Participatory Action Research of the Actuality of “Manifesto of the Communist Party”’s 10 Points Revolutionary Action Program for Conquering Self-Managing Democracy

170 years after the first edition of the Manifesto of the Communist Party, this paper proposes to interested colleagues the organization of the Participatory Action Research (PAR) of the actuality of the Manifesto of the Communist party’s 10 points revolutionary action program for uplifting proletariat into a ruling class and conquering simultaneously political, economic and cultural democracy or self-management, on the track of lessons drawn from the 1871 Paris commune experience for accomplishing classless society in the second decade of the 21^st century. PAR namely enables overcoming of the class division of labor between active small-bourgeois subjects, passively responding working class objects and minority of large bourgeois research financiers.

Proposed PAR should explore what is the current state of realization of the 10 points revolutionary action program in the field of capitalist property and labor legislation, industrial and agricultural, credit and fiscal policy of state administration as well as in the domain of communication, transportation and education means, proposed by the MCP authors as necessary for carrying out of the structural transformation of the entire capitalist mode of production. Paper recalls that the authors of the MCP proclaimed this program themselves in later editions of the MCP to be outdated and variable depending on concrete conditions of class struggle in particular countries.

The paper identifies as the main challenge to organization of the PAR on conquering simultaneously political, economic and cultural democracy or self-management, the scaling up of the participatory action research as a form of referendum of the great majority of wage laborers on the desirable organization of egalitarian, peaceful and just social production relationships through the implementation of contemporary production forces of IT technology put under the control of freely associated producers and consumers so that the freedom of each individual is the condition for the freedom of all.
