Crisis and Revolution
SOCIALIST REVOLUTION
From this101 years ago, on November 7, 1917, workers and poor peasants in Russia destroyed the exploitation of bosses. This historical event, which took place as the October Revolution in history, is of great importance for two reasons. The fact that the working people act with the will to change the existing order by rising up against inequalities is the first issue to be addressed. The right to escape from an unjust, exploitative social system, namely the right to revolution, was first used so extensively by the October Revolution. The revolution removed the old order and paved the way for the establishment of a classless, non-exploitative order. Over time, the name of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and spread to a wide geography emerged like this country. This is the second reason that the October Revolution has a unique place in human history.
SocialThe demolition of the Soviet Union in 1991 for internal and external reasons, which sets out to establish a system in which the classes have completely disappeared and where people will live in a free, brotherly and prosperous way on an egalitarian basis, shows the impossibility of communism, nor the supremacy of capitalism. On the contrary, in spite of Nazi barbarism, which caused the death of more than 25 million citizens in World War II, the Soviet Union not only destroyed the hunger, poverty, unemployment and injustice, but the country turned into a superpower through industrialization based on central planning, and achieved great success in the scientific field. created an environment for creative productivity in the field of culture and arts. Tens of millions of people in the former Soviet republics of the Russian Federation, unemployment, poverty, after the Soviet Union disintegrated
Today , with a few exceptions, capitalism prevails all over the world. Imperialism continues to use any means of military, political and economic means to eliminate the exceptions. Cuba has not abandoned its socialism preference for many years. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is forced to live with the threat of military intervention in the United States. The idea of intolerance to these two countries is an attempt to eradicate the notion that there is an alternative to the exploitation order at the source.
It is possible and necessary to overcome capitalism . The elimination of this order, which is based on social inequalities, condemns billions of people to hunger and poverty, which cannot give anything other than crisis and wars to mankind. Communism is the only way to overcome capitalism. The aspiration of a classless, exploitative society will begin when the sovereignty of a parasitic class, which is enriched by others, is terminated.
REPUBLIC OF TURKEY: ESTABLISHED my circuit,
AGAINST THE LIQUIDATION with circuit
1917The October Revolution was the herald of a revolutionary wave that encompassed the whole world. In all capitalist countries, especially in Europe, the wider public segments rebelled against war, hunger and injustice, power overthrowing, and the flag of equality and freedom rising everywhere. The National Liberation Struggle which started in 1919 in the Anatolian region of the Ottoman Empire which was shared by the victorious imperialist states with the end of the First World War was also the product of this wave. Although not a working class character, this struggle, which was under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal, became an important element of the revolution front thanks to the imperialist occupation and its determination towards the obsessed Ottoman institutions. The young Soviet State quickly established relations with the struggle in Anatolia, and provided him with arms and money, internationally defended his rights. The national power in Ankara respected the interests of the Soviet Union and became friendly with it.
AnatoliaAfter the resistance movement became a power project embodied in the proclamation of the Republic on 29 October 1923, it entered a fast capitalization process in accordance with the class character of its leadership. both economically and politically with relative independent character after a period of the Republic of Turkey shared the fate of all the bourgeois revolution and the reactionary character of the capitalist class in the early stages of the process quickly began to make itself felt. As the bourgeoisie strengthened, pressures against the weak working class of the organization increased, the economic and political relations with the imperialist system developed, and the hostile attitude towards the Soviet Union was entered. Independence, secularism, statism, populism, such as the glorification of the values of the establishment of the Republic of this or that politician, not the preference of the class came to the agenda. At one point, the current order had to throw away the Republican values, which were abused by Americanist, reactionary and popular enemy policies. The imperialist countries and Turkey boss class gave this tender for the AKP. The result is obvious. The Republic of Turkey was founded with the revolution, the counter-revolution has been defeated.
The Republic was liquidated. This liquidation can be explained not only by the complete elimination of the principles and achievements referred to by it and devalued over time, but by the absence of any in-place actor to fight back even a small portion of those principles and achievements. In this sense, the ending of the AKP government within the current system will not mean a return to the spirit of 1923. In other words, neither the economic nor the political capital of the AKP's Turkey in terms of layout alternatives it is currently available.
AKP to establish a replacement of the Republic sapped domestic exist for preventing layout dynamics are not internal balances or the layout of politics, the AKP's "new Turkey" liquidated close to the design and in the medium term is social resistance that seems unlikely. The AKP not transform into social authority gained hegemony in the political plane, so the AKP, Turkey has won the residency. However, it will evaporate after helping an order domestic operations will solve the tension between the long-term if converted into energy or to be damped or AKP, Turkey has to ensure that legitimized with little makeup and the capitalist class in terms of political space and social space for said resistance laborers and revolutionary character of an uprising.
