The article examines the invasion of Iraq through a Communist Left analysis of imperialism, arguing that modern imperialism is not simply the aggressive policy of individual states but a general condition of mature capitalism and global competition. It criticises bourgeois pacifism, appeals to the United Nations, and the treatment of national resistance as an independent proletarian alternative.

Rejecting comparisons between Iraqi resistance, the Paris Commune, and Stalingrad, the text instead advances the perspective of active defeatism and class struggle. It considers the position of Iraqi proletarian-soldiers, the role of Kurdish and other partisan forces, the legacy of anti-war resistance during the Vietnam War, and the need to preserve proletarian forces for future struggles extending beyond Iraq into the Western metropolises.

0:00 Video Introduction

4:59 Active Defeatism and the Class War

Sets out the alternative of active defeatism among Iraqi proletarian-soldiers and turns toward the necessity of preserving proletarian forces for future class struggle, ultimately locating the decisive battleground in the Western metropolises.

This essay examines Marxism, communist theory, invariance, revisionism and the misuse of authority within the workers’ movement, beginning from the formula ipse dixit—“he said it”—and the tendency to treat quotations from Marx, Lenin, Bordiga, and other revolutionary figures as substitutes for theoretical method.

Against both dogmatism and revisionism, the text presents communist theory as the impersonal product of a historical movement extending across generations rather than the intellectual property of individual thinkers. Through the metaphor of workers riveting a bridge, it develops the Communist Left conception of theoretical continuity, collective knowledge, the class party and the reversal of praxis.

0:00 Video Introduction

1:06 Ipse Dixit: Authority and Repetition

Examines the difference between repeating theory as part of collective learning and invoking Marx, Lenin or other figures as authorities whose words supposedly settle an argument.

2:48 Riveting the Bridge

Uses the construction of a bridge as a metaphor for communist theory: knowledge accumulates through coordinated, impersonal work across generations rather than belonging to any single thinker or author.

5:49 Marx, Invariance, and the Reversal of Praxis

Presents Marx as a spokesman of a broader historical movement and develops the idea of an invariant body of communist theory and praxis produced through class struggle and directed toward humanity’s conscious control over its own social development.

10:58 Dogma and the Communist Programme

Distinguishes communist theory from dogma while criticizing anti-dogmatism, revisionism and quotation-fetishism, concluding that theory serves as a guide to action for the party and the class rather than for isolated individuals.

Beginning with the historical debate over whether the Soviet Union was socialist or capitalist, Camatte turns to Bordiga’s critique of capitalist development, the productive forces and humanity’s destructive separation from nature. He connects Bordiga’s communist perspective on the human species to his own later concept of “inversion,” examining technology, economic growth, communist behaviour, humanity’s relationship with nature and the possibility of overcoming capitalist society.

Audiobook

A substantive and highly informed critique of Stalin’s 1951 treatise ‘Economic Problems of Socialism in the USSR’, and its theoretical rationalizations and justifications of the course taken by Soviet economic development; in particular taking to task Stalin’s claim that socialism has been realized, i.e. lower stage communism.


There are many choice quotes that can be extracted from the text - for example, the shallowness of smuggling in ‘state industrialism under the socialist banner’, and palming it off as if it represented a socialist advance; how Soviet industrialization represents a similar process of primitive accumulation (although I believe the German translates closer to ‘original accumulation’) as described by Marx in Capital; Bordiga even goes so far as to say that in much of the undeveloped world a certain glorification of the productive forces is ‘necessary.’


But what Bordiga is absolutely not prepared to accept is that this is socialist or a socialist process. He characterizes the Soviet economy as state capitalist.

This Communist Left / left communist polemic attacks Holocaust denial and negationism in a leaflet issued with La Guerre Sociale and six other groups. Reaffirming the approach of “Auschwitz or the Great Alibi,” it argues that opposition to bourgeois anti-fascism requires exposing capitalism’s crimes without denying the Nazi extermination of the Jews, the gas chambers or the responsibility of their perpetrators.

The text defends historical materialism and independent proletarian class struggle against fascism, capitalist democracy and imperialism, while criticizing attempts within the revolutionary milieu to turn anti-anti-fascism into Holocaust revisionism.
