20+ reasons why Socialism-Communism is relevant and necessary in 2026

By Nikos Mottas

As 2026 begins, the world confirms what the communist movement has long understood: capitalism is not merely experiencing turbulence — it has reached the limits of what it can offer humanity. A system once celebrated for technological progress now turns innovation into surveillance and exploitation. 

It multiplies wealth at the top while condemning the majority to insecurity.  It transforms entire regions into war zones — not for freedom, but for markets, energy routes and geopolitical dominance. It even pushes the planet itself toward irreversible destruction in the name of quarterly profits.

Russia: "Left Front" leader Sergei Udaltsov sentenced to six years in prison

On 25 December 2025, a military court in Moscow sentenced Sergei Udaltsov, coordinator of the "Left Front" movement, to six years in prison on charges of “supporting terrorism.” 
 
His so-called crime consisted solely of an article he published in 2023, where he condemned the arrest of members of the Marxist Circle in Ufa and stated that the accusations of terrorism against them were unfounded. For expressing solidarity and voicing a political opinion, Udaltsov is now being punished with years behind bars.

The fall of the USSR was a tragedy for humanity, but not the end of history

By Nikos Mottas

On 26 December 1991, when the red flag was lowered from the Kremlin for the last time, the world did not merely witness the dissolution of a state. It witnessed the victory of counterrevolution—the temporary triumph of capitalism over the most advanced historical attempt to abolish exploitation and class rule. The fall of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was not the end of an experiment that had “failed,” as bourgeois ideology insists. It was one of the greatest tragedies in human history precisely because it interrupted a process that had transformed the lives of hundreds of millions and reshaped the global balance of class forces.

10 reasons why Stalin is at the heart of anti-communist propaganda

By Nikos Mottas 

No political figure of the twentieth century has been attacked with such persistence, intensity, and ideological unanimity as Joseph Stalin. From conservative anticommunism to liberal moralism and large parts of the so-called “democratic”  left and various anti-Stalinist currents (Trotskyists, Eurocommunists, and related tendencies), hostility to Stalin functions as a shared point of convergence. This is not the result of historical curiosity or ethical sensitivity. It is a political necessity.

Stalin is targeted not primarily for what he did, but for what he represents: the most advanced historical challenge ever posed to capitalism and imperialism.

The Communist Party as the organizer and leader of the people’s struggle for the cause of workers’ power in the 21st century

By Dimitris Koutsoumbas 

On the basis of our world view and our constitutional principles, the Communist Party is the Party of the working class, its conscious and organized ideological and political vanguard, its supreme form of organization. 

It is a revolutionary organization of like-minded volunteers and fights for the overthrow of capitalism and the building of the socialist–communist society, in which all exploitation of man by man and all forms of private ownership of the means of production will be abolished and a higher standard of living and rights for the people, equality of opportunities and rights, all-round social progress will be guaranteed.

When the Left manages capitalism, the far right takes power: Lessons from Latin America

By Nikos Mottas 

Chile’s presidential election marks a clear political reversal. José Antonio Kast, a figure of the hard right, has been elected president, bringing the far right back to the country’s leadership just three years after the centre-left government of Gabriel Boric took office. 

The result is not simply a conservative swing; it reflects a deeper political disappointment and a growing sense that the previous cycle of “progressive” governance failed to deliver real change.

On the new National Security Strategy of the USA

The National Security Strategy of the USA, released last week, signals an intensification of competition and an escalation of wars across the globe, further fuelling the conflict with China for supremacy in the international imperialist system.

As the document states, “We want to recruit, train, equip, and field the world’s most powerful, lethal, and technologically advanced military to protect our interests,” as well as “We want to halt and reverse the ongoing damage that foreign actors inflict on the American economy.”
