 Hello comrades and welcome back to Marxist Voice, the podcast of The Communist. So we've only got less than three weeks to go until the founding Congress of the RCP, so the clock is ticking. But I've seen a real flurry of activity across the section of recruitment, education, fundraising and so on. So I think we're definitely in good stead for that. For this week's episode, we're going to be focusing on the question of the international, why we need an international and also, yeah, the launch of the Revolutionary Communist International, which will be taking place this June. So we're very pleased to be joined by Jorge Martín, who is a member of the international secretariat of the soon-to-be Revolutionary Communist International, as well as a writer for marxist.com and the magazine Indefensive Marxism. Hi Jorge, how's it going? Yeah, fine, fine. I've been busy. One of the things I've been doing is I've been working on an article which has appeared now on Indefensive Marxism magazine, the latest issue about Franz Fanon, which was very interesting to research. I have learned a lot, I have to say. Yeah, I remember you spoke about that at the recent Revolution Festival, didn't you, last year? What was it that you were reading in particular? Was it works by Franz Fanon himself? Yeah, I read quite a lot of Franz Fanon and a few of the biographies that are some that are better than others. But I found it very interesting, I knew very little about the Algerian Revolution and also Franz Fanon has been completely distorted in academia and in post-colonial circles. So I disagree with quite a few of the things that Fanon said about strategy and so on. But Fanon really, if you read Fanon, it has nothing to do with the ideas that have been ascribed to him by many ideas of decolonizing the mind or anything like this. So Fanon was not about changing people's minds in order to liberate themselves, but through the process of actual revolutionary struggle for liberation, people would change. That was his argument. So yeah, I found it very interesting and also about the role of Stalinism in the Algerian war, the French Communist Party played a dreadful role. It was very interesting. Yeah, I remember myself actually when I studied politics at university in Leeds. I remember Franz Fanon was on the syllabus for one of the courses that we did and they really try and emphasize, and as you said, distort all of the weak sides of Fanon, completely neglecting the fact that he was a revolutionary. Yeah, they totally focus on essentially this post-modern idea of changing a consciousness and therefore changing the world and so on. So yeah, I think that is quite prevalent in academia. The one text that they use the most is Black Skin's White Mask, which is a text that he wrote as his thesis for his studies in psychiatry. It wasn't meant to be a political text or anything like this. It does analyze from a psychiatric point of view the impact of colonization and racism on people's consciousness. It doesn't advocate any solutions or any course of action. It's not a book of revolutionary strategy, but it's been taken as such by some people who have nothing to do with revolutionary strategy at all. Yeah, well, I look forward to reading the article and yeah, well run the subject actually. Yeah, in the sense of Marxism issue, is it 45 now? 45. 45 is out now actually. It arrived in the office this week. So do you want to maybe just go through what the focus of this is? Well, it has a very interesting, very nice cover. Very striking cover again. The main focus is the African Revolution. There is an article by, well, there's an editorial by Alan or precisely on the question of why we need a revolutionary communist international. But then there's a very interesting article by Ben Curry on the Ethiopian Revolution, 50th anniversary this year, about which I knew very little and I found very, very interesting. Then there's my article on Franz Fanon's, it's not about his whole life and ideas, but it's mainly about the wretched of the earth, his main text of revolutionary strategy. Then there is a text by Jules Legendre, a comrade from France about the crimes of French imperialism in Cameroon, which I also found very interesting. I knew very little about it. And this, while the Algerian war is more well known in France and elsewhere, but the struggle for independence of Cameroon and the crimes of French imperialism in Cameroon are not very well known. I found it very interesting. And there's a couple of reprints from Trotsky and Lenin, Lenin's thesis on the colonial question for the communist international, the second congress, which is very interesting. And also a very little known text by Trotsky about the slogan of a black republic in South Africa. And he writes a letter to South African revolutionaries commenting on this debate about this question, which I think is very relevant for today. Definitely, yes. So if listeners want to get their hands on a copy of the Indefensive Marxism magazine, then we definitely urge you to do so. If you head to communist.red forward slash subscribe or forward slash magazine, you can set up a subscription there and you can also get a combination deal tied in with the communist newspaper. It's called the Full Communist Package, which I really like. If you're anywhere else outside of Britain or the UK, then you can head to marxist.com and find out more information there. But yeah, how about we jump in then to the main topic of discussion for today, which is, yeah, why do we need an international? What would you say it's that? Well, the basic idea is the capitalist system is a worldwide system. As Martin Engels already explained in the Communist Manifesto, capitalism conquers the whole world, brings the whole world and its domination and creates world politics, world culture, world