I salute the steadfastness of the Palestinian resistance and strongly protest against the Zionist aggression and the so-called peace that U.S. imperialism seeks to impose on the people of Palestine. I consider it a duty to begin with this statement.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Let us also send our greetings and wishes for victory to socialist Cuba, which continues to resist the blockade on behalf of all of us.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Today, I would like to reflect on why we \u2014 those of us who believe another world is possible \u2014 have fallen short in the realm of ideological struggle. I will attempt to offer some answers to this pressing question.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And I would like to begin by playing the role of the devil\u2019s advocate. Perhaps our problems began with the slogan \u201cAnother world is possible.\u201d In one sense, it is a perfect slogan \u2014 and it remains so today. Yet as everyone began to assign their own meanings to what that \u201cother world\u201d should be, the very notion itself began to lose clarity. For instance, another world is not merely a better world. Despite all that nature offers us, and despite the vast accumulation of human knowledge and experience, the world we live in today is not a good one. It is a terrible world, and we seek to free ourselves from this unjust world.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Another world is indeed possible, and that \u201cother world\u201d can be defined by no concept more fitting than equality.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To put it more concretely, another world is one in which classes and exploitation have been abolished. The challenges we face in reaching this goal do not lessen its urgency or its relevance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What weakens the idea of another world today is the disappearance of the only point of reference that can define and make such a world possible. I will not dwell on the reasons for this \u2014 it is a complex issue and requires extensive discussion. Yet there is a reason why I begin my speech from here.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If we, who struggle against exploitation, all forms of inequality, imperialism, racism, and militarism, are not effective enough \u2014 if we cannot break through the ideological and cultural siege of multinational monopolies \u2014 one of the reasons is that what we actually want has become unintelligible. For the billions of people who suffer and are discontent in today\u2019s unjust world to take an interest in the world we aspire to, amid the overwhelming bombardment of data, we must possess a clear and disciplined sense of purpose.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is evident that all values that are vital to us \u2014 such as freedom, peace, progress, and independence \u2014 have today lost much of their meaning and credibility within strategies that fail to openly question the mechanisms of exploitation that dominate most of the world. One of the most serious consequences of defending these values while accepting those very mechanisms of exploitation \u2014 or of believing that such values could weaken them from within \u2014 is the adoption of the ideological tools and language of the imperialist system itself. This very set of tools and language entirely excludes the possibility of such a world itself.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We are holding this meeting as part of a festival organized in honor of the proud legacy of two revolutionary and communist publications. Since the 19th century, despite repression and all kinds of adversity, the field of publishing has continued to find ways to amplify the independent voice of the oppressed classes, both politically and ideologically. Today, however, our production aimed at interpreting and transforming the world \u2014 in journalism, mass communication, and even in the communicative practices required by revolutionary struggle \u2014 has become almost entirely dependent. Although this dependency is partly linked to material conditions and the level of technological development, it ultimately arises from a conviction \u2014 one that has spread even within our own ranks \u2014 that today\u2019s world cannot be changed in essence. It may seem almost natural that capitalism, as a system that permeates everything and turns all things into commodities, has also conquered the field of communication. Yet building our own tools and language in the information wars \u2014 and thereby creating an independent space \u2014 is possible only through a strategy that directly confronts invasive capital.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>An alternative that remains confined within a communication sphere entirely shaped and controlled by multinational monopolies cannot truly represent \u201canother world.\u201d When we fail to root this alternative in a concrete, material foundation, we inevitably become trapped within an informational and communicative environment dictated by imperialism. But is this outcome truly inevitable? Does the need to adapt to technological developments necessarily condemn us to such a climate?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We must answer this question with an unequivocal no.