The AKP it establishes the functioning of its state. This operation, which is simplified by some and is underlined as ”palace erek, has a” modern küç character that is not out of date with its in finish ay structure which corresponds to the current needs of capital. The cases such as incompetence, ignorance and lack of hardware, which are justified by the AKP, often lead to wrong results. Turkey, which is not in the mind of the bourgeoisie, but the AKP government, depth or after a point is meaningless to talk about quality. The team lost a lot of time in the AKP, which sought to meet losses from other sources in the hands of capital from the bourgeoisie, by the accumulation of this aspect of the AKP in Turkey has decreased in terms of accumulation increase instantaneously. In this regard the AKP Turkey exaggerating fabricated Excludes capital capitalism are flatterers and Trump May, Macro, They cannot understand the reasons for decay in the developed capitalist countries represented by Merkel. The period when the bourgeoisie added something to humanity is long gone. The capital class cannot fulfill its destructive mission with an es advanced gibi staff, nor can it develop its own advanced. Today, those who were surprised pespayelig to its source in Turkey, in the final analysis should be aware that the system of exploitation.
Capitalism can not be cured anywhere, and no country dominated by market rules cannot escape poverty, unemployment and inequality. Crises and wars are the reality of capitalism. Capitalism without wars and wars is not possible. Turkey has taken a similar gripper Capitalism in years. In society, such as secularism, independence and sovereignty, which are the product of a revolutionary transformation in the 1920s, are not sensitive to this system. On the anniversary of the October Revolution, the path of secularism, independence, sovereignty, and those who want a system that does not exploit human beings, coexists. Turkey is seeking the path of revolution, freedom and equality.
THERE IS AN
ALTERNATIVE OF THE ECONOMY POLICIES OF THE AKP
AKPTurkey's economy radically changing the direction of the thesis that opened to plunder the country should be approached with caution. The AKP, which was a government with the elections in November 2002, continued its economic policies implemented by the previous governments in line with the requirements of the capital class. The difference arises from the fact that the AKP has additional opportunities to overcome the political, legal and social barriers in the implementation of these policies. This is the main reason for the domestic and foreign support that is already stacked behind the AKP as a newly formed party. How the fascist coup of September 12 had a major role to play in overcoming the difficulties of the 24 January decisions that came into force on 24 January 1980,
TurkeyIn terms of its capitalism, the main feature of the period, which was opened with the Customs Union agreement of 1995, which became clear with the IMF program called ıyla Derviş Program kazanan which was implemented after the 2001 crisis, is deepening the integration into international capital. In the broadest sense, the privatization of the economic policies of the mentioned period (both public sales and public control areas to the private sector), foreign trade encouragement arrangements and deepening of the external dependency of the economy through the increase of external borrowing, the restructuring of the durable consumer goods oriented industrial production in line with the international division of labor , expanding the reserve labor army by making use of the massive internal migration wave that emerged as a result of the collapse of agriculture in line with the demands of the food monopolies,
The most important result of this period in which the marketization as a whole has gained speed and complementary policies have been applied to it has been the increase of labor and impoverishment. Beyond the decline in the average real wage, despite the low inflation rate and relatively low interest rates, all prices excluding labor power increased in real terms. The fact that the external financing has increased and the private sector has shifted from the public to the private sector, especially the international capital and financial monopolies.
All develop additional mechanisms and some applications during this period and the AKP government has taken the initiative to solve some problems accumulated. When the AKP's revised 16-year rule of capitalism independent of the orientation of Turkey, the AKP's choice of the decisive achieve an economic policy that can not be mentioned in terms of layout, such as the presence of an alternative set of policies is obvious. AKP's rhetoric not only in the history of capitalism in practice most market-oriented Turkey, the most capital-friendly, the presence of a very strong capital collaborative agreement with regard to economic policy in the most political power is the most important factor.
It is far from reflecting the fact that the AKP has implemented different economic policies in different periods and that the political power has changed its route after strengthening its hand. The period 2002-2007 has been the brightest section of the period since both the use of the 2001 crisis as a leverage and the international conditions, in particular the üzere abundance of capital hem are appropriate. However, it is evident that different economic policies have not been implemented in a long period which can be extended from the 1995-96 up to the last crisis which became evident in May 2018. Although there is a need for additional practices and regulations in order to adapt to certain periods, especially the 2008 crisis, there is no fundamental change.
