| description | While political science has probed the ideological, political, economic, and even psychological motivations behind the drive to war, socialist theory has made a unique contribution by highlighting the relationship between the development of capitalism and war.There is a long and rich tradition of the Left’s opposition to militarism that dates back to the International Working Men’s Association. It is an excellent resource for understanding the origins of war under capitalism and helping leftists maintain our clear opposition to it.In this article, the author examines the position of all the main currents (socialist, social-democratic, communist, anarchist, feminist) and intellectuals (Engels, Kropotkin, Malatesta, Jaurès, Luxemburg, Lenin, Mao, Khrushchev) of the left on the war and its different declinations (“war of defense”, “just war”, “revolutionary war”). |

It is an excellent resource for understanding the origins of war under capitalism and helping leftists maintain our clear opposition to it.In this article, the author examines the position of all the main currents (socialist, social-democratic, communist, anarchist, feminist) and intellectuals (Engels, Kropotkin, Malatesta, Jaurès, Luxemburg, Lenin, Mao, Khrushchev) of the left on the war and its different declinations (“war of defense”, “just war”, “revolutionary war”). Enquanto a ciência política investigou os aspectos ideológicos, políticos, econômicos e até as motivações psicológicas que conduzem à guerra, a teoria socialista forneceu uma contribuição única ao destacar a relação entre o desenvolvimento do capitalismo e a guerra.Há uma longa e rica tradição na esquerda de oposição ao militarismo que remonta à Associação Internacional dos Trabalhadores. Trata-se de um excelente recurso para entender as origens da guerra sob o capitalismo e ajudar as pessoas de esquerda a manter nossa clara oposição a ela.Neste artigo, o autor examina a posição de todas as principais correntes (socialistas, social-democratas, comunistas, anarquistas, feministas) e intelectuais (Engels, Kropotkin, Malatesta, Jaurès, Luxemburgo, Lênin, Mao, Khrushchev) da esquerda sobre a guerra e suas diferentes formulações (“guerra de defesa”, “guerra justa”, “guerra revolucionária”).
