PROGRAM
OF
"THE
COMMUNIST PARTY OF IRAN"
Capitalism, as a
productive system which has brought the human subsistence
and the development of human society throughout the world
under its control, following its global expansion and the
internal social changes in Iran, dominated all of the
productive, social, political and cultural fields in Iranian
society, gradually and during a multi-decade evolution and
progress. Thereby, the basically agricultural and mainly
rural society gave place to a mainly town-dwelling society,
which the major part of its necessities was met in the towns
and cities and by mechanical production in the factories.
In Iran and under the
ruling of Shah’s regime, the reforms that were carried out
conservatively and by the order of high-ranking officials in
the 60’s, were parts of similar plans and reforms that
were taking place during the same period and throughout
other parts of the world by the leadership of Imperialist
capitalism and in order to meet the needs of global capital,
and imminent political, economical and social necessities of
these societies.
Eliminating feudalism
eventually in a legal way, these reforms paved the ground
for more-than-ever development of internal market and
capitalization of the production. Millions of rural people,
who were now landless and "free", departed to the
towns and cities in search of work and, as a result, working
population in industrial production greatly increased. This
process transformed the society within a decade and
confirmed bourgeoisie influence over the various parts of
the productive, economic, social, cultural and political
life.
Existing oil incomes
expedited the disintegration of feudalism relations and
capitalist development; thereby, Iranian society was pulled
more than ever into the circle of the capitalist countries
and their global relations. Oil incomes not only compensated
the disadvantage of the rupture of the old social structure
and the destruction of feudalism for landowners and
aristocrats, but also did provide the expenses of innovation
in the society and development of a modern government. Oil
incomes enabled the government, protecting the interests of
the ruling class, to take the control of the key sections of
economy in Iran, and by absorbing a great part of working
power into offices and State workshops, became the major
employer, and has maintained this role to the very present
time.
The abolition of feudalism
cleared the way legally out of all limitations that
hindered, socially and economically, the presentation of
working power; the success of the internal market paved the
way to exploit the "free" workers and, therefore,
besides and following the reforms in the 60s, working power
as a commodity interred increasingly into the developing
capitalist relations in Iran.
The promotion of
capitalism in Iran dismantled many of the age-old
traditions, conventions and decrepit structure of the old
society, and gave the way to the knowledge and technical
sciences to affect various aspects of social life. But, this
profound social change not only failed to decrease class
distance and human sufferings, but also increased the
problems and misery in social life and increased the
distance between the rich and the poor.
In the middle-70s, because
of the increase in the life subsistence, unemployment, and
alsodecrease of real level of wages, the life of the working
class worsened more than ever. Therefore, workers struggles
in defense of their life standards and improvement of their
life conditions intensified in the major productive and
industrial centers.
Working masses, that had
left the villages, were determined to find a place to live
in the suburbs of the big cities and, as a result, the
population of these suburb-residents was constantly rising.
The people in these suburbs had very miserable lives and, in
the meantime, were aware of very luxurious lives of the
rich. They, providing very precious sources of cheap working
power for the bourgeoisie, formed new organizations in
opposition to the capitalist government by their specific
demands.
Development of state
bureaucracy and police-like interference in people’s
lives, dictatorship of security and law-enforcement agencies
and suppressing any opposition, strike and voice of
liberation, severe censorship, lack of expression and
restraining any political and union activity independent
from the government exasperated the people and provided a
very suitable and explosive situation for a revolution.
Following these social
facts, the political legitimacy and social acceptability of
the government, which itself was the cause for establishing
many cultural and social changes in the contemporary time,
was called into question by the public. As this process
continued, public masses rose with the hope of freedom and
ending their sufferings and deprivations; revolution emerged
everywhere and, thereby, the whole apparatus of the monarchy
dictatorship was demolished.
But this revolution and
its development were co-incident with the absence of mass
worker organizations; there was no strong socialist party in
the Iran’s political scene at the time, however, the
existing left parties failed to play their independent role
not only in the field of organizing the workers and the
masses, but also in the political scene of the society; some
of them followed the policies of the reactionary religious
forces. Liberal bourgeoisie also, worrying from the
potential deepening of the revolution, followed the
reactionary religious forces. In such conditions, the Shiite
clergy and the Islamic Republic became the alternative of
the imperialist powers and Iranian bourgeoisie to save their
interests and capitalism from the existing crises of
revolution. The Islamic Republic was the scapegoat of
Iranian capitalism against the revolution and during the
crisis period of the time. Paving the way for
re-accumulating the capital under the banner of Islamic
ruling and, in the meantime and within the framework of the
western imperialism strategies, keeping Iran as a barricade
against the development of the influence of the former
Soviet Union in the region, as it was before, were the main
aims of giving the power to this regime.
