  • If we are being fr fr about a faq:

    Can socialism in one country occur in China without international revolution?

    It seems like to the ICP yes on the writings about America but with china being the manufacturing giant of the world of almost all major products it seems like more of the candidate but America could also work.

    ”As for the transformation of the social structure into socialism, which using an expression no less theoretically false than the others is called the construction of socialism, whereas it should be called the destruction of capitalism, it has always been considered both feasible and possible even in one country. But under two conditions, set out in crystal‑clear fashion by Marx and Lenin. Firstly: that the capitalism in the country concerned is fully developed; secondly: that the victorious proletariat in that country is cognisant of its role: as the bringer not of peace, but of war!”

    I don’t know how much I agree with the ICP here but I would love for someone else to weigh in I’m also highjacking your post btw.

    Well, kind of, but this quote already notes the implication of socialism in one country. Any successful communist revolution in one country will immediately find itself defacto at war with every other nation on earth, and the task of this new revolutionary force is to either export its revolution or else, isolated, it withers under the weight of counterrevolution in one way or another.

    Yeah to be clear I don’t believe socialism in one country would work in isolation that’s why I put the full quote.

    China is no longer the manufacturing giant of the world it used to be 10-20 years ago. Manufacturing didn't disappear but employment in manufacturing shrinks as production becomes more automated and the lowest-margin labor gets offshored again, this time from China to poorer countries like Bangladesh, Cambodia and Vietnam. In that sense China is already partially deindustrializing, just like earlier "capitalist cores" did

    it is possible but incredibly precarious and utterly relies on world revolution.

    If a revolution is successful in an isolated country, there could be instances of nascent socialism within its borders. Lenin indicates that there were small cases of socialist production in Russia during the first years after the revolution.

    I think what this article is trying to do is reiterate lenin's article On the Slogan for a United States of Europe :

    Uneven economic and political development is an absolute law of capitalism. Hence, the victory of socialism is possible first in several or even in one capitalist country alone. After expropriating the capitalists and organising their own socialist production, the victorious proletariat of that country will arise against the rest of the world—the capitalist world—attracting to its cause the oppressed classes of other countries, stirring uprisings in those countries against the capitalists, and in case of need using even armed force against the exploiting classes and their states.

    I don't see anything contradictory to internationalism
