90th anniversary of the murder of Rosa Luxemburg

by Bill Templer
Rosa's legacy of activism and analysis is being revitalized.
Today is the 90th anniversary of the murder of Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht. As we stand witnesses once again to 21st century barbarism, we do well to recall her dictum ‘socialism or barbarism.’ The International Luxemburgist Network
[ http://www.luxemburgism.lautre.net/ ], The International Luxemburgist Forum
[ http://luxemburgism.forumr.net/portal.htm ] and other sites are revitalizing a new reception of her ideas.

Staughton Lynd mentions Rosa’s “working-class self-activity paradigm,” and sees her as among the few socialist thinkers and activists who sought a kind of “fusion of Marxism and anarchism” (Staughton Lynd & Andrej Grubacic, Wobblies & Zapatistas. Conversations on Marxism, Anarchism and Radical History, Oakland: PM Press, p. 20) relevant to pathways forward today.
