Gramsci - Penseur et
Révolutionnaire
Presentation
Forced by the general
crisis of capitalism, the imperialist bourgeoisie has again impressed a
disastrous course of misery, degradation, war on humanity and, more than in
the past, devastation and pollution of the planet. This course of things
will change only establishing socialism in the imperialist countries.
How can socialist
revolution be done? This is therefore the decisive issue on the agenda
today. Communists, and all responsible and advanced people must answer to
this problem in theory and in practice.
In the last century the
communist parties born within the first Communist International (1919-1943)
carried out protracted and heroic struggles in the imperialist countries
- for the defence and
expansion of the rights of the masses in the institutions of bourgeois
democracy,
- for improving the
material and spiritual conditions of the masses,
- against Nazi-fascism.
They had achieved great
results. However, they struggled without a strategy to seize the power and
establish socialism. They struggled blindly. The results confirm this.
Human beings need to
establish socialism and are able to do it. The establishment of socialism,
however, does not fall from heaven, it is not inevitable, it is not the
spontaneous result of historical evolution. But in the same way the
non-establishment of socialism is neither inevitable nor an accident: it is
the consequence of the fact that those who wanted to establish it did not
have a proper strategy or that they lacked altogether strategy, fighting
blindly.
Now the imperialist
bourgeoisie and in particular the International Community of the Europeans,
Americans and Zionists imperialist groups are eliminating the achievements
the masses get out in the early part of the last century, during the first
wave of proletarian revolution that the October Revolution in Russia raised
throughout the world. Today to make the socialist revolution is the main
task for all humanity; it is the task that determines our future.
In the last century,
Antonio Gramsci was the only one among the Communist leaders of the
imperialist countries who took up the exhortation made by Lenin to the
communist parties in his relation at the Fourth Congress of the Communist
International (November 13, 1922 -
Five years of the Russian Revolution and the prospects of world revolution)
to study the strategy of the socialist revolution in their respective
countries. Although closed in fascist prisons from 1926 until the imminence
of death in 1937, Gramsci set in his
Prison Notebooks valuable insight into the conditions, the forms and the
results of class struggle in Italy and more generally in the imperialist
countries. In particular
- he has shown that owing
to the nature of the socialist revolution its strategy must be the
protracted revolutionary people's war (which he called “war of position” in
order to escape fascist censorship),
- he explained the nature
of the Communist Party (which he called the modern Prince) and the role it
has to fulfil.
Antonio Gramsci’s work is
valuable for anyone who wants to learn from the experience of the first wave
of proletarian revolution. Two obstacles are opposed to this use of
Gramsci’s work: to ignore it and to distort it.
Those who distort it
present and study Antonio Gramsci as a great and original intellectual, a
victim of fascists, surely a communist one, but anti-Stalinist and maybe
even anti-Soviet. In this film we present they are the opponents of this
second kind who have the floor. They are seven Italian and French university
professors, who have studied the writings of Gramsci, but they themselves do
not deal with the matter Gramsci deals in his writings: the socialist
revolution in the imperialist countries. They are like intellectuals who
expose the ideas of a distinguished chemist, but as to them they do not know
anything about chemistry, indeed they argue that a science of the
transformation of matter as chemistry is, doesn’t exist and can’t exist.
Gramsci deals with the activities by which men make their own history:
Marxism in fact is the science of these activities. Marxists claim that it
is scientifically possible to know these activities and to develop a science
by which men from now on can be guided in making their story. The teachers
who speak in this film instead present Gramsci as a student of the doctrine
of a mysterious matter that they call Praxis. They treat his work the same
way as a generic work of philosophy and history. They compare Gramsci’s
ideas with the ideas of other philosophers and historians rather than
comparing Gramsci’s ideas of with the practice of the socialist revolution
in Italy, in other European countries, in the USA. They deal with ideas
rather than dealing with the socialist revolution in the imperialist
countries, which Gramsci is dealing with. So they are not the ones who can
show us what is valuable to us in the work of Gramsci.
However, we believe that
this film is useful to arouse the curiosity and the interest of those who
ignore Gramsci’s work. That is why this we spread it, for lack of anything
better.
We hope that communists
and others French people of goodwill will be encouraged to study Gramsci’s
works and will gain teachings to successfully deal with their current task:
the socialist revolution in France.
