Jew-hatred and the slaughter of Jews--pogroms--like Hamas carried out on October 7, 2023, aren't new. They go back centuries.

Produktbeschreibung
Jew-hatred and the slaughter of Jews--pogroms--like Hamas carried out on October 7, 2023, aren't new. They go back centuries. What is new is that pogroms are now part of the permanent social convulsions and wars of the imperialist epoch. Capital's rivalry to carve up the globe; two world wars; the extermination of six million Jews. All make clear that fighting Jew-hatred is of decisive importance to the working class and oppressed nations of the entire world. As British and US rulers slammed the doors in the 1940s to survivors of the Holocaust, Israel's birth as a refuge for Jews was necessary and inevitable. It is a capitalist state in an imperialist world, however, and offers no lasting haven for Jews. Under capital's world domination, no such haven exists. But there is a way forward, as shown by the October 1917 Russian Revolution. A revolutionary workers party forged in struggle by V.I. Lenin--the Bolsheviks--led the toilers to conquer state power and chart a course to end capitalist exploitation and national oppression. Working people across the former tsarist empire took destiny in their own hands and together began to build a new world, finding ways to resolve seemingly intractable conflicts among themselves. They showed the road for working people today: forging proletarian parties able to lead hundreds of millions to fight for workers power, uproot exploitation by capital, end all national oppression, and build a socialist world.
Autorenporträt
Dave Prince (1943- ) has been a member of the National Committee of the Socialist Workers Party since 1977. Among his responsibilities over the years he helped lead party trade union fractions in several industries. In the 1990s and early 2000s he headed the party's print shop in New York, which produced the Militant newsweekly and books published by Pathfinder. He helped lead the transition to digital printing, which opened the door to organizing volunteer supporters in the US and elsewhere to take on much of the work previously done in the shop to prepare books and party material to be printed. Today, among other responsibilities, Prince leads the work with the party's worldwide network of organized supporters. He is the author of the introduction to The Jewish Question: A Marxist Interpretation (2020).