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The first condition for resisting the absolute hegemony of imperialism in the realm of information and communication is to reject its own criteria of success. Just as a revolutionary movement confined to the parliamentary arena suffocates when it cannot raise its head beyond the \u201cvote count,\u201d so too do those who measure today\u2019s media solely by quantitative indicators of consumption \u2014 by the flow and volume of information \u2014 render themselves incapable, ideologically, of creating a genuine counterpole. This does not mean, of course, that such media platforms should be abandoned altogether. It is possible to open cracks within them, to appropriate and repurpose these platforms for the benefit of humanity \u2014 but only according to our own principles.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It may now be necessary to move beyond abstraction and to formulate, in concrete terms, the practical steps that can be taken.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To begin with, it must be emphasized that it is impossible to create any meaningful resistance against the ideological domination of the imperialist-capitalist system by seeking solutions within that very system. The claim that \u201cwe are too weak to develop alternatives outside the system\u201d is unfounded; by the same logic, one could just as easily argue that we are too weak to build resistance even from within the system itself.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The exploiting classes and imperialism have shaped the fields of information and communication not only to facilitate lies and distortions, but also to undermine the values that uplift and advance humanity, thereby accelerating decay. This structure is not, and can never be, neutral. Therefore, the assertion that \u201cany ideology can make use of this structure in its own way\u201d must be treated with caution.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One of the main consequences of the Left\u2019s adoption of the system\u2019s tools and language\u2014both politically and ideologically\u2014has been its inability to mount an ethical challenge at the moments when it was most urgently needed. Today, when the impoverished masses look to the Left, they do not see a force grounded in truth, free from pragmatism and image fetishism, and rooted in principles and advanced moral values. This is a profoundly serious problem. One of the Left\u2019s foremost tasks must therefore be to reestablish an advanced ethical framework within its ranks. In this regard, the vast accumulation of knowledge and principles developed in Cuba even before the revolution stands as a powerful example.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>While we must avoid archaic and completely isolating approaches\u2014such as rejecting social media and the fully digitalized media controlled by multinational corporations\u2014it is essential to preserve and revitalize print publications, theaters, cinemas, concert halls, and all forms of face-to-face communication. These are indispensable for the development of human beings as social creatures. Persistent and creative efforts must be devoted to this task. The cost of surrendering to today\u2019s dominant media in the name of modernity is immense.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>More importantly, collective efforts must be directed toward using the technological possibilities created by humanity\u2019s combined manual and intellectual labor in ways fundamentally different from those of capitalism. A different set of tools and a different language are indeed possible, and when international resources are pooled, tangible progress can be achieved step by step. To assume that modest initiatives and incremental advances cannot yield results\u2014simply because multinational corporations have reached an advanced level\u2014is akin to believing that the oppressed are powerless before massive armies armed with weapons of mass destruction, tanks, and aircraft.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Just as books, newspapers, and magazines were banned in the past, today a handful of monopolies impose censorship on alternative viewpoints through arbitrary means. While striving to create freer platforms of our own, we must simultaneously build a collective international resistance to these oppressive measures. When criticism and exposure, legal action, and boycotts are well organized, they not only produce tangible results but also lend greater legitimacy to alternative media channels.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In light of all these considerations, I would like to emphasize that the Communist Party of Turkey (TKP) will continue to fulfill its responsibilities with determination and creativity, within the limits of its modest means.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A world worth living in is possible \u2014 and in that world, there is no place for exploiting classes. The future of humanity is communism.<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p><b>Lo \u201cdiferencial\u201d en la informaci\u00f3n y la comunicaci\u00f3n para un mundo \u201cdiferente\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b><i>Kemal Okuyan, <\/i><\/b><i>Secretario General del Partido Comunista de Turquia (TKP)<\/i><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Queridos amigos, camaradas,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ante todo, comparto el sufrimiento del pueblo palestino, saludo la resistencia palestina y considero mi deber comenzar protestando contra la agresi\u00f3n sionista y la supuesta paz que el imperialismo estadounidense intenta imponer a los palestinos.