La Teoría de la Revolución Permanente es un descubrimiento histórico, un arma de la lucha de clases y de la emancipación a nivel global. Sin duda, en la era de la globalización, estamos viviendo en la época de la revolución mundial permanente. Nos guste o no, la Revolución Bolivariana de Venezuela es parte intrínseca de las luchas históricas de la revolución permanente internacional.

While the Venezuelan ship of state, for a while, still encounters itself in the revolutionary doldrums, let us look at our black, golden future.

Sometime ago, Alfredo Bremont wrote a most interesting commentary: "The US shooting Venezuelan (Russian built) MIGs could be really dangerous".

At approximately 12:30 PM today, 5½ hours after the opening of polling stations, the first Palestinian voter succeeded in casting a ballot at the Jaffa Gate post office in the old city of East Jerusalem.

Israeli-imposed obstacles to voting at the Jaffa Gate polling station typify the problems Palestinians are experiencing as they attempt to conduct democratic elections under Israeli occupation. The Israeli government is attempting to limit Palestinian voting in East Jerusalem in particular as part of an attempt to deny Palestinian rights and identity there.

Election day is looming in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, and like it or not, Palestinians are abuzz.

Rumors are floating about everywhere as to just how these elections for the next leader of the Palestinian Authority (PA), the first since 1996, will be run. The atmosphere in East Jerusalem, where I have been staying for the last twenty-four hours, is much different than the rest of the country. In East Jerusalem, life seems to carry on as usual, but aside from the random conversations here and there (even to a non-Arabic speaker, you hear the names Abu Mazen and Barghouti floating about), there are no signs of the election.

Knowledge is Power! This the ancient Greek "Seven Wise Men" already knew. Spearheaded by the Enlightenment, especially by Francis Bacon's empiricism, positivism and pragmatism, this was confirmed by the emergent bourgeois, capitalist, democratic, mechanical, materialist class.
Knowledge and Power ... that are supposed to be synonymous ... have another age-old sine qua non: gnothi seauton! -- Erkenne Dich Selbst! Know Thyself, long ago already inscribed in the Temple of Apollo, in whose shadow Aristotle was teaching ancient political practice and theory to his peripatetic disciples and students.

Cualquier revolución se mueve, se desarrolla y avanza. Las revoluciones sociales, precisamente porque son sociales, tienen un carácter histórico y no ocurren de manera aislada, no son islas, sino están intervinculadas con otros procesos globales. Definitivamente esto también es el caso con la Revolución Bolivariana de Venezuela.

Esto también implica – porque se profundiza y se revoluciona desde adentro – que obedece a las leyes y la ciencia del movimiento, es decir, a la dialéctica. De acuerda con esto, una revolución social es una contradicción, es una unidad y contradicción de opuestos, en otras palabras, aparece con su propia negación, con la contrarrevolución, con lo obsoleto que resiste a morir.

Ciência Social e Revolução

The Theory of Permanent Revolution is a historical discovery, an armed weapon of global class struggle, of world emancipation. Beyond doubt, in the era of globalization, we are living in the epoch of permanent world revolution. Whether we like it or not, the Bolivarian Revolution of Venezuela is part and parcel of the historic struggles of international permanent revolution.

It is not pure chance that President Chávez bought Trotsky's famous work, "The Permanent Revolution" in Madrid. As leading political figure of the Bolivarian Revolution, logically, sooner or later this had to happen.
