The recent death of Augusto Pinochet marks the passing of one of the 20 th century's most ruthless tyrants. In 1973 he launched a military coup against the democratically elected Chilean government led by Salvador Allende. Claiming that Chile was under threat from so called ‘communist subversives' his military death squads proceeded to massacre thousands of socialists and trade unionists, with tens of thousands more tortured. In 1974 Pinochet declared himself president and was to remain in power until 1990, with the full support of the United States and Britain .

Background

From 2003 onwards we have sought to develop Revolution as an international organisation. We have united around a common political programme, and developed an international leadership, we have also developed an orientation to the resistance to neo-liberalism and addressed that resistance with the call for a revolutionary youth international to lead and organise the struggle of youth.

REVOLUTION is an internationalist organisation. We believe that just as capitalism is an international system, so the struggle for socialism must be carries out internationally. We fight all expressions of national hatred and chauvinism.

Introduction

There is much at stake the international conference, not least because of the importance of the conjuncture in world politics that sees an increasing mobilisation of the masses in struggle while these movements are gripped by an immense crisis of leadership.