EuropeanUnion / Germany clear guidance of the imperialist centers, mainly, the AKP government has taken a series of steps by Turkey to intervene directly in the structure of the economy under capitalism irreversible. Turkey sectoral diversification in terms of capitalism, quantitative increase in capacity, despite some claims were dropped completely from the dazzling growth in production and consumption figures. Imports of imports have been preferred in technology and capital intensive sectors, and the country has been turned into Europe's open market in many basic sectors, from iron and steel to chemistry. Today, the category of olmak intermediate goods elenen, which has the biggest weight in import dependency, is the main products, especially heavy industrial products such as iron and steel and chemistry. Turkey can not produce stainless steel, imported and sliced. The same applies to the paper until it reaches the shoes, which can be produced much easier and Turkey in the past is almost one hundred percent applies to sectors that make domestic production. Tüpraş, Petkim, Erdemir, Seydişehir Aluminum and SEKA have been transformed into the industrial production import dependency axis as a result of the privatization of public enterprises in the basic sectors and the investment choices made with the guidance of international capital. This transformation is the source of the current crisis table. As a result of the privatization of public enterprises in the basic sectors, particularly the SEKA, and the investment preferences made with the guidance of international capital, industrial production has been transformed into the import dependency axis. This transformation is the source of the current crisis table. As a result of the privatization of public enterprises in the basic sectors, particularly the SEKA, and the investment preferences made with the guidance of international capital, industrial production has been transformed into the import dependency axis. This transformation is the source of the current crisis table.
Productionand there is a close link between import dependency and external borrowing. Behind the ”concrete policy, of the AKP, which is easy and at the same time a false description of its political implications, international capital, especially energy, finance and technology monopolies, is located. The airport, shopping center, city hospitals, double road construction, construction, energy equipment, medical equipment, air conditioning systems and, most importantly, construction materials (iron and steel, cement) over the construction of the AKP, besides the AK contractors, have also been transferred to international capital. energy sector in Turkey "roadmap" of the World Bank has drawn. The public-private cooperation model, which boasted the most practice in the world, is also the invention and imposition of international financial monopolies.
In Turkey, one of the important channels to be dependent on imports and exports of production. Automotive, Turkey's exports in sectors such as having an important share in white goods, import content is high. With the current production structure, there is no possibility of reducing imports and increasing exports and production.
International capital of Turkey as well as benefit more from the opportunities offered as both a market, especially in this period has managed to increase its exploitation qualified emekgüc "construction-led growth", "domestic demand-led growth", "export-led growth" can hardly be tried to be described in a single model out as naming . The steps such as the liquidation of public assets and the reduction of the state's weight in the economy, as well as rapid integration into international capital have enabled the opening of different sections of the capital at the same time, and the aforementioned ağır agreement f has therefore been created very easily. Orientations until the level of development of capitalism in Turkey and areas where international capital made it possible to turn a combination of processes carried out in conjunction with each other.
The easing of household borrowing, the support of borrowing with other mechanisms to consumer loans, policies and developments that support rapid urbanization, the transfer of labor, health and education to the private sector with the exception of the sale of public enterprises and assets increased the value transferred from labor to capital by the acceleration of marketization. The extinction of country resources and the destruction of nature cannot be considered independent of the increased external dependence and the destruction of the productive forces, including the labor force. The winner of a series of practices attempted to narrow down to AKP power and pro-capital by the opposition of the order has been the whole of the class of capital, especially the large capital groups.
the capital When the expansion is examined, it is seen that the, co-capital kesintisiz or büyük rent capital z, which is fulminated by AKP policies, increases rapidly and uninterruptedly, rather than a picture where ”traditional capital sermaye or da productive capital“ is declining, and a process that opens up to new ones is taking place. Sağlam Industrial capital sağlam, the most prominent example of the automotive sector, has greatly benefited from the increase in import dependency, financialization, transportation and urbanization policies. The inaccessible increase in the geographical concentration of capital as a result of the policies of transportation and urbanization has been the result of the easy choice of international capital, especially of industrial capital, of keeping labor labor costs low, access to market, and distribution channels. Not only is the transfer of the accumulated values of the working people, but it is also important to determine that there has been a period of enormous productivity growth with the lowest possible investment, and it is important to understand the attack on labor with all its dimensions. Turkey capitalism in the economic structure and the changes in the sectoral distribution of aid capture additional expansion opportunities.
Key in the industry, the privatization of public enterprises operating in strategic areas, investment choices and decisions of the fully private sector, leaving the market, the state's pro-capitalist policies, the introduction into the practitioners' efforts to attack, developments such as the import of the borrowing of the place of public debt and finance capital extension of the current blockage as a whole Turkey belongs to capitalism. Today, on behalf of the state capital in Turkey can not be managed well, the inevitable result of capitalism's laws of motion is not functioning in the wrong interventions made by the political power of capital results are experienced.
