Book Launch: The New Commune-ist Manifesto
September 02, 2013
The trade union movement and the Left have lost their vision of the way forward. Some key questions are asked, but no answers are forthcoming that resonate with the billions of people who comprise today’s working class. What is the alternative to capitalism? How do we get there, wherever there is?
Where can we go to even begin searching for a renewed sense of socialist purpose? Back to the beginning of the Left and the union movement, argue four longtime Canadian union and political activists in a new book “written” by “an avatar of the international working class” Ernesto (Ernie) Raj Peshkov-Chow.
About the Author:
Ernesto (Ernie) Raj Peshkov-Chow is an avatar of the international working class. He is all of us and yet none of us. He is the ideal post-ethnic internationalist, working-class militant. Created by Gary Engler, in writing the New Manifesto Ernie was also directed by Al Engler, Jean Rands and Yves Engler. These four have over 150 years of class struggle among them.
