distributed by the PCInt, in Italian and English, during the recent protests and strikes about the situation in Palestine.
Presentation and Reports from the Public Meetings in Paris and Saint-Nazaire
Paris Meeting (22 September 2023)
Welcome to the Revolutionary Internationalist Group as French Affiliate of the Internationalist Communist Tendency
Birth of the Revolutionary Internationalist Group
Everyday we receive the confirmation of what we wrote in issue 22 of Bilan et Perspectives: the renewal of workers’ struggles.(1) In the past few years, the long retreat of over five decades, seems to be approaching its end. This is evident from:
Don't Let Them Deal You a Bad Hand!
Leaflet distributed by Klasbatalo during the croupiers' strike in Montreal.
Internationalism and the War in Ukraine
The Russian invasion of Ukraine is now approaching the two month mark. Like other imperialist conflicts in the past, it has put the internationalist convictions of revolutionaries to the test.
No War but the Class War - A Call for Action
- The Russian invasion of Ukraine is no isolated act. It is the beginning of a new period of imperialist competition which threatens more generalised war in a way not seen since 1945.
No to Capitalism's Wars
Leaflet given out by comrades of the Internationalist Communist Party (Battaglia Comunista) at a demonstration in Florence on 26 March.
Against Capitalism, As Always!
Leaflet distributed by the PCInt during the "No Draghi Day" protests in Italy.
Striking Kellogg's Workers: Don't Settle for Crumbs!
Leaflet distributed by the IWG during the Kellogg's strike in Lancaster, PA.
Striking Kellogg's Workers: Don't settle for crumbs! Demand the abolition of the 2-tier system & more!
Workers' conditions and struggles
Decant the Strike from Union Control!
It has been four months since the two day walk out of the SAQ workers at the end of April of 2024. Since then the strike has been effectively stalled as the union indefinitely ‘negotiates’. Despite a fifteen day strike mandate overwhelmingly approved by the workers, the union seems entirely disinterested in pursuing any real militant action, leaving the workers themselves in a state of limbo. But in the face of a cost of living crisis, perhaps represented best by 70% of SAQ workers having part time status, it’s clear that what is required is militant working class action.
The Healthcare Strike in Sweden: Unions NEVER Fight for Real!
The strike by the Vårdförbundet (Swedish Association of Health Professionals) is over. However, the nurses, biomedical analysts and midwives have no reason to celebrate.
The conflict has been going on since April and has escalated in several stages: first a blockade of new hires and overtime (not insignificant for occupational groups with a lot of overtime), then a strike, and finally additional groups, and increased numbers, on strike.
News
2019-01-16
At least 70,000 workers from 45 factories—including tens of thousands of auto parts and assembly workers at companies that supply GM, Ford and Fiat-Chrysler—have launched a wildcat strike in the US-Mexico border town of Matamoros.
The strike is a rebellion against both the “maquiladora” manufacturing corporations and the pro-company trade unions. Over 1 million workers endure low wages and sweatshop conditions at the 3,000 “maquiladora” factories that line the Mexican side of the border and account for 65 percent of Mexican exports. It looks like it has the potential to escalate.

China has detained student organisers and factory workers in at least three cities as a crackdown against labour protests spreads across the country. Security forces stormed student and worker dormitories in Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen on Friday night, according to student activists, taking away five university students, three workers in Guangdong province, as well as several employees at a Shenzhen-based labour rights organisation.

The Russian Revolution remains a landmark event in history. For the bourgeois historians, the October Revolution is thought to be a tragedy that set back the achievements of the “democratic” February Revolution, and allowed the Bolsheviks to wreak havoc on their citizens and the world. For the Stalinists, the events of 1917 paved the way for the birth of the USSR, which they point to as a prototypical example of “socialism in one country”. In reality, the February and October Revolutions were both part of the same proletarian revolution.
