Hello,
We all know war is being a desastre for ukraine, and that it will lead to a major crisis after the end, which can end just with russia attaining its objectives… but what I ask is different than that…
- how the popular masses are living it ?
- what are its spectatives about the war and its government (and not just government, but ruling class and elites)
- what’s the status of the correlation of forces, classes struggle, organisation(s) of the proletariat.
In fact, I think this is crucial to see if there is a possibility (even tiny) of solving the inevitable crisis post-defeat with a revolutionary change…
Yeah, I know I am a dreamer… but we need to always have revolution in mind :)
This is a question for ukranians lurking around (I know there are some)… but anyone who knows something, please comment !
Nothing is changing appreciably from any Marxist point of view. Before and after the war, all belligerent states will be as in the same situation. However, without even being optimistic you can at least see some furthering of history in that the unipolar moment and the domination of western capital is over and we now have it counterbalanced with a strong anti-imperialist alliance of multiple states dominated by socialist China. If the war had gone in favour of the west we’d be looking at another few decades of stagnant barbaric misery.
China’s success and example to the developing world will continue to inspire.
