  PRC - V Congresso - Minority motions 25 - 29   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
This battle must be aimed at developing the political awareness of the movement on anticapitalist and anti-imperialist terrain (see motions…), its autonomy and counter-position to the centre-right and centre-left and its convergence with the working-class struggle for an alternative social bloc, an open fight for an alternative hegemony.
More in general, the fight for an anticapitalist and anti-imperialist hegemony in the anti-globalisation movement represents the central terrain for the defence and development of its autonomy.
In this sense, they must be directed to a more general anticapitalist programme based on a vast plan for the re-birth and general development of the South and the need for a radical fight to support it by all the working-class movement, in open rupture with the agreement-seeking policies adopted by the unions until now.

 PRC - V Congresso - Minority motions 30 - 36   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The very nature of the party, its function and its forms of organisation and life cannot be separated from the programme that the party follows and the character of its policies.
It is a factor for a counter-tendency, for the social recomposition of an alternative bloc and in this a hegemony of the anticapitalist class.
Without the collective assimilation and understanding of this relationship between the vanguard organisation and mass action, the PRC is destined to waver, in its real life, between an institutional separation from the movements and the political dissolution of its real role in favour of a naïve identification with the movements.

 NEW LEFT CURRENT - N
Therefore, the immediate complete programme of NAR and of the labour movement are not confined to the narrow limits of each independent phase and its particular duties, but are defined by the reciprocal relationship of each phase with the necessary continuation of the revolutionary movement.
Nowadays the new forms and relations that support the need of the anticapitalist fight, on the one hand, and the almost total hegemony of the tendency of co-existence with the capital, on the other, form the most characteristic contrast.
To the fronts of anticapitalist struggle, the pioneers of the movements, even though they have not reached the thought of overthrow of bourgeois domination in the total level.

 Workers Power | WP289   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The new anticapitalist movement, like the “old” workers movement, has developed its own form of the crisis of leadership, not least because it has borrowed a large number of its leaders from the workers’ movement and its intellectual hangers on.
In short, the anticapitalist movement, the workers movement, the movements of the racially, nationally and sexually oppressed, youth, women - must all be brought to together to create a new International - a world party of socialist revolution.
And, if the great anticapitalist movement is not to sink back into the reformism of yesteryear, or be crushed by the state forces once it has talked itself into an isolated corner, then it must adopt a revolutionary programme and become an international revolutionary party to carry it out.

 FI2 review of anticapitalist manifestos
The first thing to note at this stage is that despite his organisation’s support for the idea of democratic central planning, his programme attempts to present a model of postcapitalist economy without such a mechanism.
All this is absent from this utopian programme, which trades away the necessities of the struggle for the sake of “negotiated co-ordination” with the reformist intellectuals of today’s global justice movement.
Fortunately, the programmatic discussion in the global anticapitalist movement is not a three way debate between Monbiot’s bourgeois reformism, Albert’s petit-bourgeois utopianism and Callinicos’ centrist attempt to broke a compromise between the workers and the middle class intelligentsia.

 Que Se Vayan Todos: Argentina's Popular Rebellion - A Post Script for the Global Anticapitalist Movement
The situation in Argentina contains many elements of the anticapitalist movements: the practice of direct action, self-management and direct democracy; the belief in the power of diversity, decentralization, and solidarity; the convergence of radically different social sectors; the rejection of the state, multinational corporations, and financial institutions.
Yet, what is most incredible is that the form of the uprising arose spontaneously, it was not imposed or suggested by activists, but rather, created by ordinary people from the ground up, resulting in a truly popular rebellion that is taking place every day, every week, and including every sort of person imaginable.
Although many anticapitalists worldwide have said "Thank god for Argentina," as we've had our hopes rekindled in the dark days post 9-11, most of the people on the streets of Argentina have no idea that they've provided such widespread optimism.

 Revolution - Socialist Youth Organisation | News | Ideas into action
While we welcome tens of thousands more young people entering the broadly defined anticapitalist movement having been organised by MPH, we recognise that the demands and strategy of MPH are completely liberal and reformist, i.e.
We call on the indebted countries to stop paying the debt and on the labour and anticapitalist movement in the imperialist heartlands to take direct action to halt reprisals by their governments, the IMF, World Bank and WTO against countries that do.
This will be a key platform to argue for a very short declaration putting our key slogans on the debt and against the war/occupation, and calling for the formation of a Revolutionary Youth International to unite young people in the struggle against the capitalist system.

 Enviromentalists and Nuclear power - Alternate History Discussion Board
The basice problem is that most (not all, but most) environmentalists are anticapitalist luddites, and nuclear power technology is high technology (at least at first) and highly capital intensive.
Not only would we all benefit from the technology itself, but the political bent of the greens would remain somewhere within the broad spectrum of real politics, and hence some of the worthwhile ideas of the environmentalists (limited though they are) wouldn't be lost in the debate.
Most environmentalists are not "anticapitalist" and are very much into certain forms of high tech (such as solar and wind power).

