![[audio]](/images/mediatype_audio.gif) | Audio File: Individual Terrorism and Communism - Alan Woods
We publish a talk by Alan Woods on the Marxists attitude to individual terrorism, given at the Socialist Appeal day school in London late last year. Of particular relevance following the assasination of Benazir Bhutto in Pakistan recently, socialism must oppose acts of indiviual terrorism - 'liberals with bombs' - because of the reactionary role they play in the labour movement.

| Latin America and the theory of The Permanent Revolution - Alan Woods

| The War in Georgia and the National Question - Alan Woods
The war in Georgia represents yet another turning point in world relations. Like a heavy rock thrown into a lake it has caused waves that will affect the whole world. Overnight the overweening arrogance of US imperialism, which had learned to look complacently at the entire planet as its sphere of influence, was been dealt a hard knock from which it may not recover. Listen to Alan Woods speak at a recent meeting of the Socialist Appeal on the war in Georgia in relation to world relations and the...

The launch of Alan Woods' new book Reformism or Revolution took place on October 1st in Bolivar Hall in London. This new book by Alan Woods is a polemic against a well-known (in Latin American terms) intellectual Heinz Dieterich. Dieterich claims to have invented a new "Socialism of the 21st Century" and much else into the bargain. He offers a great deal of advice to those involved in the Venezuelan Revolution dressed up in all manner of revolutionary rhetoric...

| Chinese Revolution of 1949 - Alan Woods
For Marxists the Chinese Revolution was the second greatest event in human history, second only to the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. Millions of human beings, who had hitherto been the beasts of burden of imperialism, threw off the humiliating yoke of imperialism and capitalism, and entered the stage of world history. In 1949 the People's Liberation Army, in spite of huge military aid supplied to Chiang Kai-shek's nationalist forces, took power and within a short span of time proceeded to snuff ...

| Marxism and the modern world - is it still relevant? - Alan Woods
As a result of the economic and social convulsions, many people are beginning to question the nature of the capitalist system. But does Marxism offer an alternative in todays world? Is there still a class struggle? Or are we all middle class now? Many people are disgusted by the huge salaries of big business, but does this mean they are in favour of socialism? Yesterday Alan Woods answered these questions at a ULU Marxist Society meeting in London with an audience of 25.

| The war against Gaza and the consequences for the Middle East - Alan Woods
Just over one year after the Annapolis Conference that was supposed to produce a deal between Israel and the Palestinians, the Israeli ruling class has concentrated all its military might to pulverise Gaza. Once again the Middle East is engulfed in the flames of war. Alan Woods explains the reasons for Israel's invasion of Gaza and analyses the wider implications for relations between the powers in the Middle East and on a world scale.