Turkey relative terms of both capitalism without a crisis period where both quantitatively expanding capital while there has switched from a section of monopolization increased. It is clear that such a period will generate new financial resources, additional instruments for any capital power, and new capitalists close to the power. Of course, the AKP has created its own capitalists, making use of opportunities that cannot be underestimated. However, movement of the facilities concerned, neither Turkey nor for any country where capitalism is similar to the situation observed express or implied "distorted capitalism" or "anomaly" made detection is not possible.
TurkeyThe traditional capital groups, which have undergone indisputable clashes with capitalism from time to time with political power, have grown much more than the capitalists that emerged under the AKP government or sprinkled with political favoritism. With Koç Group, Tüpraş, Sabancı Group's energy privatization, or the encouragement of housing, automobile and white goods to generate heavy profits, or to create large profits for traditional capital, or to be one of Şişecam's biggest growing capital groups is the S normal ş state of capitalism, the 3rd airport. The bridge does not represent the ”abnormal ları state of the capitalism acquired by the road contractors. Capitalism is a system of exploitation, Turkey capitalist exploitation of the possibilities of taking advantage of the disorganization of the working class in particular was a time of major transition robbery enormously expanded. The internal connections of the robbery mechanism are stronger than those intended to be shown. The surplus value of the working class increased with different mechanisms, while the public assets representing the accumulated values were drawn to the capital with a great audacity.
CapitalismThe crises produced by ir by its nature ın are the bottlenecks in capital accumulation processes, the total result of what the capitalists do with more profit ambition produces the crises. In its simplest form, the fundamental contradiction between the private ownership of the means of production and the social character of the productive forces constitutes an obstacle to the uninterrupted expansion of capital under capitalism. It is theoretically possible to take steps to accelerate crises or to take measures against crises, but there is no crisis-free capitalism. Crises, the inevitable consequence of the system, are not produced by individual capitalists; it cannot be prevented by those who manage the order, including bosses. However, the first reflex of the bosses in the crisis, the consequences of the crisis to the working class and laborers will be invoiced. Together with the crisis, they try to prevent the reduction in profit rates, the depreciation of capital, the reduction of wages, the dismantling of workers' rights, the reduction of public expenditures, the increase of indirect taxes, and the reduction of total income of workers. The crisis tries to present its price as a ”natural catastrophe lar or a handful of unaccounted for by the” whole society em. The biggest advantage that the order could have in the periods of crisis, where the organized attack of the capital class and its representatives was most intense, is that the working class is unorganized. they try to prevent the gaining of their workers' rights, the reduction of public expenditures, the increase of indirect taxes, and the reduction of the total income of laborers.

The biggest advantage that the order could have in the periods of crisis, where the organized attack of the capital class and its representatives was most intense, is that the working class is unorganized.
In Turkeyall parts of the capital and the AKP government are acting together. With the confidence that the working class is unorganized, efforts are made to minimize the damage that capital can take during any crisis. One dimension of this effort is that the capital has a more integrated structure than the past. It is feared that uncontrolled submerged effects will have much greater effects than can be predicted. One of the important factors that make the crisis var manageable “is the presence of international actors, who will be directly or indirectly affected by American investment funds, European banks, and bankruptcies. But undoubtedly, more importantly, it is the disorganization of the working class. The capital structure has alan crisis engineering ve and the movement area to develop and implement fine rescue plans.
TurkeyThe basic characteristics of the crisis facing capitalism today are not only in terms of translating external debt stock, but also the difficulty of external financing, which is indispensable for the basic functioning of the economy, being on the verge of a debt crisis that may have chained results, especially a part of banks and large capital groups. import dependency and inadequacy of export-oriented production capacity. All segments of the capital, mostly large capital groups, have been unable to pay their debts, especially in foreign currency denominated borrowings. The difficulty in translating the debt burden due to the effects of international developments has triggered the increase in the exchange rate and with the increase in the exchange rate, it has become more difficult for the shareholders to pay the debts of some TL. Without any sharp decline in foreign demand or domestic demand, the rise in interest rates in order to prevent the exchange rate increase and foreign exchange outflow caused the inflation rate to rise too rapidly. Due to the rapid increase in the costs of capitalists, the decrease in production before the decline in demand was also influential in the increase in production costs and hence in prices. The rise in the exchange rate, interest and inflation trio led to a decline in the incomes of the laborers in real terms, a decrease in the purchasing power and thus a slowdown in domestic demand. The burden of the crisis was put on the back of the laboring masses rather than the measures that could be considered düş in order devam, such as the bosses paying their debts, paying their debts by paying their debts, decreasing their profit rates and suspending external debt payments.