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Y, por supuesto, extendamos tambi\u00e9n nuestros saludos y deseos de victoria a la Cuba socialista, que resiste el bloqueo en nombre de todos nosotros.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hoy intentar\u00e9 ofrecer algunas respuestas a la pregunta de por qu\u00e9 quienes deseamos un mundo diferente somos incapaces de luchar ideol\u00f3gicamente.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Quisiera empezar haciendo de abogado del diablo. Quiz\u00e1 nuestros problemas comenzaron con la consigna \u201cotro mundo es posible\u201d. Desde una perspectiva, es un lema magn\u00edfico. Todav\u00eda lo es. Sin embargo, cuando cada cual empez\u00f3 a darle un significado propio a ese \u201cotro mundo\u201d, lo que era ese otro mundo se volvi\u00f3 incierto. Por ejemplo: otro mundo no significa necesariamente un mundo mejor. Porque el nuestro, a pesar de todo lo que la naturaleza nos brinda y de todo el acervo de la humanidad, no es un buen mundo. Vivimos en un mundo malo, muy malo, un mundo terrible, y queremos librarnos de \u00e9l. Otro mundo es posible, y a ese otro mundo no lo define ning\u00fan concepto, ninguna palabra fuera de la igualdad.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Si lo concretamos a\u00fan m\u00e1s: ese otro mundo es un mundo en el que las clases y la explotaci\u00f3n hayan desaparecido. Las dificultades para alcanzar este objetivo no eliminan su urgencia y actualidad.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hoy lo que debilita la idea de otro mundo es la p\u00e9rdida del \u00fanico punto de referencia capaz de definirlo y hacerlo posible. No entrar\u00e9 en las razones; es un asunto complejo y que debe discutirse en profundidad. Pero tengo un motivo para empezar mi intervenci\u00f3n desde aqu\u00ed. Si hoy, quienes luchamos contra la explotaci\u00f3n, toda forma de desigualdad, el imperialismo, el racismo, el militarismo, no somos suficientemente eficaces y no logramos romper el cerco ideol\u00f3gico y cultural de los monopolios transnacionales, una de las razones es que lo que nosotros queremos se ha vuelto ininteligible. Entre el bombardeo de datos al que est\u00e1n expuestos miles de millones de personas da\u00f1adas y descontentas con este mundo malo, s\u00f3lo podremos despertar inter\u00e9s hacia ese otro mundo que planteamos si tenemos una disciplina de \u201cobjetivo\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Es evidente que valores vitales para nosotros como la libertad, la paz, el progreso o la independencia han perdido hoy gran parte de su fuerza y credibilidad dentro de estrategias que no cuestionan de manera abierta los mecanismos de explotaci\u00f3n que dominan gran parte del mundo. Defender esos valores aceptando dichos mecanismos de explotaci\u00f3n, con la expectativa de que desde dentro puedan debilitarse, trae consigo un problema grav\u00edsimo: asumir el conjunto de herramientas y el lenguaje del sistema imperialista en la lucha ideol\u00f3gica. Ese conjunto de herramientas y ese lenguaje no otorgan ninguna ventaja a la idea de que otro mundo es posible; al contrario, la excluyen por completo.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Estamos celebrando este encuentro en el marco de un festival organizado en honor a los a\u00f1os dignos que deja tras de s\u00ed dos publicaciones revolucionarias y comunistas. Desde el siglo XIX, en el \u00e1mbito editorial, a pesar de todas las presiones y carencias, se hall\u00f3 la forma de elevar la voz independiente de las clases oprimidas en el terreno pol\u00edtico e ideol\u00f3gico. Hoy, sin embargo, la producci\u00f3n que realizamos para interpretar y transformar el mundo \u2014en el periodismo, en la comunicaci\u00f3n de masas e incluso en la comunicaci\u00f3n que requiere la propia lucha revolucionaria\u2014 se encuentra casi totalmente dependiente. Esto, aunque en parte tenga relaci\u00f3n con los recursos materiales y el nivel alcanzado por el desarrollo tecnol\u00f3gico, en el fondo est\u00e1 estrechamente ligado a la idea, instalada tambi\u00e9n en nuestras filas, de que el mundo actual no se puede cambiar en esencia.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Que el capitalismo, como sistema que lo mercantiliza todo, haya invadido por completo el \u00e1mbito de la comunicaci\u00f3n puede parecer normal hasta cierto punto. Pero construir un conjunto de herramientas y un lenguaje propios, y conquistar un espacio independiente en las guerras de la informaci\u00f3n, s\u00f3lo es posible con una estrategia que se plante frente al capital invasor.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Una alternativa atrapada en un espacio de comunicaci\u00f3n enteramente moldeado y controlado por los monopolios transnacionales no es alternativa de un mundo diferente. O, dicho de otra forma, al no trasladar la alternativa de otro mundo a un terreno real, terminamos confinados al clima de informaci\u00f3n y comunicaci\u00f3n impuesto por el imperialismo.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfEs esto realmente inevitable? \u00bfLa necesidad de seguir el ritmo de los desarrollos tecnol\u00f3gicos nos condena de manera inevitable a ese clima?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A esta pregunta debemos responder con un no rotundo.