The Socialism conference is back! Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) and key left parties from Southeast Asia and Australia will be hosting their bi-ennial International conference virtually, which will be held over two weekends, 27-28 Nov & 4-5 Dec 2021. This conference acts as an important platform to analyze international politics, imperialism, capitalism, worker struggles, climate change, gender, and much more from a socialist perspective.
PSM made a breakthrough in Malaysian politics at a period when any discussion of Socialism was considered taboo. There had been no other outlets publicly discussing left political ideas since the successful crackdown on left progressive organizations in the 1960s and 1970s. The first Socialism Conference, Socialism 2005 reintroduced left-wing political concepts into mainstream politics. Socialism Malaysia has piqued the attention of left-wing groups and individuals searching for political alternatives in Asia since its start in 2005.
For the first time, this year’s Socialism Conference is jointly organised by Socialist Workers Thailand, Partido Lakas ng Masa (PLM) Philippines, Socialist Alliance Australia, Partai Rakyat Pekerja (PRP) Indonesia and Kesatuan Perjuangan Rakyat (KPR) Indonesia.
This year’s Socialism 2021 is a not-to-be-missed conference as it will include a variety of prominent international speakers discussing various topics from a socialist viewpoint and why it offers a legitimate alternative to today’s neoliberal capitalism.
Socialism 2021 will take place virtually through Zoom and is open for registration now. Please check out our event page at https://socialismconf.org/ for more details.
