Art is a cultural weapon. It is a tool for educating, for inspiring change. It gives voice to the injustices of the past and present and gestures toward a more just future. The Israeli government seems to recognize this fact. In over two months of slaughter, Israeli forces have devastated Gaza’s cultural sector.
The law provides a model for how the knowledge and traditions of small-scale farming can be defended against corporate dispossession.
One of the most compelling aspects of Venezuela’s ongoing Bolivarian Revolution, founded with the election of Hugo Chávez in 1999, is the central role that communes play in the process. There are almost 50,000 communes in Venezuela, concentrated in the countryside and the urban barrios.
When it comes to Western Sahara, the West’s collective silence can be called nothing but a double standard. An important reason is that many Western countries profit from the illegal exploitation of Sahrawi resources.
Articles on the ongoing tragedy in Haiti do not highlight the nefarious role that groups affiliated with the United Nations and the US have played in Haiti in the past, and the positive role that other countries in the Global South, particularly Venezuela, have had on Haiti’s development.
Walter Rodney wrote, “The development of Europe [was] part of the same dialectical process in which Africa was underdeveloped.” In recent decades, Canada has played an outsized role in this process of underdevelopment – particularly in Burkina Faso.
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.