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>La primera condici\u00f3n para luchar contra la hegemon\u00eda absoluta que el imperialismo ha establecido en el campo de la informaci\u00f3n y la comunicaci\u00f3n es rechazar los criterios de \u00e9xito de esa hegemon\u00eda.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As\u00ed como una lucha revolucionaria encerrada en el \u00e1mbito parlamentario se queda sin aliento porque no logra levantar la cabeza del \u201cconteo de votos\u201d, quienes aceptan el h\u00e1bito de evaluar la informaci\u00f3n y su flujo \u00fanicamente en t\u00e9rminos cuantitativos \u2014propios del consumo\u2014, tal como hacen hoy los medios, no pueden crear un contrapolo ideol\u00f3gico.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>No propongo en absoluto abandonar esas plataformas. Es posible abrir grietas en ellas, utilizarlas en beneficio de la humanidad. Pero bajo nuestras propias reglas\u2026<br \/>\nCreo que ya es hora de dejar de hablar en abstracto y empezar a compartir, aunque sea brevemente, algunas ideas concretas sobre lo que se puede hacer:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Reitero: frente al cerco ideol\u00f3gico del sistema imperialista-capitalista, lo primero que debemos escribir en nuestra lista es que no se puede generar resistencia produciendo soluciones dentro del propio sistema. \u201cSomos demasiado d\u00e9biles para crear opciones fuera del sistema\u201d no es un argumento; con esa l\u00f3gica tambi\u00e9n se podr\u00eda decir que somos demasiado d\u00e9biles para generar resistencia con una perspectiva interna al sistema.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Las clases explotadoras y el imperialismo dise\u00f1aron el \u00e1mbito de la informaci\u00f3n y la comunicaci\u00f3n no s\u00f3lo para la mentira y la manipulaci\u00f3n, sino tambi\u00e9n con un enfoque que destruye valores capaces de engrandecer y desarrollar al ser humano, acelerando la descomposici\u00f3n. Esa construcci\u00f3n no es neutra, nunca puede serlo. Por lo tanto, la tesis de que \u201ccada ideolog\u00eda puede utilizar esta estructura a su manera\u201d debe tomarse con cautela.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Uno de los costes m\u00e1s graves de que la izquierda acepte el lenguaje y las herramientas del sistema, tanto en lo pol\u00edtico como en lo ideol\u00f3gico, ha sido no poder protagonizar un desaf\u00edo \u00e9tico precisamente en el momento en que m\u00e1s se necesitaba. Hoy, cuando las masas pobres miran hacia una \u201copci\u00f3n de izquierda\u201d, no ven una fuerza libre de mentiras, pragmatismo y fetichismo de la imagen, apoyada en principios y valores morales elevados. Este es un problema muy serio. Una de las primeras tareas es luchar para que una \u00e9tica avanzada sea hegem\u00f3nica dentro de la izquierda. En este sentido, el extraordinario acervo creado en Cuba desde antes de la Revoluci\u00f3n debe ser un ejemplo.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Debemos alejarnos tambi\u00e9n de aquellas posturas que, basadas en el rechazo de las redes sociales dominadas por los monopolios transnacionales y de los medios digitalizados en su conjunto, no dar\u00e1n otro resultado que un arca\u00edsmo est\u00e9ril y un aislamiento absoluto. Pero al mismo tiempo, preservar y renovar las publicaciones impresas, los teatros, cines, salas de conciertos y todas las formas de comunicaci\u00f3n basadas en el contacto directo es condici\u00f3n indispensable para el desarrollo del ser humano como ser social. En esta direcci\u00f3n se deben impulsar trabajos persistentes y creativos. Entregarse a los canales actuales en nombre de la modernidad acarrea un alto costo.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>M\u00e1s importante a\u00fan: es necesario hacer un esfuerzo com\u00fan para utilizar las posibilidades tecnol\u00f3gicas \u2014fruto del acervo humano y de la actividad creadora del trabajo manual e intelectual\u2014 de una manera muy distinta a la del capitalismo. S\u00ed, es posible un conjunto de herramientas distinto y un lenguaje distinto, y cuando se combinen las posibilidades en el \u00e1mbito internacional, se comenzar\u00e1n a obtener resultados paso a paso. Pensar que los modestos esfuerzos no dar\u00e1n frutos, al mirar el nivel alcanzado por los monopolios transnacionales, no es diferente de pensar que los oprimidos est\u00e1n condenados a la impotencia frente a los ej\u00e9rcitos gigantes con armas de destrucci\u00f3n masiva, tanques y aviones.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As\u00ed como en el pasado se prohib\u00edan libros, peri\u00f3dicos, revistas, hoy un pu\u00f1ado de monopolios censura, de manera arbitraria y con diversos m\u00e9todos, a las ideas disidentes. Mientras trabajamos por crear espacios m\u00e1s \u201clibres\u201d y propios, al mismo tiempo debemos conformar una resistencia colectiva a nivel internacional frente a estas medidas opresivas. El criticismo, la denuncia p\u00fablica, los procesos jur\u00eddicos, el boicot, cuando se organizan bien, no s\u00f3lo dan resultados, sino que adem\u00e1s proporcionan gran legitimidad a los espacios alternativos.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>En l\u00ednea con todo lo expuesto, quiero recordar que el TKP cumplir\u00e1 con lo que le corresponde, dentro de sus modestos recursos, pero con determinaci\u00f3n y creatividad.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Un mundo digno de ser vivido es posible, y en ese mundo no hay lugar para las clases explotadoras.
