PRESS RELEASE
Irish communists to celebrate 90th anniversary of
1917 Revolution in Russia
18 October 2007
Irish, German and Cuban communists, as well as the many communists from abroad now living and working in Ireland, will come together next week to celebrate the 1917 October Revolution in Russia.
While many in the political establishment and in national and international academic circles have proudly proclaimed the “end of history” and the complete victory of capitalism over socialism, the very experience of working people around the globe points in the opposite direction.
The October Revolution heralded the dawn of a new era, when the exploitation of one person by another ended and a new mode of social development burst forth. The October Revolution gave concrete expression to the long-held aspirations and demands of workers around the world, including Ireland.
The October Revolution laid the basis for the securing of such demands as the eight-hour working day, forty-hour working week, equality between men and women, universal free health care and free education at all levels, child-care facilities, affordable housing, and the ending of illiteracy for millions of people.
Today many workers throughout the developed capitalist world who secured the long-cherished demands of the labour movement because of the very existence of the Soviet Union are now experiencing renewed attacks on those gains. Since the counter-revolution and the dismantling of socialism in the Soviet Union, workers throughout the developed capitalist countries are now seeing their own gains under sustained attack, including the eight-hour day, forty-hour week, job security, retirement at sixty-five and security in old age, as well shelter and many other social provisions.
One of the main speakers at the celebrations will be a survivor of German fascist concentration camps, the world-renowned philosopher Hans Heinz Holz, one of whose books, The Downfall and Future of Socialism, has been translated into many languages. He is flying from Zürich to Dublin to join the celebrations. He speaks very good English and will be available for interview from 25 to 27 October.
Noel Carrillo, the Cuban Ambassador to Ireland, will also address the meetings in Dublin and Belfast on the continuing relevance of the Russian Revolution for Cuba and for the revolutionary process now under way in Latin America.
Eugene McCartan, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Ireland, will outline the impact of the October Revolution in Ireland, with the establishment of the Limerick Soviet and the occupation of creameries and buildings around the country by workers. He will also deal with the lessons that the Irish labour movement needs to take from the struggle to build socialism and the consequences of the defeat of the Soviet Union.
The celebration events will take place in Liberty Hall, Dublin, on Friday 26 October from 8 p.m. There will also be a celebration event in Belfast on Thursday 25th.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4The contribution made by CPI to modern Ireland can only be guessed at. None can underestimate their impact.
Talk about a very steep learning curve! Not only are the CPI and their Stalinist mates not socialists, they are the complete opposite - they are totalitarians. Marx, no doubt, is spinning in his grave, head in hand, muttering "Well, if they guys are Marxists, then I'm no Marxist!!!"
A disgrace to the workers movement and hijackers of the 1917 revolution.
And all the nameless ones who vanished.

This is a commemeration of 1917. Not 1930 nor 1953. You should attend the event and get involved in a discussion about where the revolution went wrong, what are the lessions top be learned from 1917 for the workers movement. 1917 was the first attempt at workers power. It should be commemerated but we should also analyise its failure. IMO major contributing factors would include in no particular order;
Capitalist intervention in the civil war
Failure of European uprisings
The cult of the personality existing before Stalin
War communism - from a necessity to the norm
The one party state
Kronstat
The NEP retreat from communism
Collectivisation
Censorship of left opposition
the party replacing tyhe power of the soviets
