Demokratik Sosyalizm - 21. Yüzyıl Özgürlük İdeolojisi

"Insistence on socialism means insistence on being human."
-Abdullah Öcalan-

"Before publishing his book, Zeki Bayhan sent it to me from prison through Ragıp Zarakolu. Zeki Bayhan has been in prison for 16 years. Thank you, I send my greetings to him. He did a good reading, compiled it and made determinations for the future. This is an important thing... Marxism is not static, because It is a method that is tested and enriched by life. But it still continues to enrich its opposing stances. At the same time, it is a dialectical phenomenon.

Bayhan's book took me back to my own prison years, Sultanahmet Prison. Contrary to popular belief, there is no free time in prison. For the communists, of course. Reading, listening, thinking, discussing... these human abilities are perfected there. Commune life, on the other hand, emphasizes sharing and solidarity in every dimension. "I now think of Şefik Hüsnü's explanation of the changes in world politics in his seminars, or Reşat Fuat Baraner's interpretation of Marxist theory... A communist has always managed to turn imprisonment into an achievement."
