Work Congress
The growth trend in strike activity in the past two years, is not questioned even by analysts FNPR. Moreover, according to internal statistics of the largest trade union center in the Russian labor disputes simply multiply exponentially. In all of these workers' protest rallies there, surprisingly, always the same demands: higher wages, better working conditions, collective bargaining, trade union recognition.
Indeed, the growth of the strike movement coincides with the appearance of a huge number of trade-union organizations, and grow in a largely "free" trade unions (not included in the structure of the FNPR). Clearly, the biggest trade union center of Russia - it is also the most "yellow", the most bureaucratized and shtreykbrehersky. However, even within the FNPR not all is quiet. More and more radicalization of trade union committees in the field, especially in the Far East, to the north. Increasingly, the left wing FNPR Left worker councils make levet regional committees, etc. The complicated situation in FITUR and sectoral trade unions - at least with the traditional radical miners and metallurgists (GMPR). Also the structure of the FNPR break inside as a purely bureaucratic squabbling for power, and the squabbling within the "United Russia", which, of course, reflected in the trade union center-controlled. All this contributes to the creation of new primaries.
But do not think that "free" trade unions are insured against such ills - far from it. Moreover, the same process of bureaucratic degeneration and market the device in the prostitution trade union center looks small due to its obviousness and pettiness even nastier. Profbyurokratii isolation from the masses of workers is huge and growing every day. The reason is simple: if the current political and economic instability in the country, each small group of the bourgeoisie denotes catch his interest in the future social cataclysm. Considering the protests of workers as "cannon fodder" for their showdown, the capitalists seek to gain control of the labor movement raises its head, that the easiest thing to do, controlling workers' organizations. As a consequence - the mass of "flattering offers" from the bourgeois parties to profbossam.
The situation is different - the interest of the workers themselves. Even if we take a purely economic interests - in order to pursue their claims, workers need organization, they are bound together in unions. This is good. But, once in the regular trade union center, the workers become hostages of the bourgeois games, which is certainly not in favor of their interests. Fight it can and should be through the development of a single line, common tactics of the labor movement in Russia. All the more so on the economic front, as shown by recent isolated strikes, demands for all of about the same - so it's time to talk not only about the salary increase through any given plant (the more so, as the most recent strike at the "Ford" on one factory the employer has learned to press a protest, because it can combine efforts with other bourgeois and use administrative levers). It's time to raise the issue of raising the general level of wages of workers in Russia, and therefore should not strike the plant, and branches, and speak not with a single employer, but with the state. A conversation with the state - a political conversation, and therefore a single political line of the Russian workers' movement is needed, as the air. There is another reason for the development of a single line and tactics - cutting the democratic rights and freedoms. Even today we do not actually have the right to strike - it recognizes illegal in 99% of cases. Tomorrow we will begin to put a strike, if only we let ourselves.
So, life itself has put before us today, these questions, and their decision to delay - dead. We, the workers of Russia, it is necessary to agree on common requirements, common tactics of the struggle, a single political line. We have to coordinate joint actions needed some organization - a coalition with each other. We need the All-Russian Congress of the workers' organizations.
