Paolo Ferrero
For some free time with major public who wish to leave items The common name. At the bottom of the thesis proposed in various sauces is that the word communism is unusable because the concrete historical experience has distorted the meaning. Among those who propose to abandon the name is the Communist who is in favor of the name left, those in favor of socialism, who does not propose anything. All this is interwoven with another area of \u200b\u200bdebate that aims to go beyond the Communist Party of the PRC, to another party, to do something else that is not a party, etc.. The arguments used
recreate seems a bit 'tired as already supported by Occhetto and his supporters after the 89, but so much so, as know the first time the story is presented as tragedy, second as farce.
For me I think so:
The concept of community has a history that goes beyond the events of the short century. I do not want it here. I think be helpful to emphasize that in Italy the communist leadership group was formed at the origin of the factories in the matter of employment and enhancing the construction of works councils. During the war, has managed to forge a united anti-fascist resistance movement and democratic Iraq that helped liberate Italy and to give our country a democratic constitution structured around a very advanced. Then the Communists have variously struggled with some effectiveness against exploitation and social justice. A third of Italian voters came to trust a party that was called a communist and that put the moral question of the reform not as a policy. Refoundation Communist in his little has been present in the various conflicts that have traveled the country and was able to place them so in great season in the anti-globalization movement.
All trying to interweave the struggles for social rights with those for civil rights, workers' struggles and environmental struggles, struggles for the redistribution of income with the struggles against commodification of people, the environment, social relations. In other words, the term Communism in Italy is linked to the struggles for justice and freedom. The era craxiana I do not think you could say the same for the word socialism.
The word historically has left a positive meaning in our country. He in my opinion a flaw, namely that it is a blanket that covers many things. For example, within the Democratic Party and there are people who call themselves left-wing positions that are, however, variously Confindustria and in no way anti-capitalist. The word that is left alone does not define a clear position in terms of class division of society nor in terms of the will to overcome capitalism, so much so that in recent years have rightly said that there were two left, one moderate and the radical or alternative or antagonistic. From this point of view to define the left and communists seem to me represents a clear way to tell which side you are. We left but we are communists, that we struggle against exploitation, even when used against the Vatican and we struggle to overcome capitalism. Said to be a resource for the community and therefore qualify to be our left. Make the issue of communism is to put the node of the revolution, the radical change of the state of things. So much so that when certain members of the center say they do not want to ever make agreements with lists that contain the sickle and the hammer say it not for our history, but because we are actually, politically, here and now, anti-capitalist.
So much for Italy. The Communists, however, particularly when they took power, they have also made great disasters. Stalinism radically contradicted the aspirations of justice and freedom in the communist movement. So we called the Communist PRC. Not only the name of a party but a political project: re-establish communism had done all the way to deal with the stalimismo. We recognize that the history of communist and communist is our history, we analyzed the errors and horrors in order not to repeat them. Communist Refoundation and are therefore two terms that qualify each other, but also tell us about the persistence of the gap
The re-establishment of communism is therefore the political project that we chose when Achille Occhetto ruled that communism was just a pile of rubble. Nothing prevents the other day but I think as Occhetto frankly think that the troubles we had in previous years are not derived from our name but our political mistakes in the first place the choice of going to the government.
then I think that is more necessary today than yesterday said to be Communists, Communist Refoundation. It 's the name better than any other defines the here and now our anti-capitalism and our independence from a political class that defines the left but with whose political perspectives have little to do.
It 'obvious that it could continue to argue for a long time but I want to use the space I have left to raise a few questions.
First, it is clear that the discussion should start from here, that the Communist Refoundation. This would open a debate but not to negative to positive. It would consider how to make better Today the communist perspective. Of how our actions can not be located only at the level of political representation. Of how to redefine the policy in relation to the communist movement, the thousands vertenzialità
Secondly, it is bizarre that the re-establishment of the Communist Party newspaper put on the front page the debate on the failure of communism and on page 19 articles in which some party leaders put forward policy proposals and try to advance the Communist re-establishment project.
In other words, the real news I do not think the debate over communism, but the fact that now Liberation, the newspaper of the PRC, both the subject and with greater consistency and determination calls for the overcoming of the PRC and its political project. I must say that this news does not seem very useful.