Capital class to give up its investments in international capital in Turkey, especially in Europe can not afford to trust. Bunda relatively because even though it legitimate to have a multi-dimensional crisis of the imperialist system will allow to overcome the economic crisis Considering the dynamics in Turkey does not have a strong international models. The use of public facilities in order to maintain the current structure of capitalism Turkey needs to continue to open up new profitable fields of international capital. However, a new sector in Turkey, which presents new market opportunities, in the same band since 2012 to create a splash in the international capital released from export orientation does not appear on the horizon.
There is no possibility that the discourse of adır increasing the technology content of production katma, “technological transformation”, “high value-added production m, which is expressed by the political power as an alternative, and transformed into a new economic model under the conditions of capitalism and an alternative economic policy. Turkey's dependence on international capital level makes it impossible to take the necessary steps to change such an axis. Moreover, international balances and relations with European capital do not permit a transformation in production to meet its own domestic demand and create new markets.
the CrisisAlthough the two important results will spread over time, a capital reorganization and public debt will increase. The change of the capital of the first will be the result of the increase of monopolization as well as the closure of some enterprises and the liquidation of some activities. Temporary expropriations are possible in some sectors such as finance sector, energy sector and import dependency. This process will have more severe consequences than the 2001 crisis. The fact that the foreign dependency of the economy has reached a level that cannot be compared with the past leads to impoverishment beyond the calculated effects of inflation or exchange rate increase. It is seen that the erosion in real wages will be in the range of 10-15%, even when only inflation is taken into consideration. It is clear that the real exchange rate increase and the decline in inflation are not sufficient for the capital class, and that the wreckage needs more to collapse on the laborers. In addition to layoffs, pruning of rights other than bare wages, prolonging working times, increasing informality, public resources are more mobilized for capital.
In the basic documents of political power, the growth rate of 2.3 per cent for 2019 indicates a contraction. As a matter of fact, other estimates, especially the expectations for an increase in the unemployment rate, confirm this. Although it is tried to avoid mass layoffs at one time, it is likely that there will be an increase in the 30-40 age range, which should be taken into consideration in the educated laborer unemployment. One of the most effective methods to reduce real wages in crisis conditions is to reduce seniority. The capital will aim to fill the laborers who have 10-15 years of work experience with inexperienced workers.
The New Economy Program, 2019 budget and some other arrangements point out that the external debt of the public sector will increase, and that the Treasury, state banks and public institutions will borrow more in order for the capital to be converted. It is also announced that the share of public revenues transferred to capital will increase. Further plundering of the Unemployment Insurance Fund and the continuation of the imposition of the Private Pension System are planned to introduce further public resources and public revenues to the use of capital.
Crisisall measures taken on the grounds of direct or indirect resources to the public aims to transfer. The thesis that the crisis is caused by wrong or incompetent economic policies of the AKP government, on the other hand, is used to hide this fact. Today, apart from the Communist Party of Turkey no power as a whole, the AKP's economic policies before the crisis or the crisis, are saying that carry an indispensable element for the boss, the AKP against the capitalist class or for mobilization of international forces lobbying by those conducting the caravan itself who left also is included. The winners of this table are the bosses and the AKP government. The bosses can play the victim of economic policies they eat for 16 years. The TKP will never allow laborers to be made of the capitalist countries from the capitalist countries, will display the patronage fraud of the bosses, and insist that the AKP's policies are not due to incompetence, but to the fear of satisfying the greed of capital. This is the meaning of the BOSSES.
FOREIGN POLICY: TAKING TO STRATEGY
TodayThe most prominent feature of the AKP's foreign policy is the lack of a strategy. It would not be correct to say that the lack of a prominent strategy has spread to the whole of the 16-year AKP government; this has especially occurred in the last few years. Bunda Turkey also has a significant share of the deepening crisis of capitalism multidimensional until the age of imperialism has entered into with the AKP's transformation features. However, it should not be concluded from this point that the AKP is dragged on the foreign policy in the determinants of external factors. The AKP, which realizes that the international system will not be able to stabilize in the near future, and that the problem of hegemony within the imperialist system cannot be solved in the short term, would prefer a playful foreign policy practice, tools and objectives to a defined strategy.
Justiceand Development Party, the ruling in the first year of Turkey's foreign policy orientation to fight capitalism rather than those with traditional orientations may represent his best propaganda is leaning. The steps taken in a number of important topics such as the Kurdish issue and the Cyprus problem have been linked to this claim of the AKP. Capital has blended the traditional orientation of Turkey ruling Islamist ideology of capitalism with one hand, it moves in the foreign policy community with the other hand while inputs for conversion in this direction has tried to support this transformation. This process is a strategic direction of capitalism in Turkey,
Turkey capitalism, imperialism, this way the support and guidance and enter the AKP hand, also made it mandatory to increase their allegations in Turkey's imperialist system. Political Islam has become a foreign policy instrument out of this strategy based on the consolidation of Turkey's place within the NATO alliance, the AKP's Turkey has push it to take more initiative in the international arena. In this context, the AKP government has intensified its initiatives towards the Middle East since 2009, and especially the mass actions that started in the Arab region in 2011 saw the intellectual origins as an opportunity for the realization of yoğun new Ottomanism 2011, which was based on the beginning of the 1990s.
