Revolution or Neoliberalism

The Communist University meets tonight at the Women’s Jail, 1 Kotze Street, Constitution Hill, Braamfontein at 17h00. The topic of discussion is excerpts from Rosa Luxemburg’s “Reform or Revolution”. Later on, at 19h00 at the John Moffat Building on the Wits University East Campus there will be an event called “Is Labour History?” Comrades may wish to go from the CU to the Wits U, taking the question of “Reform or Revolution” with them. Next week we had scheduled to repeat the SACP Gauteng Province’s scheduled session on Gender and the Socialist Revolution but up to now have no text to circulate. If anyone can assist please do so. On July 15th the great Issa Shivji gave a farewell lecture on the occasion of his “formal” retirement from the University of Dar-es-Salaam. The “Dar Campus” has produced a treasury of works, including those of Walter Rodney and Mahmood Mamdani. Shivji’s lecture, obviously a classic and obviously not his last, is linked below.
