[Book] Thawra hatta’l nasr! – Revolution until Victory!

The Arab Revolution represents a turning point in world history. The stormy events in the Arab world have inspired workers and youth everywhere. The present volume is a selection of the main articles on the revolutions in Tunisia and Egypt published on marxist.com from January to March 2011. It also contains articles on Libya and the rest of the Arab world.

These articles provide a blow-by-blow account of these dramatic events. But they also contain an analysis of the social conditions and class forces that have propelled the revolution. They show that the Arab Revolution is not an isolated event but a manifestation of the general crisis of world capitalism.

This book is not written for bourgeois academics but as a contribution to the class struggle. It is dedicated to those courageous class fighters who braved the bullets and batons of the repressive forces to change their lives. The authors are not merely observers but active participants in the worldwide struggle against oppression and exploitation.

We warmly commend this book for the attention of every class conscious militant, not just in the Arab world but to the workers and youth who are fighting for a better future in every country and continent. We firmly believe that this struggle can only end in the expropriation of the bankers, landlords and capitalists and the creation of a new world order – socialism.