economy. Therefore, the socialist transformation of society can only be international. And from the very beginning of our movement, our movement is international. One of the first things that Marx and Engels did was to create the International Working Men's Association, the first international organization for gathering together the forces of the workers movement. So that's, I would say, the first and foremost reason why we need an international. If you're a communist, if you're a revolutionary, you can't just think about changing society in one country. It's not possible and it's not feasible. It doesn't correspond to material reality. I will say that's the first one. The second one reason why we need an international is because there isn't one. There is no international communist organization today, as it might have existed in the past. You had the first international, the second international, the third international. You had the fourth international, which never fully developed. But most times in history you had one or perhaps even two, you had the communist international, at the same time you had the reformist international. But right now there is no such thing. There is no international organization dedicated to the revolutionary transformation of society. And we think that one is completely required and we're going to take steps towards that end. And yeah, we recently had an episode on our podcast borrowed from the specter of communism, where Fred Weston gave a really, really good, detailed history actually of the international from Marx to Lenin, looking at the lessons of the communist international as well. I really like that episode. So yeah, if comrades want to check that out, head to the previous episode and give it a listen. But yeah, we've been organized as the international Marxist tendency now since what, 1992, I believe, is that right? Yes. Why are we launching? Although the original name of the international was the committee for a Marxist international. We changed to international Marxist tendency, but I can't remember the year, in the late mid-1990s, perhaps something like that. I didn't know that. You lent me new every day. But why is it that we've decided to launch the revolutionary communist international now in 2024? We think that the step forward is required. You see, at the time of the 2008 crisis, which was a turning point for world capitalism, there was a massive revulsion against the austerity measures that followed, the banks had been bailed out, state money had been used to save the capitalist economy, and now working people were being made to pay. And there were big movements everywhere. You had the 15M Indignados movement in Spain, the Sintagma Square occupation in Greece, and out of these massive movements, big anti-austerity demonstrations in Britain, and out of these movements, the Arab Spring, which was also part of the same process. But out of these whole movements, the political expression that came out of that was a whole number of new political formations that were claiming to be anti-austerity were in a confused way articulating this anti-capitalist feeling. Podemos in Spain, Syriza in Greece, Corbyn here in Britain, and Sanders in the United States, Melenchon in France. But the problem with these formations that became very popular, and hundreds of thousands of people joined these movements, is that they spoke in very radical terms, opposition to everything that's existing and so on. But deep down, the program was not really a program to overthrow capitalism. It was a program to introduce a series of reforms and measures within the limits of capitalism, like tax the rich, spend more in healthcare and education without realizing that within the limits of capitalism most of these reforms were impossible to carry out. Therefore, as a consequence, most of these movements ended up betraying the aspirations of the people who supported them. The most striking case was Syriza in Greece, came to power in January, January, February 2015, and in six months, on the basis of anti-austerity program, rejection of the memorandum of the Troika, the Troika being the European Union, the IMF and the European Central Bank, which had imposed these limits to spending, fiscal austerity and so on. So they came to power on the basis of that program, rejection of austerity, in six months' time they completely capitulated and started implementing this program, despite the fact that the majority of the Greek people had voted against the memorandum in a national referendum. So basically what we see is the limits of reformism. Reformism in the epoch of capitalist crisis is reformism without reforms or rather reformism with counter reforms. Throughout that period of time, the IMT, the International Marxist Tendency, was part of these movements, because we wanted to connect with hundreds of thousands of people who started in the process of rejecting capitalism, always maintaining our criticism. We never abandon our program. We warned from the beginning that yes, we are against austerity, but in order to really overcome, austerity does come from the crisis of capitalism. It's not the whim of this or that other politician that wants to introduce cuts, but this is inherent in the crisis of capitalism and therefore the solution is to overthrow capitalism. We always proposed and put forward a communist point of view, revolutionary point of view. But now all these movements have collapsed and they have betrayed because of their own weakness or rather the weakness of their leaders and the ideas that were at the leadership of these movements. And there's a new generation of people who have lived through this period. I mean, 2008 is now what? 14? No, no, not 14. Is it 16 years ago? 16 years ago. Anyone who is now, say, under 25 or under 30, like me, for