LV Magazine March
or: Previous Issues

We are celebrating several revolutionary anniversaries: the 150th birthday of Rosa Luxemburg last Friday, and the 150th anniversary of the Paris Commune in ten days. The new issue of our magazine, which appears on the first Sunday of every month, tries to draw lessons from the history of the workers’ movement for current debates on the Left. We look at “Marxist reformism” and liberal takes on fascism, as well as the potentially historic unionization campaign in Alabama. This issue looks at Brecht’s approach to art and concludes with an interview with two revolutionary workers running for the Constitutional Convention in Chile.

We are making the contents of this magazine freely available all at once. Yet we still need support to build up a revolutionary socialist publication. If you enjoy this magazine, please consider donating $5, $10, or whatever you can. You can make a contribution via Paypal or Patreon.

The Convulsive Interregnum of the International Situation

The capitalist world is in a "permacrisis" — a prolonged period of instability which may lead to catastrophic events. The ongoing struggles for hegemony could lead to open military conflicts.

“Poor Things” Floats Like a Butterfly and Stings Like a Butterfly

Poor Things is a fantastical comedy with beautiful set design and costumes and an Oscar-winning performance from Emma Stone. So why did it leave me feeling so empty? Despite juggling feminist and socialist ideas, the film is ideologically muddled and often self-contradictory.

“Oppenheimer” Shows the Betrayals of Stalinism and the Dangers of Lesser Evilism

Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" is a striking tale of a man who leaves the Left because of the betrayals of Stalinism. The film is also a warning about where lesser evilism in the face of the Far Right can lead us.

Lord Balfour Was an Imperialist Warmonger 

We should give our full solidarity to the Palestine Action comrade who defaced a portrait of Arthur Balfour at Cambridge University. But the problem for everyone who opposes the genocide against Gaza is how to massify and politically equip the movement.
