Emancipation & Liberation

This is the blog of the Republican Communist Network for our magazine Emancipation & Liberation.

We encourage debate amongst the left, so all articles are the viewpoints of their individual author(s) and their existence here does not guarantee that they are the position of the RCN or individual RCN members, although in some cases this may be the case.

We publish the Emancipation & Liberation magazine to encourage wider debate amongst communists, socialists and socialist republicans throughout the UK and Ireland.

We are united under the slogans:

• Republicanism
• Independent working class organisation
• Revolutionary Democracy & Culture
• Internationalism from below
• Workers’ Power
• International Socialist Revolution
• World Communism

We see the fight for republicanism as integral to our fight for world communism.

We fight to form a genuine communist wing in the current anti-globalisation/anti-capitalist movement, fighting against exploitation and oppression by championing human emancipation and liberation.

The aims of the RCN are:

• To promote awareness & understanding of republican communist ideas within the wider socialist & working class movement.
• To organise educational meetings & to coordinate joint activity.
• To deliver concrete solidarity to working class, republican, anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist struggles
• To promote internationalism.
• To promote & develop the cultural aspects of the struggle for socialism.