New Ottomanism is not compatible with the historical and social dynamics in Turkey and the Middle East at that time was said. However, it cannot be denied that New Ottomanism provides a strategic direction to the AKP government. Adding an alliance with the internationally influential actors of political Islam such as the Muslim Brotherhood along with the steps taken through the integration of the Gulen community with the state is a realistic, though not realistic, attempt to establish a political and ideological hegemony in the region. In the first few years of the imperialist intervention coded under the name üştür Arab Spring doğr, the political interests and quests of imperialism once again overlapped.
thus2000s AKP Turkey is entering the second decade of EU membership of Turkey capitalism, next to the orientations encoded with titles such as NATO commitment "new Ottomanism" was attach. Later in the Arab region, especially in Syria, as well as the developments in Turkey have disrupted the AKP's accounts as well as imperialism. The AKP government lost its strategic direction due to the fact that the new Ottomanism was on the wall both inside and outside. The loss of the Muslim Brotherhood in Tunisia, the drift of Libya into chaos, the overthrow of the Muslim Brotherhood power in Egypt with a popular support, and the failure of the Islamic militants in Syria are among the sources of this collapse in the region.
For a while, the AKP government had to accept that the effort to carry this strategy after it had skewed over the new Ottoman strategy had become very costly for itself. It is not that the Islamist government withdrew all claims and returned to the strategy in the early 2000s; anyway this is not possible. The AKP government, the Muslim Brotherhood, the jihadist mercenaries in Syria, etc. He did not end his support, but he had to accept that a hegemonic strategy leaning on them would no longer be able to get results. In other words, the new Ottoman strategy collapsed due to internal and external factors.
Roughly as of 2015-2016, the AKP government has no clear strategy in foreign policy. This has been replaced by tactical steps to exploit the gaps that emerge from competition between the imperialist powers. These steps are determined by temporary positions based on periodic needs and opportunities, rather than holistic. So today the Turkish foreign policy in stratejisizlig the main sources of AKP's foreign policy strategy as the collapse of fictionalized the policies of imperialism hegemony crisis created by the gaps and yönsüzlük and Turkey capitalism into the economic and the transformation process irreversible the kurtulmaksız their political weakness counted.
Tooththe lack of a strategic direction in policy has a number of important results. One of them is karş hyperactive ”foreign policy. In the period when the new Ottomanist strategy prevailed, it can be said that Turkish foreign policy gives an active image in a wider geography than it is today. However, these steps were revealed in the later period when they were largely subcontracted by the Gülen Community and did not reach a depth beyond the Community's organization. Today's "hyperactive" if the image of the character is different: Turkey seeks to assume a role in the struggle between imperialist blocks past few years, its foreign policy is shaping up games out on this slippery surface. In this respect, hyperactive foreign policy, It takes the form of increasing the number of non-permanent multilateral or bilateral relations and their substitution. In addition, eler acute crises ile often emerge and they can be acted with a series of foot games, trying to avoid them, and from time to time with very extensive moves, as in the case of Kaşıkçı.
Therefore, the whole of the foreign policy pursued by the AKP reflects a tightness; lacks a direction. The AKP government has a say in many issues, especially in the geography we live in, but the result is difficulties in developing buyer initiatives. The initiative requires a strategy to develop. Due to the daily developments, it is not possible for a political power that has to make constant distance between the Chinese-Russian axis and the Western axis to develop a strong initiative.
BeyondOn the other hand, we should not exaggerate the damage caused by the ”acute crises“ that we often come across in recent times. It is important to keep in mind that the current balances have lost their validity in the past. Factors such as the arrival of Bashar al-Assad in Syria or Erdogan's argument that the Palestinian problem is the key to developing the initiative in the Middle East has lost its validity. When here turns out, the confinement of the AKP's foreign policy, though had gained a certain continuity, any international balances of the dominant imperialist power can not be changed on a permanent basis a table in this situation so can afford to have political power in Turkey does not bring with it being confronted with major damage. And when the crisis of hegemony of imperialism is inverted, the whole of the country such as Turkey is to create an objectivity that compresses the international arena. It is seen that a number of countries such as Hungary, Poland, Pakistan, Malaysia, Brazil faced difficulties due to changes in the tension of competition between imperialist powers. Turkey is not the only example in this regard, but the competitiveness of the imperialist powers is one of the countries trying to instrumentalize the most tumultuous and opportunistic manner in its foreign policy.
