Remember Rosa Luxemberg
Antonis Karkagiannis & H. Kathimerini (in Greek) | February 3, 2009
Lenin’s revolution never succeeded and socialism was left undefined -- a mixture of bureaucracy and a police state -- as the ideals behind the revolution were suppressed. ++ The sacrifice of Rosa Luxemburg gained her immortality in history to remind us that democratic legitimacy lies with the people so that no revolution is meaningful unless it establishes democracy and the values which are linked to it: free press, general elections, and the right to freedom irrespective of privately held beliefs.
