Ukraine: Students march against introduction of Education fees By Tom Rollings Students in Ukraine are beginning to mobilise against the attack waged by the government on education.

ESPAÑOL Crecen las huelgas en Francia – ¡Hay que paralizar el país para detener la "reforma" de las pensiones! By Jorge Martín El sábado, 16 de octubre, más de 3 millones de personas tomaron las calles de Francia en cientos de manifestaciones en las ciudades y pueblos de todo el país en la última jornada nacional de lucha contra la contrarreforma propuesta al sistema de jubilaciones. El número fue de una magnitud similar al 2 de octubre, la última vez que los sindicatos convocaron a una jornada de lucha en un día sábado, pero el movimiento, sin duda, se ha desarrollado aún más. Las manifestaciones fueron otra demostración de fuerza de este movimiento que ha durado meses y ha visto 5 jornadas nacionales de lucha desde el final de las vacaciones de verano.  OTHER LANGUAGES Engels Tentang Bakunin (Surat kepada Theodor Cuno, 24 Januari 1872) By Friedrich Engels Indonesian translation of Engels on Bakunin (Letter to Theodore Cuno, January 24, 1872) Die Krise des Kapitalismus ist in ein neues Stadium eingetreten (Teil II) By Alan Woods Im zweiten Teil seiner Abhandlung betrachtet Alan Woods die erschreckende wirtschaftliche Situation, der die EU gegenübersteht.
