Part of the intention of this article is to combat the kind of senseless anti-Americanism
that one encounters all too frequently in left circles. Marxists are
internationalists and do not take up a negative stance in relation to the people

and exploitation. What we oppose is not Americans, but American capitalism and
American imperialism. The American people and above all the American working class have a great
revolutionary tradition. On the basis of great historical events they are
destined to rediscover these traditions and to stand once more in the front line
of the revolution, as they did in 1776 and 1860. The future of the entire world
depends ultimately on this perspective. And although today it may seem very far
off, it is not so incredible as one might think.
