Description

The seminar on Contemporary World Situation and the Validity of Marxism acquired great importance both nationally and internationally. Its deliberations drew the attention of the communists world wide. The seminar has in effect fulfilled the yearning of communists for a discussion on the validity of Marxism in the background of the setbacks suffered by socialism with the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the collapse of the socialist regimes in the east European countries.

It was precisely in the background of the developments during the last few years, and the massive propaganda blitzkrieg launched by imperialism and its spokesmen that the holding of such a seminar was proposed. The imperialist propaganda offensive sought to depict that socialism is dead, communism has no future and that capitalism is the last stage in the evolution of human society. Its paid scribes sought to negate the history of the last 150 years, that had seen the discoveries of Marx shedding a new light on philosophy, political economy and the social sciences. The study and works on Marx that brought a hitherto unknown approach on understanding and comprehending contemporary developments, were sought to be challenged.
