OUR PROPOSAL: TO LEARN FIGHTING TOGETHER The social, economical and cultural reality young people are suffering, demands a firm reply and not half words. Today, young people can evaluate the results of a social system that recognises one law: the law of the maximum profit; one right: the right of the multinationals to exploit; of a system that has identity and name: capitalism. Today, thousands of reasons have accumulated for taking part in the struggle between two worlds, the one of the exploiters and the one of the exploited. The operation of organisations dominated by the large imperialist powers such as the "G8", the WTO, the IMF and the World Bank, NATO and the EU, the theories and the even more reactionary policies implemented by our governments in the name of the "globalization" make the rich richer and the poor poorer and intensify the degree of exploitation of the working class. This is why we link our everyday struggle and demands with the struggle against these institutions, with the struggle against imperialism We think that time has come for our generation who don’t receive nothing but exploitation and exclusion, to demand changes which will guarantee our dignity that is being trampled. We pretend to educate ourselves in the principles of the oppressed class, which aspires to emancipate. The class of those of us who only own our working force, we are workers. We believe necessary in the impulse of the youth movement, which should article through direct participation the collective struggle for a honourable life and participate in the construction of a society without exploitation man by man. An honourable life doesn’t mean the capacity to consume, it means the development of humans condition through socialising spaces, free and direct participation, justice, distribution of work and wealth, around the values of solidarity, collectivism, social property and internationalism. Defending the creative free time, the right of education, artistic and cultural creation, participative sport, nature, and the peace among people. All in all, a New World built up above the ashes of the WB, IMF, WTO, EU and NATO. We claim ourselves young communists and we have our own organizations; we decide to learn fighting. We make closer our fraternal links under the slogan of the Communist Manifest " Workers in all countries, unite!"; we are linked fraternally in the struggle of all the young people world-wide demanding our right in a life with rights. We aspire to overcome this stage of owners’ civilisation, in order to open a human being’s civilisation. The so called political, social, economical and cultural "new model" which pretends to represent neoliberalism, is based on a brutal cutting of human rights in order to reduce human life to the condition of merchandise, in a system in which "stocks" are thrown to the sea or burned in the incinerators. We do not ask just for a "different" world of exploitation; we are struggling for a socialist world. This is why we insist fighting in our countries, against our governments, for the overthrown of the dominant policies and forces. We do believe that the importance of our everyday struggle in our countries is been increased, as it does the need of linking these struggles together in order to built up a common strategy against the common strategy of big capital and imperialism. We are going to paint together a red block, the colour of workers dignity, which will make visible the collective identity of the 21st century’s working class, facing the world-wide power of capital. We will march together in Barcelona, Salzburg and Genoa, as we do everyday while we co-ordinate our common struggles and demands against our common enemies. We will be one more voice of the popular chorus, which claims for emancipation and articles the resistance against the aggressions of financial capital. We firmly believe in the need of the impulse of participation spaces and nets of the youth movement, which could weave experiences of the collective struggle. Revolutionary change of the society is not only still being possible but also being necessary, and revolution is being prepared everyday "with our modest efforts", with the militant effort of all of us; hitting together we can do nothing but win UJCE Spain KNE Greece CYL Finland CJC Catalonia JCP Portugal EDON Cyprus SKMRF Russian Federation SDAJ Germany KSM Check Republic KPiD youth Denmark NKU Norway SIP Turkey YCL Britain KJO Austria SKOJ Yugoslavia International Department of KNE Communist Youth of Greece 11, Kotopouli str - Athens 10432 tel: +301-5282523 / fax: +301-5241526 http://www.kne.gr ______________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