The state suppress machine
was completely revived and evolved. The political power was
placed far from the hands of the revolution; in fact, the
revolution was made mute and dead on the very uprising night
and the rabietic reaction, in the guise of
revolution, restored suppression, stranglehold and terror.
The masses became terrified and quenched, and, one more
time, the toilers age-old hope for freedom perished.
Afterwards, the Islamic regime used the devastating war
between Iran and Iraq, which lasted 8 years, as an
opportunity to restrain the revolutionary struggles more
than ever, to make the rich wholly behave as its supporters,
to carry out its extreme Islamic plans and, finally, to gain
influence in the region. It was no sooner than the threat of
a mass uprising which made them feel the dangerous situation
that they eventually were convinced to bury the hatchet.
In the capitalist Iran,
under the ruling of the Islamic republic, the gap between
two different classes has become increasingly widened, and
the exorbitant wealth has been piled up on the excessive
poverty. Lack of security and welfare among the majority of
people, that is the workers, has been used as a pretext to
provide security and welfare for the rich. Now, after all,
the society has become a scene of confrontation between two
major classes: the large mass of wage-laborers, and the
capitalism and its ruling government. More than ever, the
fact that the working class will be the main power in every
forthcoming change in Iran has become evident to everyone.
The Communist Party of
Iran, as a Marxist organization, struggles for eradicating
the political and economical ruling of capitalism, and
establishment of the proletariat ruling and a socialist
society; a society in which there is no place for the
exploitation of humans by humans, and also no place for
government and all of its supporting organs. Our final goal
is to achieve a society in which freedom and public welfare
take over the chains, injustice and deprivation, and equal
opportunities are provided for the progress of humans and
the growth of their faculties and talents; a society in
which everyone works according to her/his abilities and gets
according to her/his needs, and there is no government to
stand superior to the society and link their chains to the
age-old exploitation, cruelty, superstition and ignorance.
In our point of view,
socialism is not a matter of annknown and distant future;
its background, ability and social and economical
possibilities have all been provided in the very capitalist
system of Iran. The abundant wealth of Iranian society and
the solidarity with the International working class will be
two factors that guarantee the endurance and stability of
socialism in Iran.
Under the present
conditions, overthrow of the stranglehold and the
suppressive system in Iran is the immediate aim of the
workers struggles. But, under such conditions that the
capitalist system still continues to its ruling, The
Communist Party of Iran, while struggling constantly to
establish socialism and a communist society, in order to
improve the life conditions of the masses of workers and
toilers and to provide a more secure and humane environment
in which we all live, will never abandon, even in the
framework of the present regime, the struggle for carrying
out the vanguard and modern political, economical, social
and cultural reforms. The achievement of these reforms,
however, will pave the way for proletariat revolution and
for socialism. Therefore, the Communist Party of Iran
struggles to achieve the following reforms:
TOP
"THE
COUNCILS AND THE SOVEREIGNTY OF THE PEOPLE"
The worldwide experience,
and now also the experience of Iran, has well proved that
the parliamentary democracy, under deceitful guise, has
always been the means of practically depriving the workers
and the masses of effectively determining their own fate. In
our point of view, a soviet system is the best and most
available means by which the whole working class and all of
the people can function as legislative and executive bodies
in the society, and, thereby, determine their own life.
Under the present conditions that technological progress
has, more than ever, developed the International
communication so that everyone can access the information in
every field of knowledge, a soviet system will facilitate
the direct participation of workers and masses in the
administration of the social affairs more than ever. This
system can also prevent the establishment of a bureaucratic
system, which can be placed superior to the revolution and
people, thereby, making them an incapable audience of the
political scene.
Local soviets, the soviets
of the people’s representatives at all levels, and the
all-Iran congress of the deputies of the people’s soviets,
as the country’s supreme ruling organ, form the structure
of the political power in the country and will provide the
real opportunity and possibility for workers and all of the
people to participate in both the administration of the
societal affairs and in the determination of their own
political and economical future.
TOP
"
THE ABOLITION OF THE BEAURACRACY APPARATUS SUPREIOR TO
PEOPLE"
The direct participation
of the people in the administration of the country’s
affairs, all of the administrative and political authorities
of the country to be elective, and also recallable whenever
the majority of the electors decide; Persons elected to such
posts in this way should receive salaries at most equal to
the wage of a skilled worker. The individuals have the right
to lodge complaints against any state official through civil
courts.
The judges and other
judicial authorities to be elective, and recallable whenever
the majority of the electors decide; the strict abolition of
any kind of special courts; public hearing of all trials.
