What it says in the title the communist international in its inception used to be able to do amazing things like the international brigade so why arent AES countries rushing to establish replacements?
there really is an xkcd comic for everything
Our party has a yearly communist festival with thousands of people from all over the world attending - China, Laos, Vietnam, several African and South American countries, Europeans, etc. It’s this weekend actually.
The entire weekend is filled with debates, music, cultural exchanges, talks, whatever. It’s always really fun to attend.
Not really an international but my point was to say that there are international communist events in which we can learn from eachother’s progress.
That sounds AMAZING. Can you tell us where?
The festival is called Manifiesta and takes place in Oostende, Belgium.
This is the website with more info but it’s in Dutch/French without English translation unfortunately.
Because there is no powerful revolutionary state to fund it. The obvious one would be China, but they have a strict non-interference policy. The CI was the brainchild of the USSR, and like others have said, it had mixed results. I can’t remember exactly where I read this, but China stopped funding foreign parties because they looked at their books and basically the parties they were funding were not getting results for the amount of money they were pouring in and needed it for their own national development.
I think the model was tested and found to be faulty. For all the good the com intern did there are plenty of cases where it chose the wrong path and made things worse.
Has it been faulty?
The com intern practically forced the CPC to work with the KMT every step of the way until the KMT murdered a bunch of communists.
What fucks up the internationales is trying to be one version of communism. Maybe if people accepted each other the workers could actually unite and do something useful instead of having a wank.
