- Krisis
Krisis, or the Krisis-Gruppe, is an anti-political journal and discussion group formed in
1986 as a "theoretical forum for a radical critique of capitalist society." Its members include Robert Kurz, Roswitha Scholz, Nobert Trenkle, Ernst Lohoff, Achim Bellgart and Franz Schandl.Theory and Ideology
In its journal [ [http://www.krisis.org Krisis Journal (in German)] ] , the group proposes a critique of contemporary capitalist society based on a fundamental reinterpretation of Marx's analysis of the
commodity , value andmoney inDas Kapital .In the "Manifesto Against Labour" [ [http://members.blackbox.net/oebgdk/krisis_manifest-englisch.html Manifesto Against Labour] ] , Krisis argues against the traditional Marxist notion of
class struggle as the motor of history. According to Krisis, there is no class-subject. The struggle between theproletariat and thebourgeoisie is not a struggle between a revolutionary class and its oppressor, but rather a struggle between two opposed interests that are integral to capitalism and form a single "labor camp". Contrary to traditionalMarxism , then, Krisis asserts that the struggle against capitalism is not the struggle for the liberation "of" labor, but rather a struggle for liberation "from" labor.Krisis Division
In 2004 Krisis split, and the members Robert Kurz and Roswitha Scholz together with a several members of the editorial staff formed the
Exit! group. According to Exit! the split was a result of aputsch by a minority of the editorial staff of Krisis [ [http://www.exit-online.org/textanz1.php?tabelle=transnationales&index=1&posnr=23&backtext1=text1.php&PHPSESSID=ac859106df6861045746afba94e7fe73 Regarding the Krisis Group Division] - a statement by three members of the old editorial staff.] .ee also
