May Day 2016: International Working-Class Unity – for Jobs, Peace, Environment – Genuine Socialism!

Dear colleagues, This spring more than seven million blue- and white-collar workers are involved in collective bargaining disputes for higher wages and salaries. Whereas labor productivity in the factories is soaring, young people are losing their jobs or being employed in contract labor. Workforces are fighting against longer shifts, wage cuts and against plans for the partly mass destruction of jobs. For an effective struggle to defend and improve our working and living conditions we need strong trade unions as fighting organizations, as well as a full legal right to strike in all matters.

Willi Dickhut: Hegel’s Logic as Culmination and End of Classical Philosophy

Willi Dickhut (1904–1992) was a pioneer and leading thinker of the MLPD. He acquired his ability for independent, creative Marxist-Leninist thinking in the ever higher unity of theory and practice mainly through mastery of the dialectical method. As a worker with no academic background, he trained himself also through self-studies in natural science and philosophy. During the first postwar years he wrote a short philosophical paper on the relevance of the bourgeois philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831). Read More…
