150 Years after the fall of the Paris Commune, the possibility of social revolution seems to have disappeared. The end of the story, proclaimed by liberals and reactionaries and largely internalized by the left, leaves no options open to the left of the existing. While right-wing projects are on the advance worldwide and have nothing to fear from the democrats of all countries, It seems that left social plans beyond the status quo can no longer expect any possibility of realization. To the left of the Social Democrats there is only Stalin, Liberals are not the only ones to have this pill, but also swallowed many leftists and work diligently to defame and discredit emancipatory ideas of society. Real is no longer a long time, who subscribes to realism in the form of an insight into the revolution as a necessity, but who is ready for it, to bury every left legacy in order to participate in power projects “to participate critically”, So to support them.
The Paris Commune is not just a symbolic occasion, to track down communist promises of emancipation. She's not just one 2,5 monthly metropolitan project 150 years, in which Proudhonists and Blanquists wrangled about it, who represents the better ruling faction. She is historical evidence, that a society beyond state and capital is possible, that a council democracy, as damaged and inadequate as it may have been, was able to do so in its incipient forms, manage life in a big city. That evening we want to record the trail, talk about revolutions and their failure, about classes and the possibility of emancipation from the rule of man over man.
