Social struggle and violence

Seeking the new image of the left wing movement, the authors argue that – in contrast to the traditions – the acceptance of violence has to be excluded from it. They list the onthological elements of violence and the main social mechanisms that produce violence. They establish a relationship between the theory of revolutionary violence and the idealisation of the working class and finally discuss the possibility of linking the absence of violence and a revolutionary attitude towards society.
