ESPAÑA:UN PARTIDO COMUNISTA DE ESPAÑA VANGUARDIA DE LA CLASE OBRERA CON UNA COMUNICACIÓN DE VANGUARDIA

Por: Javier Parra

La comunicación (interna y externa) ha sido uno de los talones de Aquiles del Partido Comunista durante las últimas décadas. Además, teniendo en cuenta que la comunicación es una herramienta fundamental para la organización interna y para la acción política externa, no debe sorprendernos el impacto negativo sobre la organización que han tenido para nosotros las carencias que hemos tenido en el ámbito de la comunicación.

Debemos distinguir además las tareas a desarrollar en los distintos aspectos comunicativos. Por un lado en lo referido a la comunicación interna – la que contribuye a dinamizar el debate y la información, a mejorar la democracia interna y a agilizar la construcción de organización -, por otro lado la referida a la comunicación externa desde los medios propios del Partido, y también la política respecto a los grandes medios de comunicación de masas.

De manera transversal a estas – y desarrollada en otro apartado – estaría la política cultural del Partido, teniendo en cuenta que la cultura en todas sus formas es una vía de difusión de ideas y valores entre las masas.

Es necesario tener muy en cuenta estos tres aspectos fundamentales de la comunicación para afrontar con éxito la tareas de un Partido Comunista con la aspiración de volver a convertirse en vanguardia.

SWAZILAND: THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF SWAZILAND IS CALLING SOLIDARITY FOR TO DROP ALL CHARGES AGAINST PEACEFUL PICKETERS

The Communist Party of Swaziland is calling for increased solidarity from progressive forces inside and outside Swaziland in response to the arrest of two liberation movement activists for their role in a picket by public sector unions.

The two are Mcolisi Ngcamphalala, a CPS Central Committee member and member of the Swaziland National Association of Teachers (SNAT) together with Mbongwa Dlamini, Manzini Regional Chairperson of teachers union, SNAT. They were charged with obstruction by taking part in a picket to demand the release of a government report on public sector pay reviews.

In typically disproportionate style, the regime swooped on the two men at their homes in the evening of Thursday 4 February 2016, deploying officers from the serious crimes unit (also referred to as the anti terrorism squad).  They were then held in custody and before being granted bail of E1000 each pending their trial.

The picket, which is being held regularly every Wednesday to protest the secrecy of government pay policy for public sector workers, is part of a defiance campaign by public servants. They are banned from organising protest demonstrations and are resorting to more flexible and small-scale ways of highlighting their demands, such as pickets. Ngcamphalala and Dlamini’s offense was to have blocked the road where the picket was held, for which an arrest warrant was subsequently issued.

The CPS stresses that the extreme reaction to the picket shows the Mswati regime’s resolve to crack down on pro-democracy voices within the public sector, and in particular to target high profile left activists, such as Ngcamphalala and Dlamini.RI

This comes at a time when Mswati is brown-nosing the EU, Commonwealth and other sections of the international “community” with hints of democratic reform in return for their moneyed and political support to keep the distinctly anti-democratic autocracy in clover for the foreseeable future.

The CPS urges all supporters of Swaziland’s pro-democracy movement to send messages to protest to Swazi diplomatic missions and their own governments about the stifling of protest and opposition in our country, and to demand that Ngcamphalala and Dlamini have all charges against them dropped.
