November 24, 1928 at No. WORK 2 Fortnightly information and ideas that the Publishing Society Amauta published between November 1928 and September 1929, test broadcasts Mariátegui: Press doctrine Information and Press. This is a document of vital importance because, along with some details of the press, doctrinal or informative, provides lots of lights to the thesis "the first mass party and ideas of our entire republican history."
The auroral years experience Peru's socialism, the Marxist tradition affirms where to start in political work. Lenin, summarizing the experience of Marx - Engels said: newspaper is not just a propagandist and a collective agitator, but also a collective organizer. turn, JCM in 1923 said: "Communications are the nervous tissue of this humanity internationalized and solidarity" . That statement in the century of globalization of the economy has more reason. Since late last century, electronic communications confronts us with new scenario, the global scenario of class struggle. Scenario in which some questions should make us think: Can you resolve the first question (Where to begin?) In political work as did Lenin and Mariátegui in the last century? What results ephemeris leads to the main vehicle in political work? What is the main purpose of a political cult and how the class organized?
In the last century, China's cultural revolution generated a great debate limited geographically and theoretically. In this century, the whirl of events leaves almost no time to recover from previous events. "Communications are the nervous tissue" of this turmoil and social networks are the great battle scene between two worlds. In this battle, a world that refuses to succumb and another that tries to assert, as the operation is brain workers, Seseras of that "humanity and solidarity internationalized." Press
doctrine Information and Press says: "As information, especially in our case, can not be understood in the narrow sense chronicle of events, but mainly as a chronicle of ideas. "We are being proposed, which was standard life of Jose Carlos: The battle of ideas! The class struggle has priority as the operation the brain of the historical subject of social change: the working class. Engels on one of his latest reflections on balance of fifty years of struggle for socialism since the 1848 revolution says "If they have changed the conditions of war between nations, not least have changed the class struggle. The time of surprise attacks, of revolutions carried through by small conscious minorities at the head of unconscious masses, is past. Where it is a complete transformation of social organization have to intervene directly the masses, must have understood themselves and what it is, why give their blood and lives. This has taught us the history of the last fifty years. And for the masses to understand what to do, it takes a long and persevering work. This work is precisely what we are doing now, and with a success that adds to the desperation of our adversaries. " [1] To paraphrase Engels can say that they have changed the conditions of war between nations, not least have changed the class struggle in the XXI century.
not to extend too. We want to emphasize some parts of the trial of Jose Carlos Mariategui we copy below.
1. on the relationship between orthodoxy and heterodoxy: It is, therefore, a party committee. But neither is a heterogeneous committee.
2. Role of intellectuals in the party and social movement: doctrinal line is a function of party. Intellectuals as intellectuals, can not be associated to establish it. Your mission in this regard must be content with the provision of critical items, research and debate.
3. Front policy in intellectual work: Plus, if it has proved impossible, on this basis too extensive, a review of doctrine, not in the same case, a news magazine. And this is the character of "Monde", which presents information as a weekly literary, artistic, scientific, economic and social development. Journal of combat, newspaper affiliation, because it fights against all reactionary forces and trends, but not match because represents the cooperation of many writers and artists, caring only in opposition to the current regressive and less intensity and effectiveness, adherence to the efforts to create a new order.
4. Individual's role in the process: Barbusse is, by his background, his talent, for his work, a large vote of confidence in all revolutionary sectors. Mariátegui And we would say, is distinguished by its great ability to encourage and gather around the project-undeclared 1926 - socialist intellectual values \u200b\u200bof different creed and training but with the same social conscience.
5. Distinction between the party elite or party of the working class party's newspaper has an inevitable limitation: the audience and a cast of their own. For foreign readers with its policy, but generally has no interest controversial. This favors an industrial press release entitled, while information and therefore neutral, is actually the most effective and insidious propaganda of ideas and facts and the most irresponsible conservative mystifying ideas and revolutionary events.
6. The art is in the working class (workers and peasants) their vital support, so the leading edge is not if its representatives do not represent the social movement. Do not forget the maxim of the young Marx "The emancipation of the working class must be the work of the working class itself" .
Press Publishing Press Doctrine and José Carlos Mariategui information is part of a series of works that, in our view, will give greater insight to the understanding of the thesis "the first mass party and ideas of all our republican history. " We also invite connoisseurs and divers of libraries that make us with documents that contribute to the goal set in this section of TacnaComunitaria Blog.

DOCTRINE PRESS INFORMATION AND PRESS [1]
With its large weekly "Monde", Henri Barbusse resumed, in a sense, the experiment of "Clarté" first time. The steering committee of "Monde" is composed by Einstein, Gorki, Upton Sinclair, Manuel Ugarte, Unamuno, Leon Bazalgette, M. Morhardt and Leon Werth. There is therefore a party committee. But neither is a heterogeneous committee. All you are great writers who have problems today with a gesture more or less the same, similar, their differences in temperament and discipline. All are men of the Left, in the general sense of this classification, perhaps a bit abstract.
