Hello

I'm actually a bit of a "beginner" not only to this site, but also to expressing my oppinions about like the revolutionary left and so on... :blink:
Maybe someone can give me some reading tips..? =/ I'm right now reading Che Guevara's diary from Bolivia... =/ hm.. anyway, I'm really interested in these ideas, i just need a bit more information;P hehe..
hope someone understands what i mean, and that i don't sound too crazy.. =P

By the way: someone else from sweden here?

hasta pronto compañeros ^_^

Welcome!

Some of my favourite reads are,
The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Fredrick Engels (http://marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1848/communist-manifesto/index.htm)
The Civil War in France by Karl Marx (http://marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1871/civil-war-france/index.htm)
The State and Revolution by Lenin (http://marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1917/staterev/index.htm)
Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism by Lenin (http://marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1916/imp-hsc/index.htm)
The Immediate Tasks of the Soviet Government (http://marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1918/mar/x03.htm)
Quotations of Mao Tse-Tung (http://marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/works/red-book/index.htm)

We have several members from Sweden I think, I do remember an anarcho-pacifist fellow from Sweden under the name "*****sbrew" being here for a while.

I wonder what happened to him.

Welcome Raggan.

I am also from Sweden, far more south than Jokkmokk though. ;)
Welcome. The Manifesto is a tip, you could also check out Leo Hubermans "Mans worldly goods" (Människans rikedomar), an easy read on economic history from a marxist perspective. http://www.socialist.nu/ is a swedish website with facts, quotes, questions & anwers etc regarding socialism. Serves well as a beginners guide. And also register an account at http://www.socialism.nu/ - a swedish socialist community, a lot of great threads that can be of use for you.

When I first read the thread I got bugged out by the name Raggan
Sounds kinda like that capitalistic parasite of a US president, Ronald Reagan

Oh well, welcome brother :)
