This year the proletariat and all the exploited and
oppressed of the world celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of the
great Karl Heinrich Marx. With overflowing jubilation, communists
throughout the world celebrate the founder of our ideology. With Marx and
Marxism, the great chapter in the history of humanity opens up where men,
endowed with the ideology of the proletariat, can scientifically understand the
laws of society and thought, thus beginning the conscious struggle to end
society of classes and move towards glorious communism.
Marx and his dear comrade Friedrich Engels raised for the
first time the voice of command: Proletarians of all countries, unite! Slogan
under which millions of workers have been launched into the revolutionary
struggle throughout the world, have managed to put the flags of communism in
increasingly higher summits:From the triumph of the great October Socialist
Revolution in Russia that has inaugurated a New Era for humanity, through the
great Chinese Revolution in 1949 and dozens of victorious national liberation
struggles of oppressed nations and peoples, to the epic of the Great
Proletarian Cultural Revolution in China, up to the popular wars of the present
that persist uncontained in Peru, India, the Philippines and Turkey. And
with this Marxism has developed through its application and in the midst of the
most bitter struggles, becoming in Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, mainly Maoism,
which is the new, third and superior stage of Marxism. With outstanding
and hard struggle against all odds in Peru
Reactionaries and revisionists insist, unable to hide their
almighty and immortal doctrine, to show Marx fragmented and falsified as the
"library intellectual", as the Marx "humanist", the
"poisoned avenger", "the dogmatic". The revisionists,
old and new, who strive to empty Marxism of its revolutionary essence, collide
with its unmistakable definition of the class struggle and the dictatorship of
the proletariat: " as far as I am concerned, I do not hold the
title of discoverer of the existence of classes in modern society, and not even
of the struggle between them. Long before me, bourgeois historians had
described the historical development of this class struggle. What I did
again was to demonstrate: 1) That the existence of classes is linked only to
particular, historical phases of the development of production; 2) that
the class struggle necessarily leads to the dictatorship of the proletariat; 3)
that this same dictatorship only constitutes the transition to the abolition of
all classes and a society without classes . " [1]
Others try to show it as "anti-dogmatic" in its
attempt to oppose it to those who label dogmatics but who have truly been its
continuators, who have consistently and creatively applied Marxism to the
revolutionary practice directing the proletariat to conquer power and
build socialism: Lenin and President Mao.
But there is only one Marx: the founding genius of the
ideology of the proletariat, the great leader of the proletariat who laid
the theoretical, ideological and political foundations of the class struggle,
and guided it in its first battles against the European bourgeoisie and
reaction, the vindicator of the need for revolutionary violence and the
dictatorship of the proletariat, the fierce combatant against the false
theories that deviate from the proletariat, the fervent
revolutionary who devoted his whole life to the cause of the proletariat and
who had no other aspiration than his emancipation. It is up to the
Marxist-Leninist-Maoist parties and organizations to clean up the mud that the
revisionists have cast on the figure of the great Marx and to return to the
proletarian masses the true image of the firstgreat jfe of the class.
Some revisionists draw a Marx imprisoned in the London
Nothing more alien to reality and Marxism, to think that
Marx spent his life away from the masses and revolutionary struggles. Marx
was always a determined revolutionary: in his militancy in the newspaper of the
left Hegelians, in the leadership of the League of the Communists, in
their participation in the revolution of 1848 in Germany, in the meticulous
correspondence that throughout their lives maintained with the most varied
leaders of the proletariat, in the constant publication of articles and
sometimes the direction of magazines for the agitation, and finally , in the
great leadership that it had of the International Workers Association, the
First International, which laid the ideological bases of the proletariat on
which the first communist parties would be built in several countries. Before
the tomb of Marx, Engels said:"Marx was, first and foremost, a
revolutionary. The true mission of his life was to cooperate in one way or
another to the overthrow of capitalist society and the institutions of the
state created by it, to cooperate for the emancipation of the modern
proletariat, to whom he for the first time instilled the consciousness of his
own situation and their needs, the awareness of the conditions that informed
their release ". [4]
Others try to deceive the masses with a humanist and even
pacifist Marx. The founder of the ideology of the proletariat argued that "the
antagonism between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie is a struggle from class
to class, a struggle that, taken to its highest expression, is a total
revolution. Moreover, should we be surprised that a society founded on the
opposition of the classes is resolved in the brutal contradiction, in a clash
of bodies as a final outcome? " [5] . After the experience of the proletariat in the
revolutions of Germany
" Marx in his Critique of the Gotha Program on the
problem of the correlation between the State and [socialist] society ,
which Marx calls the" first "phase, or lower phase of communist
society,left forever established: '... Between capitalist society and communist
