We are reprinting a report from the website of the Czechoslovak
Anarchist Association. We are pleased that anarchist literature is
spreading beyond our subculture. ---- At the beginning of the week, the
Leftist Club Ostrava organized a series of lectures on current topics of
the present. On Monday, May 12, the event was also attended by a
representative of the Ostrava branch of the Czechoslovak Anarchist
Association (CAS), who briefly presented the activities of CAS and the
circumstances of its establishment. Then, he introduced Casák, which is
published by the Prague group, in particular the thematic issue
dedicated to anarchist theory and an issue on anarchy in practice. He
also briefly talked about the anti-militaristic magazine Dezertér, the
ongoing collection for war deserters, and the actions against the
genocide in Gaza. The aforementioned publications were also available at
the event.
The individual speakers were inspiring. Professor Frantishek Varadzin
spoke about the current decline of American hegemony, in the context of
which we will more easily understand the surprising fascism of the USA
under the leadership of Donald Trump. He also mentioned the ways in
which states have defended themselves against American economic pressure
in the past and emphasized the key role of China in the current global
economy. Ostrava activist Petr Rohel spoke about the concept of the
transnational ruling class according to William Robinson's theory, which
draws attention to the ever-sharpening contradictions of global
capitalism. Jan Májícek from Socialist Solidarity finally analyzed the
current class struggles that are taking place, despite the lack of
interest from the domestic media, especially in the USA, where new trade
unions are emerging. He emphasized that anti-fascism must not be some
kind of lofty moral stance, but a logical requirement of the unity of
workers in opposition to the unity of capital. The ensuing debate showed
that the topics that can bring the radical left to the forefront may be
fascism, climate change, and especially the housing crisis.
