Communication
The theory of communization originated in France in the 1970s . The theory describes the idea of a revolution that the communism (ie a classless society ) without the of Karl Marx is to establish regarded as necessary rule of the working class. All existing communist and workers' parties are rejected, a separate organization is not and has not been established.
history
The term communization was theorized by “ultra-left” intellectuals in France in the 1970s . The term expresses the will of these intellectuals to want to experience a communist revolution without a transition phase (rule of the working class). The theorists of communization see their theory as a further development of council communist approaches. The 1975 pamphlet A World Without Money states: “ Insurrection and communization are closely linked. There will not be a phase of uprising first, which then, later, thanks to this uprising, is followed by the transformation of social reality. The insurgent process draws its strength from communization itself. ”This view presents itself as an alternative to statism and to the avant-gardism of the Leninist conception of the revolution. The Russian revolution and the revolution in China allegedly failed because of a lack of action in order to abolish capitalist social relations (e.g. lack of direct collectivization, continued existence of money). The state, including the workers' state, is supposedly always based on capitalist conditions ( money , capital , wage labor ) and should therefore be repealed:
“One can foresee that a movement of communization which destroys the state, undermines the social base of the enemy, and spreads through the effect of the irresistible attraction that creates the birth of new social relationships among people, will unite the revolutionary camp much better than any power that, while waiting to conquer the world before being communicated, would behave no differently than - a state. "
The term is still used in France and through the translations of texts by Gilles Dauvé, Théorie communiste and others today in other languages as well.
In collaboration with other left-wing communists such as François Martin and Karl Nesic, Dauvé tried to bring together, criticize and develop various left-wing radical currents. B. the Italian movement, which was associated with Amadeo Bordiga , the magazine Invariance by Jacques Camatte, German-Dutch council communism and French currents such as Socialisme ou Barbarie and the Situationist International . His main interest lies in theoretical discussions on economic issues relating to the controversial failure of Marxism of the Second International ( social democratic and Leninist currents), the global revolutionary uprising in the 1960s and its subsequent dissolution, and the developments in global capitalist accumulation and class struggle .
The journal Théorie communiste is another theoretical source of communization. In contrast to Dauvé's approach, for Théorie communiste communization was not always possible, but was only made possible by the “restructuring” of capitalism in the 1970s. Together with various journals, groups and individuals who are close to this theory, they publish the international journal Sic .
