Although there are still many votes to be counted the broad outlines of the South African election are clear. With massive unemployment, high rates of violence, collapsing services such as water, electricity and roads as well as brazen corruption, it is not surprising that people are turning away from the party of national liberation.
Violent protests erupted in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir over rising costs of food, fuel and essential utilities. There is growing discontent over the perceived discrimination by the federal government in Islamabad. Also: Interview with Justice (retd) Syed Manzoor Hussain Gillani.
The segmentation of Palestinian history resulting from Oslo is quickly disappearing in favor of a wholesome approach to justice in Palestine. Though Washington and a few of its western allies insist on returning to the status quo of endless negotiations, others are no longer beholden to that kind of stifling, self-serving discourse.
U.S. Jews’ involvement in Palestinian solidarity movements began years before the current war. The author says that during her research, which included in-depth interviews and participant observation work, activists emphasized that they were inspired to act because of their Jewish identity and values, not in spite of them.
Regardless of what country we live in, we all have a stake in the Argentine people’s success in fighting off the Milei austerity package. If a country with one of the most militant working classes can have extreme austerity imposed on them, similar offensives will soon be on the way elsewhere.
The International Monetary Fund claims to aim for a world of prosperity through so-called free trade. In Latin America, the IMF has contributed to the impoverishment of the working class and destruction of these countries’ ecological legacies. What does the future hold for the IMF in Latin America?
The U.S.-led New Cold War against China is destabilising Northeast Asia along the region’s historic fault lines as part of a broader militarisation campaign that extends from Japan and South Korea, through the Taiwan Strait and the Philippines, all the way to Australia and the Pacific Islands.
South of the Algerian town of Tindouf on the border with Western Sahara are five refugee camps. The camps are home to the Sahrawi people of Western Sahara and are administered by their freedom movement Polisario, which is fighting to liberate their homeland from Morocco.
Colonial administrators in Burma were largely in favour of removing the province from the rest of India and administering it as a separate colony.
The lies. The packs of lies—deliberate, filthy, and deadly. And they keep going. As if the world owes Israel and its “most moral army in the world” something—after it massacred more than 35,000 Palestinians in six months.
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.
