[lbo-talk] Die Linke Poses the "System Question"

[duh-roo]

The party chief, Klaus Ernst, is quoted in the article as saying "we are
also the heirs of the communards" and he "acknowledged also Rosa Luxemburg
and Carlo Guiliani." It seems this appeal to the memory of the Commune
indicates a willingness by Die Linke to adopt, at least rhetorically, a more
explicitly revolutionary stance in their politics... as far as practical
implications beyond this I couldn't say. But even the rhetorical shift is a
major departure from the norm in contemporary politics, no?
