Where is a Socialist Revolution most likely to take place currently?

[Debaser]

I'm mainly looking at Europe and the Americas when I ask the question, since the Arab world, where of course there are currently Revolutions taking place, has it's Revolutionary movements dominated by what is basically Liberalism.

In my opinion, I think Greece is most likely to see a Revolution. The current climate is almost ready I think for the workers to rise and depose the Capitalist regime. If Revolutionaries get the KKE ons ide then the Revolution I think ahs a good chance of taking place.

After Greece I might say Spain but after that I'm not really sure. Certainly others can offer a much better and in-depth analysis on the current Revolutionary climate in the world today.

'The world'.

Seems a bit of a crappy answer I'm afraid but the revolution really won't be like a game of Command and Conquer. Things will happen - somewhere, a demonstration against pensions reform will spark some assemblies, somewhere else a strike against wage cuts will lead to workers linking struggles together, somewhere else some university students are protesting about education cutbacks and linking up with others in different countries, somewhere else some government workers will be taking action against budget cuts, and all these processes will cross fertilize each other both inside their own countries and across national boundaries.

Some revolutionaries have the idea that this will almost certainly reach 'critical mass' (to borrow an expression) in Europe as it's here that the rising tide of militancy will have to confront and go beyond the national boundaries first, because European countries are tiny compared to most of the rest of the world. But even if one accepts this, the events that feed into the rising tide of militancy can come from anywhere.

Revolution isn't an event, it's a process already set in motion wherever capitalism exists. Furthermore, talking about revolution in terms of countries is to talk about revolution in fetishised terms - revolution is anti-fetishism.

Revolution is happening. It's not really a case of where and when.

This game is fun.

But yeah, as general strike said, revolution is not an event, nor a moment, nor a country-specific fetish, it is a process, and one that can only be analysed in the present as a process, and in the future (i.e. as a work of history) as a time-specific event (i.e. The Russian Revolution of 1917, analysed in the context of the previous 20 years of revolutionary fervour).

Atleast try to keep a couple of eyes on Greece, Nepal and the Arab world (especially Tunisia and Egypt).

The most promising prospects for some sort of revolutionary change are in these places.

How I wish that would be true :cool: I'd get the first plane back there
But seriously there isn't much to "foresee" atm nor is it easy ,though of course countries suffering from the crisis may steer into our direction (and avoid the far right).