The AKPThe question of whether or not the ruling power can continue without any strategy in foreign policy in the coming years cannot be answered independently of the question of where the crisis of imperialism will evolve. As to where the crisis will evolve, there is a limit to what can be said today. However, some trends have become apparent. One of these is the search for the restoration of the Transatlantic alliance. Although it is true that Donald Trump's input for US-based imperialist hegemony has opened the gap between the two main elements of this alliance, NATO should not be expected to collapse in the short term. If the US hegemony has been restored, it is likely that an alliance with the European wing will be more effective. From this point, It is noteworthy that the recent military, commercial and political rapprochement between the non-US elements of the alliance in question has gained considerable momentum. In fact, this process aims to reduce the friction between Europe and the United States since the George W. Bush administration and to create a new balance. The US leadership role does not have a fundamental objection, but the political change in the dominant imperialist country is expected.
The search for the restoration of the NATO alliance is unlikely to result in a total ineffective, even controlled, control of the forces of forces such as China and Russia. If the Western alliance was consolidated, it would be clear that the crisis of imperialism made it more difficult for China and Russia to go beyond certain boundaries, even if it would be clear that it would develop a strategy for superiority in any competition from China and Russia. On the other hand, there is a limit to the answers that China and Russia could give to the new situation that would arise if the Western alliance managed to consolidate. These borders are the main reasons why both countries are currently focusing on preventing the alliance recovery.
TransatlanticThe restoration of the alliance cannot solve the fundamental problems of imperialism and cannot ignore the dynamics that are shaped in the crisis. Even if the transatlantic alliance succeeds in consolidating, there will be a olm problem bile of China and Russia; the displacement of millions of people condemned to poverty will be carried out by the countries that are falling apart and dragged into chaos; religious, racist, nationalist policies, ideologies and organizations will continue to be at the center of the order. On the other hand, the threat of war, which gained momentum in this process, will continue to increase by taking different forms. In addition to the wars given by conventional weapons today, the possibility of the eruption of nuclear wars is much greater than in the 20th century.
THE REVOLUTION OF THE REVOLUTION, THE CLAIM AND LIABILITY OF THE CAP
Turkey's16 years of being ruled by the same political party, in this sense can be said for the political stability of a political order, does not mean that Turkey achieved a balance of capitalism. All during this time within the system tensions always existed in Turkey, these tensions from time to time have evolved up to the coup, even in 2013, the most comprehensive public movement witnessed in the Republic of Turkey to bear the revolutionary character has changed all the settings of Turkey. AKP government in alliance policy, the AKP alone in volatility observed over time, not in ideological rhetoric with political pragmatism, should also be explained by the fact that the ground beneath the slick capitalism with a vengeance Turkey. When the structure of the region is taken into consideration, Want to remove ideology-cultural area ahead of the evaluations are done, it will be seen that Turkey's imperial system doomed to be one of the weakest link. This is true at the center of the TKP's strategic accounts.
Turkey's being one of the weakest link in the imperialist chain is a phenomenon beyond the actuality of socialism detection. Socialism is a contemporary option for the whole of the imperialist system. In addition, once again, it is clear that we are going through a period where the fragility of imperialism in the relatively strong centers of ours has increased. While it is true that this vulnerability triggers regional and wider wars, it should be kept in mind that the powerful imperialist countries bring about a reduction in their ability to intervene, thus leading to the accumulation of more revolutionary energy in the weak linkages of the chain.
For example, the problems that cannot be solved in the NATO alliance do not eliminate the threat of the alliance to the working people, but it makes it difficult for him to get results from the interventions. In this context, the release in the vacuum created by the tensions within the imperialist system of Turkish foreign policy, even though Turkey is creating additional possibilities in terms of capitalism, but also increased the risks and terms of the system of making more playful with her under the ground.
SocialismWhile a high degree of difficulty in terms of the revolutionary struggle together, offering great opportunities for the communist movement in Turkey this opportunity to parallel social / have not reached a number of sources of political power there are objective and subjective reasons. Communist Party of Turkey, congresses and conferences are invested in this cause on the table, reviewing operations and in the light of the assessment made in the organizational structure and go over the shortcomings and weaknesses associated with it. The limited influence of the communist movement so far is not a product of strategic gaps, as it does not stem from the principles and the program that the TKP will protect and protect. On the contrary, the evaluation of the revolutionary possibilities in the coming period will be possible by insisting on the political and ideological directions so far. In this sense, TKP,
Unity,It kept on the agenda of the working class movement in Turkey and is one of the concepts that have the greatest service to the capitalist order. A revolutionary strategy requires the alliance of those who will contribute to the strategy from different points of view, as well as the unity of permanent elements of that strategy. In addition, for shorter-range targets, associations in different planes are possible if the target and the tools are shared. However, the revolutionary movement of Turkey as a result of the weakness of the communist movement, or a special "unity not to be" is a demonstration of the trap literally. Often complained of ir shopmaking kazandır, a whether it be small ın or not, the drug of the disease is not actually creating artificial units that give legitimacy to this disease. Already in the past, such troops did not give any other result than to split into smaller pieces.
