From Revolupedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search

These are the principles of Revolupedia which guide our project and elaborate our ideological line.

Ideological and theoretical line

Marxism–Leninism

Revolupedia is a revolutionary communist project which adheres to the framework of anti-revisionist Marxism–Leninism as elaborated by the four leading theorists of scientific socialism — Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Vladimir Lenin, and Joseph Stalin. We understand Marxism–Leninism to be the leading theory and world outlook of the working class in the age of capitalism-imperialism and socialist revolution. The Marxist philosophy of dialectical and historical materialism represents the only true understanding of reality, being derived from empirical analysis of the material world, society, and its development.

Anti-imperialism

Anti-revisionism

We maintain that a core aspect of building a revolutionary movement and opposing capitalism is opposing revisionism, a major manifestation of capitalist ideology which has served counter-revolutionary ends since the birth of communism itself. To that extent, we oppose all forms of revisionism, opportunism, and deviationism from working class ideology — including, but not limited to, reformism, anarchism, Trotskyism, Hoxhaism, "left" communism, Maoism, Khrushchevism, Titoism, Sakaism, anti-Stalinism, and social-chauvinism.

These tendencies have shown themselves to be fundamentally hostile to the working class and its movement, seeking to destroy its revolutionary aims and ultimately preserve the capitalist system.
