Rosa red, Rosa eagle: simply Rosa Luxemburgo

Abstract

Rosa Luxemburgo was a complete revolutionary in her theoretical production and action. An internationalist, she was a communist in action and in participatory thinking, who was dedicated to defending working class interests, with a constant concerned for liberty, democracy, complete development and for fighting bureaucracy. She was distinguished for not accepting traditional formulas, while remaining very rigorous with herself, never ceasing to reformulate her ideas and actions, which in her understanding, had a special value in a liberating political struggle. Today, the ?battle of ideas? acquires a very important place in Latin America and the Caribbean, as basic support in the articulation of the social and political realms, and the construction of a future of emancipation, of which Rosa Luxemburgo was a pioneer.
