A Workers’ International Network meeting – Tasks of the Brazilian Left
Sunday 18th February 2024 at 4pm GMT, 5 pm in central Europe and Nigeria, 6 pm in Greece, Cyprus, South Africa and Namibia, 7pm in Turkey, 9 pm in Pakistan, 9-30 pm in India and Sri Lanka, midnight in the Philippines and Taiwan, 8 am in California and 11am in New York.
Events in Brazil have been closely followed by socialists and working-class activists over recent decades. The rise of the Workers’ Party and the election of Lula to government created great expectations. When these were disappointed, this led to the rise of Bolsonaro and the far right.
Now Lula and the Workers’ Party are back in office, this time in alliance with representatives of the ruling class. What can be expected of Lula’s new period in government? What will be the tasks facing the main “anti-capitalist left” party, PSOL? How can a return by Bolsonaro be prevented?
These questions are important not only to Brazil but to the whole Latin American continent, and to working-class activists and social movements internationally.
Marcio Musse – a Brazilian Marxist closely involved in Brazilian developments and in PSOL – will open the subject and review the tasks and the dilemmas facing the Brazilian left and the Marxists.

The Workers’ International Network is a worldwide network of labour activists fighting for socialism. We hold meetings every week bringing together activists from the front line of struggles worldwide to review collectively the lessons of their experiences. WIN meetings are recorded and posted online. If you have concerns about any personal security implications, once you have joined the meeting and before the recording has started you may wish to create an alternative ID and switch off your video.
Recordings of our WIN meetings over the last three years can all be viewed on our YouTube channel here and on WIN’s website here