example, like yourself, have lived all their lives in this particular period of capitalism. Crisis, war, imperialism, the impact of the COVID pandemic, which revealed the inability of capitalism to deal with serious emergency health, emergency problem. And they have also lived through the experience of this previous wave of struggle and politicization and many of them have no time for this and there's a rejection even of the idea of socialism which has become associated with people like Bernie Sanders and people like that who in the end capitulated and supported Clinton, the capitalist democratic party, in effect they support Biden and so on. So there's a whole layer of people now particularly young people, students, workers and so on who are moving towards the ideas of communism and we think that the time is right for the IMT to take a step forward. The qualitative leap have a clear communist identity to go with our ideas and to try to connect with this mood that exists try to offer this layer of people an organization where they can develop their ideas be educated theoretically and participate in a worldwide struggle for communism. This is the idea behind the launch of the revolutionary communist international which is already in its early stages but it's already had a big impact everywhere. And this process of relaunching the organization isn't just taking place on an international scale it's also taking place within each of the individual national sections of the RCI. We've got examples like obviously here in Britain, we're launching the revolutionary communist party next month hence this podcast series but also you've got examples like Switzerland Sweden, Denmark, Canada Brazil, across the world basically I was wondering maybe if you want to go into any of the recent successes that stands out from this campaign that we've launched. Yeah definitely this is a process that's taking place everywhere it might be at different stages of its development in different countries. I will argue for instance that the move towards communism is more advanced in countries like say the United States or Brazil where you've had already in power right-wing demagogues who are calling everyone a communist they're calling Biden a communist they're calling anyone who's in opposition and this has increased the interest for communist ideas ironically. And inadvertently it's made it less scary because it's such a common mass phrase. And also there's another factor that the fall of Stalinism was when 30, 30, 35 years ago this is ancient history for most people communism is no longer scary I mean even in the United States where there's been decades of an anti-communist scare campaign this doesn't cut mustard with most young people who instead of the crisis of capitalism instead of the crisis of communism which is in reality the crisis of Stalinism what they have lived through all their lives is the crisis of capitalism so yeah going back to your question we have been very successful hundreds of people are joining the different national sections of the IMT soon to be the revolutionary communist international on Saturday for instance the comrades in Canada which are launching the revolutionary communist party as well under the same name they had rallies across the country to announce a new party and these were very successful I think they must have been 200 or more in Toronto 200 or more in Montreal and then smaller rallies all across the country this is a national organization this is probably the biggest communist organization that's ever been in Canada for many decades which says a lot about the weakness of the communists left in Canada but also of the genuine interest that there is about communism also at the weekend we had the Congress of the Irish section this is a small group of comrades but one that has I think more than traveled in membership in one year more than that I think they've timed membership by seven actually they started out with five people at the start of last year I think and now they're 35 paid at membership this is obviously a very small force but you can see that there's been an exponential growth and it shows that everywhere there is an interest for communism and we are connecting with it also at the weekend the US comrades had the launch of their new paper which is called the communist as in Britain and they marked that with big rallies in some places in Seattle in Philadelphia in Minneapolis in New York big public meetings then big rallies and then big paper sales hundreds of papers were sold in Seattle alone I think and yeah I find it very interesting for anyone who is a communist the growth of a communist organization in the United States is particularly interesting you you get this idea of sometimes in the left that the United States is one reactionary pro-imperialist block and it's not things are changing in the United States as well and amongst many young people not only students but also young workers we have comrades who work at UPS we have building workers, auto workers and so on that are being becoming interested in the idea of of communism most definitely and the general mood in the United States is one where people say that no one thinks that the system is working people might have different ideas about what to do about it but no one thinks that the system is working and a sizeable minority thinks that the solution is an overhaul of the whole system and the struggle for communism and yes in this context we are having a successful campaign this campaign the are you a communist campaign of asking people directly if you are a communist you need to get organized it's been going on now for a year or just over a year I think it started in April last year started in Britain and then it spread internationally but everywhere as you say in Sweden in Denmark