society-Marx continues-mediates the period of revolutionary transformation from
the first to the second. To this period also corresponds a political period of transition,
whose State can not be other than the revolutionary dictatorship of the
proletariat ... '" [6]
Today they dare to raise Marx against the universal validity
of the people's war. They argue that in some countries there are no
conditions to start the people's war - or revise the concept of people's war to
leave it as a mass political strike or insurrection - and that preparing the
beginning would be willful, adventurous or isolated from the mass movement. Marx harshly
criticized those desperate revolutionaries who were fighting without the
masses believing that "the engine of the revolution is not reality,
but the will" [7] . But precisely reality is not static. Historical
and political development has led to a revolutionary situation in unequal
development and to the strategic offensive of the world proletarian revolution,
a situation that demandsreconstitution / constitution of militarized communist
parties to start popular wars as soon as possible . Those
who preach today the mass political strike and the insurrection as a strategy
of the revolution - some call it the strategy of the people's war for the
imperialist countries - are those who deny reality's demands and defend the usual
opportunist path of accumulation peaceful of forces, prelude to parliamentary
cretinism.
It was precisely Marx who rescued the energetic principle of
human activity, the "active side" of idealism and led it to
materialism, refuting all contemplative materialists and urging an active
revolutionary practice to transform reality, something that today only
materializes arming the masses part by part, incorporating them in the middle
of the people's war for the seizure of power. Marx also stated: "Where
we say to the working class: you have to go through fifteen, twenty, fifty
years of civil wars and people's struggles, not only to change reality, but to
change yourselves, empowering them for Power , you say to them: Or we
immediately go to Power or we go to sleep " [8].Volunteer and far from the masses are those who initiate or
develop armed struggle without a militarized communist party, firmly guided by
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism applied to the country itself. In this way they arrive
sooner or later to the preaching of "going to sleep," to agreements
of "peace" and capitulation to reaction, thus denying the general
crisis of imperialism and the main historical and political tendency to
revolution.
Marx was the leader of the proletariat who achieved the
unity of the workers' movement in severalcountries during the years of the International
War , a unity based on the strong defense of the principles of
the proletariat and in opposition to conciliation. Accused by the
authoritarian Bakuninists and by many others of splitting, Marx knew that the
First International had already fulfilled its historical mission and that it
was better that it ended before it was killed by unprincipled unity . Today
the dispersion in the Communist International Movement can only be overcome by
creating a unity on the basis of the principles of Marxism, ie on a unified
understanding of Maoism, which far from leading to dogmatism provides the ideological
basis for the creative application in each country, forging
guiding thoughts to reconstitute / constitute communist parties that
initiate and direct popular wars.
Marx always trusted unswervingly in the
proletariat and never, during the failures of his early struggles, doubted
his historical mission-scientifically proven-to be a gravedigger of capitalism. Far
from falling into despair or dejection, he took pains to draw lessons from his
temporary defeats to nourish Marxism and also laid the foundations of the
struggle against revisionism."All the important sections of the annals of
the revolution from 1848 to 1849 have the heading of Defeat of the Revolution! But
what succumbed in these defeats was not the revolution. They were the
traditional prerevolutionary appendices, the survivals resulting from social
relations that had not yet become sufficiently acute to take a very precise
form of class contradictions: people, illusions, ideas, projects of which the
revolutionary party was not free before the February revolution and those that
could not free the victory of February, if not just a series of
defeats . " [9]
Applying this analysis of Marx to the whole era of world
proletarian revolution, we see that we are facing a tremendously strengthened
proletariat, which in the struggle between revolution and counterrevolution has
emerged victorious and strengthened with Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, in hard and
bloody fight against imperialism and reaction, inseparable struggle of the
struggle against all opportunism and revisionism.
In 1879, the one who years later was consecrated as the
first revisionist of history, E. Bernstein, tried to revive in his "Retrospective
Review of the Socialist Movement" those pre-revolutionary ideas that
Marx condemned and declared defeated in the revolution of 1848. Marx and Engels
went into battle and broke ranks stating that: "As for us, and taking
into account all our past, we have only one way left. For nearly 40 years we
have been highlighting the class struggle as a directly propelling force of
history, and particularly the class struggle between the bourgeoisie and the
proletariat as the great lever of the modern social revolution. This is
the reason why we can not march with men who want to extirpate this class
struggle from the movement" [10]. Today, the pending task of the balance of the last
decades of the International Communist Movement, can only be carried out
clearly delimiting the fields, repudiating the new revisionism that has been
defeated, and uniting us around a higher understanding of Maoism.
