Sison Reader Series Book 10: Socialism: Resistance and Resurgence
Description:
In carrying out the people's democratic revolution in the Philippines, the Communist Party of the Philippines has targeted as enemies of the Filipino people not only US and other foreign monopoly capitalist powers and the local reactionary classes of big compradors, landlords and bureaucrat capitalists but also the revisionists who pose as revolutionaries but in fact espouse bourgeois reformism and pacifism and support what has amounted to capitalist restoration in socialist countries after the first half of the 20th century.
The CPP considers its firm anti-revisionist stand as a major reason for being able to learn and apply effectively the revolutionary theory of the proletariat (Marxism, Leninism and Maoism), in understanding the most important issues in the world and in the Philippines and in carrying out the people's democratic revolution along the strategic line of protracted people's war and in the direction of the socialist revolution.
Knowing the terrible consequences of not waging class struggle and social revolution, the proletariat and people of the world are driven by their own suffering and the threat of human extinction to wage class struggle and social revolution resolutely and militantly and seize all the levers of power and control from the hands of the monopoly bourgeoisie and its minions in order to achieve national liberation, democracy and socialism against imperialism, revisionism and all reaction on an unprecedented scale.
