  4. The Enemy of Nature 
    The End of Capitalism or the End of the World?

    Resource Type: Book
    First Published: 2002   Published: 2007
    We live in and from nature, but the way we have evolved of doing this is about to destroy u. Capitalism and its by-rpoducts -- imperialism, war, neoliberal globalization, racism, poverty, and the destruction of community -- are all playing apart in the destruction of our ecosystem.
  5. Fictitious Capital for Beginners 
    Imperialism, “Anti-Imperialism”, and the Continuing Relevance of Rosa Luxemburg

    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    First Published: 2007
    Rosa Luxemburg's framework enabled her to see how capitalism could ultimately destroy society — barbarism, in her words, or the “mutual destruction of the contending classes” as the Communist Manifesto put it in 1847 — by being required to turn more and more to primitive accumulation and non-reproduction, a prophecy we see materializing before our eyes today.
  6. The Historical Moment That Produced Us
    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    First Published: 2010
    As we emerge, hopefully, from this dismal period of rollback, we recall Rosa Luxemburg’s remark, shortly before her murder in 1919: “The revolution says: I was, I am, I shall be!” We assert the ongoing reality of communism, “the real movement developing before our eyes,” as Marx put it in the Manifesto. Like Hegel’s “knights of history,” we locate our identities not in any immediacy but in the emerging new universal that must be the cutting edge of the next global offensive.
  7. Interview with Ulli Diemer
    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    First Published: 1990

    A letter about Rosa Luxemburg's contribution to Marxism

    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    First Published: 2000
    In a time when the socialist movement was evolving in directions increasingly removed from Marx's positions -- Social Democratic reformism on the one hand, and Leninist bureaucratic centralism on the other -- Luxemburg was the leading exponent of a Marxism in the spirit of Marx.
  10. Luxemburg versus Lenin 
    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    First Published: 1935
    On many essential points the conceptions of Luxemburg differ from those of Lenin as day from night, or – the same thing – as the problems of the bourgeois revolution from those of the proletarian.
  11. Luxemburgism
    Connexipedia: Article in Wikipedia

    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    A revolutionary theory within Marxism and communism based on the writings of Rosa Luxemburg.

    On a "Left"-Wing Response to Contemporary Social Breakdown

    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    First Published: 1991   Published: 2000
    Post-modernists are profoundly bored by any questions of economics and technology which cannot be connected to cultural differences. The implicit agenda of the multiculturalists is to present the values associated with intensive capitalist accumulation as "white male", so "non-white" peoples such as Japanese or Koreans who currently embody those values with a greater fervour than most "whites" are ignored.

    Introduction to the Second Edition of the Junius Pamphlet, The Crisis of Social Democracy

    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    First Published: 1919
    It is as though Rosa Luxemburg, in anticipation of her sudden end, had gathered together in the Junius Pamphlet all the forces of her genial nature for a great work – the scientific, penetrating, independently searching and pondering mind of the theoretician, the fearless, burning passion of the convinced, daring revolutionary fighter, the inner richness and the splendid wealth of expression of the ever struggling artist.

    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    First Published: 2008
    Luxemburg’s discussion regarding capitalism and democracy speaks to the world we live in today. Imperial war, she wrote, shows capitalism in “all its hideous nakedness.” This bloody nakedness is not only essential to capitalist development, but depends on it.

Mission Connexions exists to support individuals and groups working for freedom and social justice. We work to maintain and make available a record of the theory and practice of people struggling against oppression and for social change. We believe that the more we know about the struggles, victories, and defeats of the past, and about those who took part in them, the better equipped we will be to bring a new world into being. Connexions maintains a physical archive of books and documents, and is engaged in an ongoing project to build and expand an indexed digital archive of documents. We try to feature a wide variety of resources reflecting a diversity of viewpoints and approaches to social change within our overall mandate of support for democracy, civil liberties, freedom of expression, universal human rights, secularism, equality, economic justice, environmental responsibility, and the creation and preservation of community. We are internationalist in our orientation, but as a Canadian-based project we feature an especially extensive collection of Canadian documents and profiles of Canadian activist organizations.
