Liga für die Fünfte Internationale Anfang Dezember nahmen Delegierte und Beobachter:innen der Liga für die Fünfte Internationale (L5I) beim Dritten Weltkongress der Internationalen Sozialistischen Liga (LIS) in Istanbul teil. Vor 36 Jahren machten sich die Vorgänger:innen der L5I daran, das revolutionäre Programm des Marxismus neu zu überarbeiten, den Kampf gegen Reformismus und Zentrismus zu erneuern und für den Wiederaufbau einer revolutionären kommunistischen International

During the pre-congress, we presented our members with a series of analytical and programmatic texts for debate, including an assessment of the current world situation and the main events in the class struggle. Here, we will summarize in 10 points what we consider the most important features and what our response should be. 1. Since 2008, the crisis of capitalism and its devastating consequences for humanity and nature have deepened. The constant decline in workers’ living st

Beschluss des 3. Kongresses der ISL Die von Trump angeordnete imperialistische Eskalation gegen Venezuela nimmt weiter zu: Sie begann mit Sanktionen, die der gesamten Bevölkerung schaden, und mit Kopfgeld auf venezolanische Führungskräfte. Sie setzte sich fort mit der Einrichtung einer militärischen Luft- und Seeblockade und ging weiter mit der Versenkung von Booten und der Ermordung ihrer Besatzungen unter dem Vorwurf des „Drogenhandels“, ohne Beweise oder Gerichtsverfahren.

The Third World Congress of the International Socialist League has just ended. The result exceeded all expectations with great success. Since its founding in 2019, the ISL has continued to grow and has spread to all continents in its five years of existence. At this Congress, the ISL has taken a huge leap forward, establishing its presence in most of the central countries. It has almost doubled the number of countries where the ISL is present, with different development, comp

The two shooters who killed 15 people at Bondi Beach committed an act of vile antisemitic individual terrorism which must be condemned world-wide. By Dave Stockton (Workers Power, Grossbritannien) The two shooters who killed 15 people at Bondi Beach committed an act of vile antisemitic individual terrorism which must be condemned world-wide. Those of us who have mobilised in defence of the people of Gaza – victims of mass state terrorism – need to add our voices. The perpetr

Dave Stockton Donald Trump’s reported 28-point „peace plan“ does not offer a roadmap to stability; rather, it rewards Vladimir Putin for an unprovoked war of aggression and the illegal occupation of sovereign territory. Even with the modifications currently being floated in diplomatic circles, the proposal is unlikely to gain the Kremlin’s assent or meet Ukraine’s existential needs—namely, the total withdrawal of Russian forces and just compensation for the devastation wrough

Bruno Tesch Sanae Takaichi, Japan’s new head of government elected on 21 October, stands for a rightward shift, racism and militarism. Her election was preceded by a political crisis that also engulfed the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP). After it lost its absolute majority in parliament, the previous prime minister, Shigenu Ishiba, resigned from his posts as head of government and party leader in September 2025 and served only as interim prime minister until a successo

Shezhad Arshad On 13 October, the Pakistan state launched a crackdown on the Islamist-fascist Tehreek-e-Labbaik (TLP). The pretext was a demonstration in solidarity with Gaza organised by the TLP. At least five people were killed, dozens injured and movre than 2,000 arrested during the crackdown. Leaders of the TLP are in hiding; their supporters have been sent into hiding, and the state has assumed control of their mosques and madrasas. The TLP is a right-wing, Islamist and

Jonathan Frühling The only good news: the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize is not going to Donald Trump. The bad news: it is going to the right-wing Venezuelan opposition politician María Corina Machado. The committee’s statement explains that she received the prize ‘for her struggle for a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.’ A statement that could hardly be more wrong. Machado’s politics Machado’s political career spans approximately 25 years. She first became