 FOR AN INTERNATIONAL ANTICAPITALIST- ANTIIMPERIALIST MEETING IN ATHENS ON SPRING 2006 : Indymedia Colombia
We the undersigning this invitation, understanding the urgent need for discussion and projection of the radical movements of resistance and overthrow that are born on the ground of capitalist-imperialist aggressiveness, propose a three-day organization of anti-imperialist anticapitalist discussions, activities, and actions.
Therefore the conducting as well as the success of the International Anticapitalist - Antiimperialist Meeting, is of great importance for every fighting person who does not wish to witness the radical action of the movement to be wasted into the field of the administrative left.
Against the idea which claims that the today’s strategic attack of the murderous capitalism cannot be confronted, therefore abandons the revolutionary struggle and restricts itself in fighting for the comeback of the “welfare state”, we promote the idea of the anticapitalist struggle and the communist refoundation, aiming at the overthrow of capitalism.

A regular speaker at World and European Social Forums his views on the direction the anticapitalist movement should take tryto split the difference between the ideas currently in vogue in the movement and the principles of communism.

Shortly after the Anticapitalist Attack Nuclei struck, Italian terrorism expert theorized that "[s]everal organizations spread out in various parts of the country are at work in Italy, and there is a strategy at the top level" (Bomb Attacks: Rome-Turin Axis, Arturo Buzzolan).
However, due to its limited activity, it is probable that the Anticapitalist Attack Nuclei was a cover name for another terrorist organization or individual.
Current Goals: The Anticapitalist Attack Nuclei have not been heard from since April 2001 and are assumed to be inactive.

 How Capitalism Saved America by Thomas Dilorenzo : Booksamillion.com (1400083311, Paperback)
We hear that greedy plutocrats exploit the American public; that capitalism harms consumers, the working class, and the environment; that the government needs to rein in capitalism; and on and on.
Anticapitalist critiques have only grown more fevered in the wake of corporate scandals like Enron and WorldCom.
But the anticapitalist arguments are pure bunk, as Thomas J. DiLorenzo reveals in How Capitalism Saved America.

 Center for Global Justice
As long as workers have the capacity to live well on the basis of their own labor and keep control of the tools for subsistence and social reproduction, there would be no motivation to sell their labor power to capitalists so that surplus value could be created from it to be appropriated by capital.
As anticapitalists were rediscovering the commons in the 1990s, there was an intellectual and political backlash to the neoliberal hegemony in academe and international agencies.
One form took shape in opposition to the individualistic "survival of the fittest" self-image of capitalists projected by neoliberalism (that lead to the bubble of the late 1990s and the scams and scandals of the new century).

 Anti-WEF-protests in Salzburg Once again police repression...
After the protests in Seattle, Prague, Davos or Gothenburg this WEF summit in Salzburg was a unique occasion to build the anticapitalist movement also in Austria.
They tried to build the anticapitalist movement in a purely empirical fashion, expressing themselves in a completely opportunistic manner towards the "greens" or some "left-wing" trade union bureaucrat one day, and in a completely sectarian way the next.

 AMERICAN STALINISM AND ANTI-STALINISM
The anticapitalist “ideology” of the radical intellectuals and the “Socialist” labor leaders and functionaries was scarcely more than skin-deep to start with.
They cannot fail to be victorious once they get a clear view and understanding of the central requirement: that their policy be anticapitalist, and that their organizations and their activities be independent, free from capitalist influences and agencies.
Moreover, the European workers, who in their vast majority are anticapitalist, recognize American imperialism as an irreconcilable enemy of their socialist aspirations, and feel the need of alliance with a power to counterbalance it.

 Workers Power | WP288
We argued throughout for an approach that could build a mass anticapitalist movement, drawing workers as well as youth, and help new life flood into and over the stagnant pond of the British left.
The collapse of the Stalinist states and parties, the rightward drift of reformism, new realism in the unions, had all apparently disproved the potential of working-class organisations to change society and turned “party” into a dirty word.
The anticapitalist movement came as a breath of fresh air in these circumstances.

 Spanner Films : reviews : Inspirational anticapitalist propaganda   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The takeovers, which stand in vivid contrast to defeatist responses to downsizing in this country, are a good example of a creative use of anger that makes the cultural climate of Argentina seem volatile and energizing instead of depressing, despite the country's poverty.
For me that's justification enough: anticapitalist propaganda that persuades and uplifts is in short supply these days.
They lost the case but won a clear moral victory: the judges ruled that most of their charges were accurate and fined them just £40,000, which McDonald's, fearful of more bad publicity, didn't even bother to collect.

In fact it considers one of the main virtues of Canadian nationalism to be that it does not lead to an "anti-imperialist movement," that is, movements against an enemy outside of Canada.
Ascribing anticapitalist dynamics to ideas which are unrelated to anticapitalist struggles is an idealist deformation of the Marxist approach.

 The Militant - October 19, 2004 -- What is a workers and farmers government?
Not just in some countries, not just in backward countries, not just with inadequate leaderships, but “the first form of government that can be expected to appear as the result of a successful anticapitalist revolution.” Period.
This is the conclusion that we had reached by 1978, as a result of thinking about and generalizing the lessons from workers and farmers governments established since World War II—lessons that the party had begun to draw in the world report presented for the Political Committee by Joe and adopted at our 1969 convention.
The armed might of the old ruling classes is dispersed, and another power based on the toilers replaces it.