in Switzerland most unlikely place of all in Brazil everywhere is having and yeah I would say people are flocking to our ranks we have to have a sense of proportion we're still a small organization but I'd say that the growth that the IMT has had in the last one year is very significant the fastest rate of growth that we've ever had really yeah well the future definitely bodes well I think in that regard and yeah just to bring it back to the Irish congress I was speaking to a comrade who was actually a visitor to the congress the excitement, the termination was really palpable in the room all of the comrades feel like they are part they feel responsible for carrying these tasks out they discuss the political documents, the political perspectives, the organizational tasks and so on and yeah I think the goals that they set for themselves were incredibly audacious they've set themselves a target I think of having 100 comrades in the Irish on the island of Ireland both in the north and the south by their next congress at the same time next year and also to fund their first ever full time revolutionary which I think would be a huge step to them and it's basically come out of nowhere as I said five comrades at the start of last year look at what can be achieved on the basis of audacity of a strong understanding of the ideas of Marxism and so on so yeah if comrades want to read more about that I'm sure there'll be a report online fairly soon I will echo your point that audacity and boldness is extremely important and with that you can build because these people are out there there are people who already consider themselves communists in one way or another they might not have a fully rounded understanding of Marxist theory might not have read a lot although some of them have well read people instinctively have been reading Lenin, Marx and so on and that's the key to our success but I will say there is another pillar to this and that's the question of the importance of theory it's not enough to be enthusiastic, it's not enough to want to transform the world as Lenin said without revolutionary theory there is no revolutionary movement and I would like to plug the Lenin book that we have published, Lenin book by Roch Sewell and Alan Woods is a biography of Lenin but it's really it's not a biography, it's called in defense of Lenin it's a biography but it's also a history of his ideas, the political struggles that he was involved in and I think it's an excellent tool if you read this book you will be well educated on a whole number of different subjects about how to build a party a whole number of debates about imperialism the question of the national question, the Russian revolution the debates after the revolution the struggle of Lenin against bureaucratism, I'm currently revising the translation into Spanish of the book which allows me to go more into detail into the book and I will say that anyone who's joined the revolutionary communist international, the revolutionary communist party recently they should read this book, anyone who's been in the movement for a long time they should read this book because they will learn a lot, myself included and I will yeah, I strongly recommend it as you say enthusiasm is the basis on which we grow and allows us to go forward but that needs to be combined with a serious grounding on Marxist theory and I will say that the in defense of Lenin book is a very good place to start yeah definitely, I'd like to echo that as well and if comrades would like to get their hands on a copy of that wellreadbooks.co.uk if you're in Britain, yeah I'd like to move on then to a question that we've received from a listener actually he wants to know a bit about how the international works in practice, how it relates to the different national sections so I'll just play that now and I'd like to hear your thoughts on it Hello comrades this is Eric from The Croydon Communists I hope you're doing well recently our branch created a new TikTok page and we've gotten messages from across the world from Chile to Azerbaijan to Kazakhstan to even Madagascar and my question was how does our national section of the IMT soon to be RCI interact with these different sections of the international, thank you yeah I think that's a great question Eric thanks for sending that in and yeah it's great to hear that you're having success using social media to build the party what do you think, how do the different national sections of the RCI relate to each other yeah I will say that this is a very important question because the way we organize we're not just a collection a federal grouping or a collection of national organizations that come together once a year and we have similar ideas, no no no we're a world party, we're the world party socialist revolution and this is how it was always conceived the third international was a world party and they had meetings in the communist international congress which lasted for 2-3 weeks they had say a commission on the work of the French party and the communist international as a whole looked at that and issued advice and instructions and political discussions about the most important things that were happening around the world and how the different national sections were intervening in those so yeah we are an international party and how does that work where we base ourselves on the Leninist idea of democratic centralism democratic centralism also applies at an international level so therefore the IMT and now the revolutionary communist international has a world congress which meets every 2 years in this case we're now meeting one year from the last world congress all the changes are taking place but the international congress the world congress meets every 2 years with delegates elected by all the national sections in proportion to the