Socialism and Freedom

About us?

We are SOL (Socialism and Freedom) - Spanish state. We integrate LIS (International Socialist League), a coordination of parties and groups of more than 30 countries on five continents. We are revolutionary, anticapitalist, feminists and environmentalists.
We are at the service of the struggles of workers, Young, women and oppressed of the world. Internationalism is our flag.
Solidarity and boosting mobilizations, strikes and street actions form the first link in the chain for social rights and political dissatisfaction of the working class and the people.
Those who say the crisis 2008 It is completely overcome, blatantly lie. Rate hikes in services, transport, the rents, food and general living costs, only favor corporate interests and profits. Working people suffer, Besides, a high percentage of unemployment, layoffs, inadequate wages, social inequality and poverty. The loss of old workers' gains is evident in the brutal job insecurity that shakes mainly young workers, immigrants and women.
Women suffer under a double character of exploited and oppressed. The capitalist and patriarchal system deprives them of their rights, discriminated against and socially wage gap as women. Against gender violence in its various expressions and femicide, the regime's institutions, including police and justice act as accomplices. The Catholic Church, regimentar is responsible for what women can do or not with your own body. This reality, only reversed when popular mobilization and claim millions of women who star in the fourth world-wave feminism involved.
At the same time, We reject the attacks and restrictions on democratic freedoms, whose most serious expression is the existence of political prisoners and persecution of Catalan independence, as a result of the application of Article 155 Rajoy, the king of Spain, Judge Llarena and Unionist front.

Monarchical-parliamentary regime of the Constitution of '78 is exhausted and decaying. The PP and PSOE are alternated in government and hold it. Citizens can, from different angles, They are postulated replace, without touching the essentials, institutions and the capitalist system.

Support self-determination of the Catalan people and their right to establish itself as Republic is a top priority task for socialist revolutionaries. On the way fraternization with other oppressed peoples of the Spanish State and the necessary unity of the whole working class Iberian, to fight for their common claims beyond individual national identities and / or cultural.
cut social and democratic rights, wars, economic crisis and instability, exploitation and oppression of nationalities, up the true face of capitalism. It is the system that defend the bourgeois politicians and union leaders traitors.
Capitalism can not be reformed or makeup, It must be defeated before resulting in barbarism for millions and millions of people around the world. It is not an easy task. not impossible, while they can overcome the traps and pitfalls that put both sectarian organizations like opportunists, by one way or another they make you play to the existing system.
The single output line is socialism, which it is not the dictatorial and bureaucratic caricature that stained their flags with claws of Stalinism and social democracy. Socialism is where they are satisfied the most basic health needs, living place, education, job, rights of women and minorities, with absolute democracy, with freedom of expression, of opinion and organization.
The world permanently change forcing the revolutionaries to respond to new challenges without sacred dogmas, ni ankylosed schemes. We do so from a solid base: Marx's teachings, Lenin and Trotsky as theoretical and practical guide to socialism.
from now, It is not a bed of roses. The fall of Stalinism meant a huge release of forces, a positive step towards ending one of the world's worst known devices. Nevertheless, It also generated enormous contradictions, confusion in class consciousness and advantages that capitalism took part. Even with all these problems, imperialism has managed not categorically defeat the workers and peoples of the world who are fighting tooth and nail.
Because, we remain optimistic. It is possible and necessary to develop internationalism, promote the mobilization of the masses and building revolutionary socialist parties, to govern the workers and the people, with a regime of workers' democracy.
As Nahuel Moreno said: "I do not think the victory of socialism is inevitable. I think the result depends on the class struggle in which we are immersed. And that, so, it is essential to fight, fight furiously to succeed. Because we can succeed. There is no god who has noticed that we can not. "
