Marxism 47 (Communism)

 Some people go on making declarations of the end of communism like Fukuyama's declaration of the "End of History". Some posted that Communism is a dead ideology. To that --


You still get unceasing fits of the word itself!!! Communism is not an ideology but a future historic mode of production (MoP) like capitalism. As a mode of production capitalism replaced feudalism and shall be replaced by communism, a classless and stateless society, in which any exploitations humans by humans would be unnecessary and shall be made impossible. That shall be a society of human emancipation, in which no one shall be condemned to do alienated labour. Every one shall realize his creative potentialities and contribute to the process of social production according to his/her capacities and receive share from the social produce according to his/her needs. The transition period from feudal Mop to capitalist Mop lasted for couple of centuries in Europe. In India transition from the Indian version of feudalism, the Vanashram feudalism, which Marx defined as Asiatic Mode of Production is still in complete and has joined hands with the existing neo-liberal, imperialist global capital, as its tool. But anything that exists is destined to end and Asiatic MoP with its ideological weapon of colonial construct, communalism, is no exception. Now the need to social revolution against the Asiatic MoP and economic revolution against capitalist MoP has to be dialectically united for the human emancipation, the process has already begun with the slogan of Jay Bhim-Lal Salam. To many in the world a classless-stateless society seems an utopia. Anything, till that happens seems utopia. In my childhood, in my village an untouchable, Dalit's becoming a Professor would have been an utopia, but is a reality now. In the USA, before Barack Obama's election as President, the idea of an Afro American's becoming President would have been an Utopia. For radical changes, radicalization of social condition is needed, for which the precondition is disillusionment from the false consciousness of the identities based on caste (casteism) and religion (communalism).
