Re: Unity as organizational fetishism--What about the class?

[iwp.ilo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (CEP )]

    I read several articles about the new Turkish party (ODP).
    Maybe, we should not jump the gun on this one.  Turkey
    have a recent history of anhilinating the left, all of it.
    Maybe this is an opportunity to re-vitalize the working class
    movement and the left, pretty absent until now in Turkish
    politics.

    Parties are born out of by-design programs, but reality, many
    times, change that for the better or the worse.  Reformist parties
    which became either centrists or revolutionaries; left-wing
    revolutionary organizations which became reformists.  Mass
    organizations which became sects.  Sects that became big
    organizations.

    Theory, my friend, is gray but life is green.

    Comradely,
    Carlos
