>> OUR MISSION

The Eureka Initiative serves two goals.

Our first and immediate goal is to develop and spread class consciousness and a revolutionary political approach among the Australia people, through the tools of propaganda, media and volunteer work.

Our secondary goal is working towards the establishment of Socialism in Australia through securing national independence and the formation of a true mass party of the Australian people. The Australian Labor Party (ALP) was the historical party of the Australian working class, however it was founded on an incomplete and undeveloped social-democratic line that led it down the path of racial chauvinism in its early days and neoliberal capitulation in more recent times. This Social-Democratic foundation must be discarded and replaced with a developed Marxist-Leninist line adapted to the conditions of Australia.

We aim towards the establishment and consolidation of a Communist Party that will serve as the vehicle for the interests and will of the Australian working classes. The Communist Party must be independent, maintain a militant class consciousness and embed itself in the fabric of Australian society on as many levels as possible. We will work with other organisations and parties who share this goal.

On the path towards the dictatorship of the Proletariat, we support an Australian New Democracy that ends our submission to global imperialism and does away with our status as a semi-colonial/sub-imperial power. We wish for an alliance of all forces that support this goal; from the working class to progressive elements of the petite bourgeoisie who also have an interest in independence. To promote this, we will work to promote a left-wing patriotic line within the ALP, the Greens and pro-independence elements of the rural ‘right wing’ of Australian politics.
