(26) It has been our privilege to participate in the historic introduction of these two great revolutionary traditions, the Korean and the Irish, through the programme launched by Comrade Keith to study the works of James Connolly and the Juche Idea. We have come to see that (it is through) the deeper understanding and creative and productive interchange between such dynamic revolutionary traditions that the world revolutionary process will deepen and intensify under the banner of Chajusong (independence). This study programme has been the focus of our work in recent years, and <strike>was</strike> (we have) resisted all attempts by the factionalist flunkeys to suppress it, whether by anti-communist hysteria, physical violence or threats. United as one in the firm conviction that our Connolly - Juche Study programme will prove a focus for

KA ① Comrades, on behalf of Mesquito Press and the Organising Committee for the Seminar on the Juche Idea established by it, I once again express my deep thanks to all those comrades who have honoured us by their presence today. The comrades who have attended our Seminar today, and those who for one reason or another have been unable to attend, but who have in various ways, expressed their greetings and support, can without exaggeration be said to represent the five continents of the world. And for the most part we are talking about comrades on the frontline of the struggle against world imperialism, led by US imperialism. That our Seminar should evoke such a positive response from the world revolutionary forces is above all a tribute to the growing authority of the Juche Idea, and its Creator the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung. It is clear that increasingly the Juche Idea is becoming established as the guiding idea of world revolution in the present epoch. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to visit Pyongyang, the capital city of revolution, will well know how the flaming torch atop the Tower of the Juche Idea illumines the night sky

(2) of the city. Similarly, it is with lessons learned in blood that the revolutionary peoples of the world come to know that the road to victory lies through casting away old ideas and formulae, rejecting dogmatism and Hunkeyism and grasping the future of the revolution in their own hands. As the dear leader Comrade Kim Jong Il points out, "The masses of the people are the masters of revolution and Construction and the decisive factor in transforming nature and developing society." It is the Masses that want the revolution and construction, and it is also the masses that carry them out." The revolutionary ideas of the working class and oppressed peoples are created by great and outstanding leaders of the people. As the dear leader Comrade Kim Jong Il Said, "The revolutionary ideas of the working class are originated by distinguished leaders ... our leader created the great Juche idea after acquiring a deep insight into the requirements of a new era when the oppressed and humiliated Masses of the people became masters of their own destiny. This he developed their struggle for Chajusong onto a higher plane and opened up the age of Juche, a new era in the development

3 of human history. For all communists and revolutionaries it is an axiom that wherever there is oppression there is resistance. This on fact flows from the nature of man as a social being with creativity, consciousness and Chajusong. As the dear leader Comrade Kim Jong Il has explained, "It is natural that man who regards Chajusong as his life and soul, combats any encroachment on his Chajusong." From the slave revolts of Spartacus against the might of the Roman Empire to the recent year-lo strike by the miners in this country, we can see the implacable refusal of oppressed people to accept slavery and the violation of their dignity, and their courageous struggle to assert themselves as masters of the world. However, history also teaches that however often, and however heroically, the masses rise in struggle, their struggles resistance will not end in victory unless they have Correct leadership. As dear Comrade Kim Jong Il pointed out: "If they are to hold their position and fulfill their role ... the popular masses must be brought into contact with leadership." It is therefore to the undying credit of the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung that, whilst still in his early years, he created

④ the L Juche Idea. This idea cleared away the factional fog spread in the Korean revolutionary movement by bigotted nationalists and bogus Marxists, and in the teeth of enormously complex conditions led the Korean revolution to achieve victory. Now the Juche idea has spread to all corners of the globe and Juche Idea Study Groups have been established in nearly every country of the world. I am pleased to take this occasion to announce that the preparations undertaken by Mosquito Press to found such a Study Group in this country are now at an advanced Stage, and that 1985 is the year when this great idea will at last be Systematically Studied and applied here. Of course, a correct guiding idea can only be created in accordance with the developing conditions and demands of the era. It therefore follows that the Juche Idea accords with the present Stage and tasks of the world revolution and provides Correct answers to the problems posed in the revolutionary struggle. As the dear leader Comrade Kim Jong IL makes clear : "When the leaders embarked on the road of revolution, a new development was taking place in the struggle of the working class and the popular Masses against Exploitation and oppression On the world arena, the

(5) influence of Socialism, which had won its first victory, grew strong, and the revolutionary struggle of the working class and the liberation struggle of the peoples in colonies and semi-colonies were intensified sharply. In an attempt to stop the revolutionary advance of the masses and weather the serious political and economic crises they were passing through, the imperialists further increased • their plunder and oppression of the people. In many countries contradictions and antagonism between revolution and counter- revolution were intensified, and the masses of people whose sovereign rights had been trampled down for a long time rose up in a struggle for their class and national liberation. A new age was approaching, in which the revolutionary movement made progress in a • broad and diversified way on a worldwide scale." Following the victory of the Great October Socialist Revolution it rapidly became clear that the focus of world revolution was shifting to the oppressed nations, particularly those in Asia, and it is therefore not surprising, neither is it coincidental, that the leading development in revolutionary ideology should be made by an Asian Communist leader. The principles and policies put forward

⑥ by the Juche idea are fully relevant and applicable to our tasks here. One of the most essential - and in Many respects one that determines the approach to other questions- concerns the Juche-based stand, viewpoint and method of work with people. The dear leader Comrade Kim Jong Il has pointed out "when they are armed with the revolutionary idea and united into an organised political force, the masses can emerge victorious in the revolution. The duty of revolutionaries is to go among the popular masses, Masters of the revolution, to educate, organise and inspire them to a struggle. The revolutionary forces, too, should be trained from among the masses, and all problems arising in the revolutionary struggle should likewise be resolved in reliance on their wisdom and strength." This exposition of the revolutionary work method can clearly be seen to be in contrast to the opportunist, bureaucratic, factional and sectarian methods adopted in the Main by the hondon-based left groups as well as the Labour and Trade Union movement. Like their counterparts in Korea in the early part of the century, they can be described as being "divorced from the masses, only engrossed in the scramble for hegemony and empty talks. They did not unite the masses but divided them by factional strife."