The call of the Manifesto of the Communist Party and
of the manifesto of the First International for the proletariat was clear: to
seize power and subordinate to this objective the immediate interests of the
proletariat, and according to the moment, without losing the final objective,
to draw the appropriate tactics. For this reason Marx always oriented with
great skill the tactics of the proletariat for each moment and the relation
that it should have with the other classes of the society: in times of
prosperity of the capitalism (that not yet had become monopolist, parasitic and
agonizing) it drew the workers wage struggle as real civil wars to prepare the
class for the " future battle" and for the "ultimate
goal". He defended the use of legality in the periods of "political
stalemate and domination of bourgeois legality " [11] but severely condemned the German Social Democratic Party
for not having passed into illegality firmly after the law of exception was
enacted against the Socialists in Germany. As for the relationship of the
proletariat with the bourgeoisie and the peasantry where the democratic
revolution had not yet been consummated, Marx set up invaluable analyzes that
served as a guide for what Lenin and President Mao Tsetung would develop; the
bourgeoisie " without faith in itself and without faith in the
people; growling against those above and trembling before those below"[12] . And in front of the peasantry, Lenin would gather
"while in Germany the (bourgeois) democratic revolution was not
completed, Marx concentrated all his attention, as regards the tactics of the
socialist proletariat, in promoting the democratic energy of the peasants " [13] , putting on the surface what was said for him and what the
revisionists of that time would take care to bury: "The whole
problem, in Germany, will depend on the possibility of supporting the
proletarian revolution with a kind of second edition of the peasant wars." [14]
This year, the 170th anniversary of the publication of The
Manifesto of the Communist Party , a program of the proletariat drawn up
by Marx and Engels, whose principles today are valid and valid and corresponds
to apply them. We emphasize once more the call of the Manifesto: "Communists
consider it unworthy to hide their ideas and purposes. They openly
proclaim that their objectives can only be achieved by overthrowing the entire
existing social order by violence. Let the ruling classes tremble before a
Communist Revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose in it other
than their chains. They have, however, a world to win."
We then celebrated with joy the birth of the giant of the
proletariat, who drank from the highest of humanity, from the classic German philosophical faith ,
from English political economy and from French socialism, and in struggle
with them, synthesizing and elevating them masterfully, giving to light
the integral scientific ideology of the proletariat, which in more than a
century and a half of hard class struggles and struggles of two lines
has become Marxism-Leninism-Maoism and the contributions of universal validity
of Gonzalo Thought.
It is up to the communists to raise, defend and apply,
mainly to apply Maoism to carry out revolutions of new democracy and
without interruption to move to the socialist in the countries dominated by
imperialism - the vast majority of countries and where the vast majority of the
masses - socialist revolution in the developed capitalist countries and
successive cultural revolutions to prevent the restoration, develop socialism
and secure the passage to communism . And this can only be done by
fighting against imperialism and the relentless and unbreakable reaction of
the struggle against old and new revisionism, and its new expression that
was systematized and structured in the right opportunist lines. In Peru,
today with its own revisionist party organization, which intends to usurp the
name of the PCP and with its front-facing electoral bodies such as Movadef and
Fentep, as well as fighting its other expressions, such as those of Avakian and
Prachanda, etc.
Let us celebrate the bicentenary of the birth of our
founder, the great Karl Marx and the 170th Anniversary of the
Manifesto of the Communist Party, going more and better to impose Maoism
as the command and guide of the new great wave of the world proletarian
revolution, the necessary basis for the proletariat can reconstitute the
Communist International that will shape with popular wars the epic begun by
Karl Marx towards our final goal the forever golden Communism:
Proletarians of all countries, unite!
Long live the 200 years of the birth of the great Karl
Marx, first great Head of the proletariat!
Long live your brilliant and unfading work!
Long live the 170 years of the Communist Party Manifesto!
Defend and apply proletarian
internationalism!
Defend the life and health of Chairman Gonzalo with people's
war!
Down with the Imperialist War! Long live the People's War!
People's War has communism!
