Crisis of the Regime and the Dynamics of Struggle

Marksist Tutum, 17 December 2021

It has been quite obvious for some time that the fascist regime is in serious trouble as it failed to prevent the slide from economic crisis to economic collapse and used up the space for manoeuvre in foreign policy.

Ideological Repercussions of the Historical Impasse

Elif Çağlı, 30 July 2008

Today, numerous indications point to the fact that capitalism is suffering an existential crisis. Marxism explains that there can be no capitalism without crises. This is vindicated by the current state of global economy. The upper echelons of finance capital seek to postpone the crisis and save the banks and credit...
