Critique of Nationalism


Racism and nationalism divide the workers of the world, cause discrimination and prejudice, and have created conflict and war.
Needless to say, the disunion and civil wars in Yugoslavia and racism and nationalism are tightly bound to the interests of the bourgeoisie (i.e. capital). This clouds the class consciousness of the workers, distorts the struggle against the rule of capital.

"Workers have no homeland." We appeal for the unity of the workers throughout the world, and fight racism and nationalism from this international viewpoint.