"Monde" would not have been possible without the test series which meant the existence of "Clarté" since its emergence as an international body of thought, until its transformation into a doctrine of extreme left magazine, "La Lutte de Classes ". The experiment Clarté, such as the International frustrated intelligence has proven impossible to obtain the cooperation of a very broad, and therefore highly nuanced leftist intellectuals, a well-concerted action doctrine. Unamuno could not subscribe, in many ways, the thought of Barbusse, a member of communism, just as Morhardt that it would be unwise to require strict adherence to the ideas of Upton Sinclair in "The Book of the Revolution." But Morhardt, which contributed to the process of the responsibilities of the Great War and vigorous documented testimony, this side is in close contact with colleagues of the Steering Committee, the wise parecidamente Einstein that if spent on other intellectual disciplines, not military in the ranges of Marxism, instead openly collaborating with the revolutionaries in the struggle against imperialism. The line is a function of party doctrine. Intellectuals as intellectuals, can not be associated to establish it. Your mission in this regard must be content with the contribution of critical items, research and debate.
But if it has proved impossible, on this basis too extensive, a review of doctrine, not in the same case, a news magazine. And this is the character of "Monde", which presents information as a weekly literary, artistic, scientific, economic and social development. Journal of combat, newspaper affiliation, because it fights against all reactionary forces and trends, but not match, because it represents the cooperation of many writers and artists, caring only in opposition to the current regressive, with lower intensity and effectiveness, adherence to the efforts to create a new order.
party's newspaper has an inevitable limitation: the audience and a cast of their own. For foreign readers with its policy, but generally has no interest controversial. This favors an industrial press release entitled, while information and therefore neutral, is actually the most effective and insidious propaganda of ideas and facts and the most irresponsible conservative mystifying ideas and revolutionary events. Absolute lack
ago, so, give life to newspapers for information, led to a wide audience, to assume defense of civility and order again, relentlessly denouncing the reaction and its methods and bringing together, in a methodical work, the more advanced writers and artists. These newspapers are susceptible to progressive adaptation to the industrial, administrative discretion if the criterion is imposed on teachers, and reformist deviation, if gradually absorbed the democratic tide, their resentments and anti-revolutionary bias. But, of all sorts, are a company need to undertake. Without worrying excessively about their risks.
The presence of Henri Barbusse, honest revolutionary, a great heart and intelligence, the direction of "Monde" is a guarantee that this magazine, however liberality allowed in the choice of his colleagues, knows how to maintain its initial line. Barbusse is, by his background, his talent, for his work, a large vote of confidence in all revolutionary sectors. The extreme left of her fellow Clarté ", under whose direction and responsibility is fulfilled the second phase of this experiment, reproaches her Insufficient Marxism. But this is an issue and tried, with unquestionable competence, Russian criticism. Barbusse intellectual formation, increases the value of its accession to the revolutionary cause, increases the scope of its break with social vice.
The survey "Monde" has opened on proletarian literature, prompted widespread debate internacional2, should the extent that from the outset has been reached, the non-sectarian, non-partisan in this newspaper. In this survey involved intellectual range that goes from André Breton and the revolution "surreal" to Paul Souday, a critic of the "Temps". "Monde" does not admit that proletarian literature is an empty word. It has its own points of view. But this will not stop wishing and cause a thorough discussion, consult the most varied opinions. Only then is it possible to a newspaper appeal to large segments of the public.
Hispano-America has a prestigious Representation on the board of Le Monde. " Thus the name of Manuel Ugarte as the great Don Miguel de Unamuno, who gives so uplifting and magnificent example of fidelity to the duties of intelligence, but found no sympathy and respect among the peoples of English, "Monde" is intended to achieve a fruitful eco awareness Hispanic continent.
The above considerations are relevant to the explanation of our experiment Amauta "and" work. "
Among us Amauta is increasingly geared towards the kind of magazine doctrine. "WORK" that a part is an extension the work of Amauta, on the other hand tend to kind of newspaper reporting. Its function is not the same. Since information, especially in our case, can not be understood in the narrow sense of chronicle of events, but mainly as a chronicle of ideas, "WORK" has respect for his audience, who want the widest possible-our newspaper, the biweekly for the moment, a weekly broadcast just so consent, is aimed at all manual and intellectual workers, "integral obligations illustration of the issues and contemporary movement, a magazine known doctrinal. This explains perfectly that unbonded to the current Romain Rolland acaudilla with such eminent moral and intellectual authority, we have published in the 'first issue of this journal the last chapter of Romain Rolland on Tolstoy and his work, and that our successive numbers, fulfilling our duty honestly popularization and information, perhaps accentuate this liberality, especially when it comes to opinions and topics that include: easy to host, in the mainstream press, despite their right to public attention.
