The mass uprising against French President Macron’s pension reforms has been historic. The undemocratic and repressive methods of the government have called into question the legitimacy of the Macron government and the French state. An interview with Sylvestre Jaffard about the dynamics.
A report on Saturday’s demonstration organised by XR rebellion.
In 1971, the Pakistan army began a brutal crackdown against Bengalis in which hundreds of thousands of women were detained and repeatedly brutalised. Only now are their stories beginning to be told.
Capital has the tendency to produce a working class which views the existence of capital as necessary. To struggle against this, workers must be imbued with the vision of a new society. But clearly, this cannot be 20th century socialism.

The Central government says the multiplicity of labour laws is done away with by integrating them into ‘labour codes’. A look at the results.
Promises made by the BJP, public money, historical facts and several others have all evaporated into thin air. And even though millions of voters are scurrying around looking for them, all they have found so far is a big jumla.
In the Sammed Shikharji matter, the Indian Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change stated that the site is of significance not only for Jains but for the nation as a whole. If so, are the sacred landscapes of Adivasis and other communities also not of national significance?
Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
Address: D-15, Ganesh Prasad, Naushir Bharucha Marg, Mumbai- 400007.
