Should social movements support parliamentary parties? Do the social struggles of our time need a party? What are the risks of relying on a parliamentary strategy? Can anti-capitalist demands be realised through the ballot box? We want to take a critical look at these questions and discuss alternative possibilities for political organisation and power. With Robert Schlosser.

Whats up Budapest? Welcome to the repression

Location: Café Knallhart

Several anti-fascist activists are currently being searched for on the basis of Section 129, while others are already being detained in Hungary under inhumane conditions. In the case of Maja's extradition proceedings, the police even disregarded an order from the Federal Constitutional Court. The lecture will give an overview of the events of the last year in Germany, Italy and Hungary, how the complex was taken up by the media, what the comrades concerned are currently confronted with and what a left in solidarity can do now.
