On the loss of the workers' party:

1. The modern meme that posits that the old ways don't work or don't apply......

to struggle in 2015 is shown to be false by this. Change a couple of things and this could have been written about any of the revolutions that have happened over the last few years. SYRIZA and Podemos, although somewhat progressive, fall into the category of trying to find some sort of new methods to fight the class struggle, when the capitalists are using what works, which is class struggle analysis and what benefits their class. If we DON'T use the same type of analysis to fight for our class, we will lose.

The details might change, but the overall class struggle remains as it was when this was written. There is nothing new under the sun in this sphere.
