complicated ideas of Marxism. From basic principles to in-depth analysis of current

Marxist's "must read" list! Study guides
will be available for many of these shortly!
- Marxist Theory
A solid understanding of scientific socialism is vital in order to cut through
the propaganda of the ruling class and come to a class perspective and class solution for
the problems facing workers and youth today. This section deals with the major
aspects of Marxist theory: dialectical materialism, historical materialism, and
economics, and more!

- New Youth Magazine
New Youth is the magazine of Youth for International Socialism.
It is currently published bi-monthly and is available both online in in printed form. Each
issue is packed with news and analysis from around the world, theoretical and educational
material, and more - written by Y.F.I.S. members themselves!
- Flyers and Pamphlets
One way to spread the ideas of international socialism, and make your voice heard
is to print out the flyers and pamphlets available at this site. Make as many copies
as you can and hit the streets!
- News and Analysis
Keeping up with current events is just as important a part of Marxism as is
studying the history of the movement. We need to be aware of what is going on around
the world so we can intervene on behalf of the international working class and youth.
It is vital to maintain a clear class perspective when analyzing current events, as
the ruling class media has a definite perspective and quite obviously defends the
established order of things. Each issue of New
Youth is full of news and analysis from a labor/youth perspective, as is this
website. Also, be sure to check out the news and analysis archives
for any stories you may have missed! And be sure to visit out www.marxist.com for an in-depth look at the events
shaping our world.
