Uma reflexão sobre as resoluções da CSP-Conlutas: uma via para o socialismo? (2012-2015)

Abstract

Recent literature and some statistical data show that social struggles in Brazil increased from the 2000s onwards. The intensification of the contradiction between capital and labor is evidenced; on the one hand, and, on the other hand, it raises the question of how the struggle between cause and effect in the capitalist mode of production has been directed. New organizations of the working class arose from the struggle, as is the case of CSP-Conlutas, which begins the overcoming of capitalism and proposes socialism as a new mode of production. We sought in the Congressional Resolutions (2012 and 2015) of this center a first attempt, although incipient, to identify how the struggle for overcoming the capitalist mode of production was directed; debated in the third chapter. For this, we discussed in the first chapter the emergence of working class defense organizations through the struggle, as well as their roles, and some rebuffs of the offensive of capital in these organizations and in the struggles of workers throughout the twentieth century. In chapter two, we briefly discuss the formation of the working class in Brazil from colonization to the present time, recovering some particular traits of our social formation and the working conditions and fragmentation inherent in the current stage of capitalism. Thus, we show that the CSP-Conlutas does not escape the rule of this context, being openly open to discussion for the possibility of its real protagonism in front of human emancipation.
