Thu 8 Oct / 7:00-9:00pm
Online Marxist study class

All members and supporters of the Communists are invited to join us via Zoom for a weekly session in which we will be working our way through the essential classics of Marxism. As Lenin pointed out: "Without a revolutionary theory, there can be no revolutionary practice." If we want to build a mass movement for socialism in Britain, and if we actually want to defeat our enemies and win, we have to be trained in all aspects of the struggle. We have to be able to recognise our enemies and defeat them practically and ideologically. We have to be able to expose the plethora of charlatans and agents in the eyes of the working class, and we have to be able to popularise the key teachings of Marxist science so that they are taken up by ever wider sections of our class. This is the job of the communists: to bring a clear understanding of theory, organisation, strategy and tactics to our movement. Study is a cornerstone of developing a class-conscious worker into a really effective organiser for socialism. Recently finished: by VI Lenin. The classic work in which Lenin outlined the importance of revolutionary theory, showed the ways in which socialists should work amongst the workers, and put forward a plan for organising a real communist party, capable of bringing together all the diverse strands of working-class struggle and harnessing them for the socialist struggle. Currently reading: . An invaluable tool for understanding how it was that the Russian workers were able to organise and win, defeating tsarism, feudalism and capitalist imperialism, and going on to build the first and most formidable workers' state. Up next: by A Leontiev. The classic Soviet textbook that provides an excellent all-round introduction to the basics of Marxist political economy.

Leaflets / Time to face it: capitalism must go!

Only a planned economy designed to meet people’s needs can solve the problems of disease, poverty, inequality, war and environmental degradation.

Leaflets / Black and white: unite and fight

Workers of the world, unite. You have nothing to lose but your chains. You have a world to win!

About the Communists

An understanding of society (theory) and a way of uniting to change it (organisation) are the two things we need to make a socialist revolution.
