Rosa Luxembourg

Rosa Luxemburg was a Polish-born Marxist theorist, philosopher, and revolutionary involved in socialist politics in Germany during the early 20th century. She advocated for workers' rights, democratic socialism, and believed in revolutionary change to create a more just and equal society. Luxemburg challenged more moderate approaches, emphasizing the importance of mass action and spontaneous protests. She played a key role in founding the German Communist Party and was a critical voice in socialist debates. Her ideas continue to influence socialist thought, emphasizing democracy within revolutionary change and the importance of international solidarity among workers.
