(en) Brazil, OSL: Josef Stalin "Marxist-Leninists" against anarchism (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Thu, 25 Apr 2024 09:47:35 +0300


DEBATE | In December 2023, we came across the circulation, on "Marxist-Leninist" social networks, of an old polemic by Josef Stalin against anarchism. This is his classic text Anarchism or Socialism?, from 1907, which, from time to time, resurfaces resuming this historical debate. ---- This time, the dissemination of Stalin's text was carried out by the Rebellion Youth Union (UJR), associated with Popular Unity (UP) and the Revolutionary Communist Party (PCR). These organizations, as is evident on their website/newspaper (A Verdade) and on their social networks, have been part of a recent effort in Brazil to rehabilitate Stalin and Stalinism.
In this text, we, activists of the Libertarian Socialist Organization (OSL), intend to contextualize the debate and return to important questions in the history and theory of socialism. This will help to make anarchist positions and their differences with Marxism truly known. We want to show the fragility of Stalin's criticism, which can only be well received by people who do not know (or pretend not to know) anarchism and the history of socialism.
Our intention is not to polemicize with one or another organization in particular, but to open a frank debate with the Brazilian radical left about socialism and the paths to socialism. This discussion seems relevant to us, given the context in which we are living.