membership and there are documents that are produced in advance these documents are discussed throughout the membership of the whole international the most important political questions are put to the debate comrades, delegates national sections are free to present amendments, changes alternative documents if need be and these are fully discussed the world congress finally a joint political understanding is arrived at, documents finalized and voted democratically and that becomes the line of the international for the next 2 years in between international world congresses there's an international executive committee which meets every 6 months approximately and decides on all important matters in between world congresses and then there is a permanent international secretariat based here in London which leads politically the international on a day to day basis issues statements about important things happening in the world say the Israeli assault on Gaza the war in Ukraine and things like this as and when this happened so basically we are a world party of socialist revolution and that gives us I would say it gives us a lot of strength and makes us superior to other organizations which have a narrow national point of view or maybe part of some international grouping a grouping in which every national section does whatever they want without any regard or reference to international joint discussion this also allows us to pull together the experience of comrades, communists intervening in the movement in different countries to see what are the common threats what can we learn from each other that's the idea of a world party that's how the IMT organizes that's how the revolutionary communist international will organize sorry as of its founding congress which is taking place in June as you said earlier from the 9th to the 16th of June the founding of the revolutionary communist international will take place at the world congress which will be broadcast live internationally the congress will have a part which is a discussion of our documents chiefly the manifesto of the revolutionary communist international which I recommend everyone to read it's been published in advance discussion about organization but also we'll have another part which we call the world school of communism which is a four day discussion with over 15 or 20 discussions 21 I think about different aspects of revolutionary communist theory which will also be broadcast online and which people can attend from the comfort of the front room but also at watch parties collective watching events that we organizing all over the world and I will really recommend people to attend and encourage people to attend to register I think the website is worldschoolofcommunism.com I think it's the school of communism.com schoolofcommunism.com and you can go there there's a list of all the talks but also reading material that you can use in order to prepare for these discussions and there's the dates there's all the details are in there it will also be translated into a whole number of different languages so it will be a really really exciting a wholly international event in its character. The array of talks does look very interesting and I see you've got things covering philosophy dialectics, materialism economics, the Russian revolution and why it degenerated into Stalinism various talks about history oppression, the national question strategy and tactics war and imperialism, the state this goes on I think it's going to be a really fantastic event many of these things have an historical character for instance the discussion on war and imperialism is based on Lenin's writings even the First World War but they also have an implication for today the position one takes in relation to the war in Ukraine the position one takes in relation to the Middle East and so on, this is informed it's not necessarily directly determined but if you don't understand the history of the movement and the theoretical discussions that have gone on before you'll probably be lost in taking a position today and it really is going to be a truly international event as well, I've just been looking actually recently at the list of different countries from which people have signed up to attend this event, this is just a selection of random ones, Afghanistan Bangladesh, Chile, China Egypt, Haiti India, Indonesia, Iraq Myanmar, New Zealand Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Zimbabwe the list goes on, we're going to have people from literally every single continent there so yeah, I'm really looking forward to it and yeah, once again schoolofcommunism.com if you want to sign up but yeah, I want to move on to another question perhaps our last question maybe is of the day so yeah, you mentioned that we have an international centre, that's what you work for, maybe our listeners would like to know what is it the international centre does what do they produce what do they do in their day to day work what does that look like? Yeah, obviously revolutionary communist international the IMT up until now is quite a large organisation with sections in how many sections do we have? More than 30 we have more than 30 countries where there are formal sections already but we have work in over 60 countries around the world at different levels of development and so obviously there's a whole number of logistics and technical aspects of this like the organising of world events organising of international meetings the coordination of the work of all the sections but first and foremost our work is political the development of political analysis political ideas and political education we're just the basis of the existence of the revolutionary communist international really and so we produce the international centres in charge of the production of the books well read