UnityThe main danger posed by fetishism is the use of the communist movement as a tool in the attempt to draw under the umbrella of social democracy. broad social sectors with social democracy under the influence of the Communists, to be honest and revolutionary elements in relation to policy-makers under the umbrella of social democracy is inevitable and conditions in Turkey and is also a requirement. However, it is essential to try to undermine the influence of social democracy on the masses of the working people in an open-hearted fashion without entering into small accounts. This has nothing to do with weakening the resistance to the current political power. On the contrary, an element that adds power and continuity to the current political power is the opposition of the order. TKP does not have any reservations about valuing every honest position and struggle in the interests of the working people.
Turkey path of the revolution, the revolution of the positioning class rises to crystallize, with the creation of the infrastructure of the alliance will be opened today. Based on the narrowing of the social base of the Communist movement, the unique result of stretching the class outlook and position in current politics is to integrate. The socialization of a political formation, the dynamics of growth, always give it its own color. Numerous in revolutionary um subjects, who have ceased to be themselves for the sake of empowerment, constitute a tragicomic mass of pollution within a history of pride.
In Turkey, a revolutionary strategy, the only revolutionary transformation of this land has ever lived reality and can not win by taking refuge in the process of bourgeois revolution crowned the 1923 establishment. 1920 tracks that can not be removed and discarded revolutionary breakthrough occurred in Turkey during another, he set the strategic direction of the revolutionary transformation of a new breakthrough it is another thing. In this sense, secularism and patriotism cannot even have the energy to defend themselves because they have a status quo character as long as they remain outside the revolutionary strategy of the working class and oriented towards socialism. In fact, the main reason why the secular and independence sensitivity cannot give the necessary response in the face of the AKP's interventions is that they act with reflex protection.
Turkeythe communist movement, on the basis of the unity of the working people, must continue to defend the common class interests and objectives against the division of the working class on ethnic, religious, cultural or sectoral foundations. This approach for years of discrimination, the imperialist accounts within the system and the balance of reciprocal nationalism trapped between Turkey and Kurdish laborers working-class movement as the task of organizing an indispensable element makes it especially important. This task cannot be fulfilled in the shadow of the Kurdish national movement, which includes both liberal and social democratic, nationalist and religious tendencies at the same time. Turkey communist movement to injustice, discrimination, racism, the struggle against militarism and imperialist bourgeoisie has the ability to experiment and completely severed from context. In this sense, the leftists in Turkey does not have a provision of this or that historical debt against alleged Kurdish political formation. The responsibility of the communist movement and only working people opposed Turkey.
TurkeyThe revolution will develop by combating the teeth with the imperialist bloc, which is embodied in the NATO alliance today, in terms of both the necessities of its historical roots and the tasks that the period it will rise in. This struggle will be based on the organization of the working people and will continue from politics to the ideological-cultural area. Again, even if this struggle will be opposed to imperialism as a whole, it will have a dominant anti-US character in all its stages. historical destruction caused by US imperialism in this region of Turkey does not trivialize the communist movement in general discourse. In addition, to avoid separating the struggle against imperialism and its leading elements from the class context, preferring one of the imperialist countries or blocks to another, moreover, it is an absolute necessity to be alert to the tendencies of our country's ruling class to launder both domestic and foreign policy practices. Turkey ignoring its effort to move up in the hierarchy of the bourgeoisie in the imperialist system can not execute the struggle against imperialism.
CAPin terms of workers and laborers to direct social liberation, organizations and claim to lead them is the product of the absolute confidence that the working class of Turkey have the resources and power to fulfill this historic responsibility. Today's priority is to make the working class visible in the political sphere with a revolutionary perspective, but also to turn the working people out of their defensive position and become an initiative-maker. major organizational transformation which launched in 2018 and followed by concrete steps together with Communist Party of Turkey taken by increasing the resistance of the working class in the process of the present crisis, establishing a link between the resistance and the socialist revolution target, with the goal of fighting the layout changes with the AKP government, our country against the nightmare he lived today in the conditions of capitalism egalitarian, fair, free, independent,
