Description

It would have been good to be able to make a full report on the practices and experiences in the fight against racism and the extreme right of the trade unions at home and in other countries.

But the difficulty in obtaining systematic information means that it has not been possible in the short term. Therefore, this document is more of a compilation of various items related to the topic.

It is activity-oriented material. Some reports on fascism spend a lot of time on the terminology regarding whether such and such a party is really fascist, extreme right, ultra right, national populist… There are also many theories regarding racism in its different forms.While analysis and theories are important, as long as we are clear that both racism and these parties (with whatever adjectives they are) represent a serious collective threat, it is better to move forward with our answers now. We cannot afford to wait to reach a theoretical consensus on every detail of the danger before acting to stop it.

So we hope that the dossier will contribute to the work ahead.