is becoming the foremost publisher of Marxist literature not only our own material but also the classics of Marxism which is no longer published by anybody else really the publication of the magazine The theoretical magazine which comes out quarterly in defence of Marxism which is also published in a whole host of different languages French, German, Spanish Portuguese Urdu in Pakistan Russian and a whole number of Italian a whole number of other languages translated into the publication of the daily website of the international marxist.com which is a varied collection of historical reprints but mostly political analysis of what's happening today in depth political analysis of say the recent elections in Turkey the development of the war in Ukraine the massacre in Gaza from a communist point of view not only analysis but also answers and slogans that are appropriate for the agitation in relation to these questions this is really the main work of the international the international centre of the IMT soon to be revolutionary communist international and on top of this obviously we comrades visit the congresses and national meetings of the different sections to discuss with the comrades their work generalize the lessons and so on but I would say that the main work of the international secretariat the international centre of the IMT is first and foremost the development of the political ideas the development of the theoretical level of understanding which really is what is the glue that keeps the international together what unites us is not an apparatus or anything like this what unites us is common ideas a common understanding common communist, Leninist ideas of how to the need to transform society the inevitable crisis of capitalism and the need for the socialist revolution yeah well thanks for explaining that I think that's pretty much everything I wanted to go over in this episode is there anything that you'd like to highlight before we finish yeah there's just one point maybe it's worth mentioning that some people might say ok you're launching a revolutionary communist international but is this the right time and all the communist organizations out there and I would say that one of the main characteristics of the present situation is the enormous crisis that exists in the communist movement there are still communist parties that call themselves by this name but most of this have really long time ago abandoned any genuine idea of communism or Leninism you have for instance the communist party of Britain which in it's wrote to socialism talks about is it three different stages first you have to have a left coalition government and then something else and it's really not a revolutionary communist approach to things or you have the communist party in Spain which still calls itself communist sometimes signs statements for socialism but they are part of a coalition government with a socialist party which is part of NATO sending arms to Ukraine and so on or even worse you have the communist party of the Russian Federation which is basically just an appendix of Putin's imperialist policy in Ukraine or even worse there's a big competition for which is the party that's most abandoned communist principles from them the communist party of the United States which is basically an election electoral machine for voting for Biden and the excuse that of Trump's fascism then we must fight against fascism by voting for whom for a capitalist party that's responsible for the genocide in Gaza you know so there is a big crisis in the communist movement there are some forces within what you will call the communist movement trying to resist like Greece for example this collapse into national reformism and chauvinism amongst them is the communist party of Greece there's also been a big split in the communist part in the Brazilian communist party and there's a group of comrades that fighting for what they call revolutionary reconstruction revolutionary refoundation of that party we're in discussions with them and we do have differences with the communist party of Greece but at least it has to be said that for instance on the war in Ukraine they have taken a principal position they say we oppose NATO we consider this not just in words but also in deeds and we consider this an inter-imperialist war and therefore we're not in favor of of Russia there's a whole number of communist parties so-called communist parties in the world that basically act as cheerleaders for Russia and China we're just supposed to be the beginning of a multipolar war anyway there's a complete crisis in the communist movement and I think that is also one of the reasons which makes the launching of the revolutionary communist international so timely we want to open a debate with anyone in the communist movement who stands for the ideas of genuine communism, the ideas of Lenin and we might have other differences but let's open a dialogue these are our ideas expressed in the manifesto we're putting them out there and we like other people to comment on them whether there's agreement, disagreement whether there's agreement on fundamental questions other questions we can discuss I think that this is also very very important in terms of the need for the launch of revolutionary communist international thanks for explaining that Jorge and if listeners would like to get their hands on a copy of the revolutionary communist international's manifesto it will be in print I believe very soon but there's also a version that is online on marxist.com so the link to that will be in the show notes of this podcast so yeah I think that brings us to the end of this episode so thanks very much to our listeners for tuning in and thank you Jorge for joining us it was a pleasure and before you leave just a few quick announcements so as always if