TOP
"DISSOLUTION
OF THE ARMY AND OTHER PROFESSIONAL ARMED FORCES"
The army, Pasdaran Corps,
and the other suppressive organs of the Islamic Republic
must be disbanded. Our final aim is to dissolve all of the
professional armed forces; but, when there is a situation in
which the professional army has not completely disbanded, it
must be controlled and commanded by the general congress of
the soviets, and we also struggle for democratizing the
official relations inside the army. We stand for the
absolute prohibition of any interference of the army in the
internal affairs and consider it merely a defensive organ,
not an aggressive one.
TOP
"PERSONAL,
POLITICAL AND SOCIAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS"

THE ABOLITION OF DISCRIMINATION AGAINST WOMEN, THE EQUALITY
OF MEN AND WOMEN"
The Communist Party of
Iran struggles for the establishment of the complete
equality of men and women in all of the fields of their
activities in political, economical, social and familial
fields; therefore, in our point of view, the realization of
the followings is urgent:
TOP
"SOCIAL
AND POLITICAL RIGHTS"
Men and women must benefit
equally the right of electing and being elected in any
legislative, judiciary and administrative organs at any
civil level. All of the laws and principals which restrict
the women in their choice of clothes and the way they wear,
like the compulsory law of Hejab (veil-wearing), must be
abolished. Any law or principal expressing separation of the
men and women in meetings, schools, universities and public
places and means of transportation must be eliminated. Any
kind of discrimination according to sex must be abolished.
All of the studying classes must be transformed to
coeducational ones. Women have the right for taking part in
any athletic, artistic and scientific activities and must
enjoy the complete facilities in the said fields.
Women must be set free
from the burden of the housework, and, therefore, their
participation in social affairs and relations must be
facilitated; for this purpose, special welfare institutions
like nursery, kindergarten, laundry, etc must be established
in the residential areas and be available as pay-free
services for the public.
Complete equal employment
opportunities for both men and women, paying equal wages for
similar work to men and women, and equal social insurance
for men and women. Employed women’s enjoying of two days
off every month; prohibition of committing pregnant women to
heavy work; the prohibition of the dismissal of pregnant
women with any pretext; preventing the pregnant women, and
the women who have children, from work is illegal and is
considered an unlawful act; the prohibition of stating the
sex of applicant in educational or employment advertisements
(unless specified by the law as exceptions.)
Specifying 16 weeks as
leave of absence for women at the time of pregnancy, and one
year as leave of absence for taking care of the baby; this
one-year leave of absence may be used, in the case of
agreement, either by the husband or by the wife.
TOP
"WOMEN
RIGHTS IN THE FAMILY"
Freedom in marriage and
selecting a spouse. Prohibition of any form of financial
transaction in marriage, such as fixing Mehriyye, Shirbaha,
Jahizieh (dowry), etc. (various payments by the two parts of
the marriage); recognition of marriage by registration at
State Registration Office; prohibition of Seegheh (Islamic
wife-renting) and polygamy; equal right for men and women in
the case of divorce and in the custody of children. The
prohibition of marriage for girls and boys of under 18;
religious officials who run the marriage contract for
persons under 18 must be prosecuted by court. The
prohibition of sexual relationship between persons above 18
and those under 16.
In all aspects of familial
life, husband and wife must have complete equal rights and
responsibilities in their own relationship, and also in
their relationships with their children. The place of
residence must be chosen by the agreement of both sides. The
law that only recognizes the husband’s right to choose the
place of residence must be abolished. Women’s right to
work and to travel must not be limited to their husbands
permission.
All of the legal and
common laws which, under the pretext of "defending the
chastity", reduce the sentences of crimes against women
must be abolished. Severe sentences must be passed for
crimes committed under the pretext of "defending the
chastity" by father, brother, husband or anyone else
against women. Any discrimination and inequalities between
men and women in affairs like heritage, dividing the
properties, and legal privileges of men and paternal

Personal relationship between husband and wife is respectful
and must be protected from any kind of interference.
Interference of state officials in the personal life of
husband and wife is strongly prohibited.
TOP
"THE
ABORTION"
The capitalist society
puts only two choices on the way for women who unwillingly
get pregnant: abortion or, otherwise, sustaining severe
mental, economic and social conditions. Poverty and
incapability in affording economical facilities for
children, real and practical obstacles which are inevitable
on the way of women’s participation in social and economic
affairs in the case of having children and undertaking them,
and social outcomes for a single woman in the case of having
children, all are the causes that make most women to put an
end to their pregnancies, and when this is illegal, pregnant
women have to do the abortion by non-specialist persons,
under the non-hygienic conditions and by paying large
amounts of money. Considering these facts, the abortion
right must be recognized for women if there is no fatal life
danger for them and if the embryo’s age is not above 16
weeks; abortion is not conditioned to anyone or any official’s
permission except for the woman’s one.
The abortion must be done,
free from paying any expenses, in hospitals or clinics, and
under the supervision of a specialist doctor; otherwise, law
should prosecute those who do the abortion without having
the necessary specialty.
TOP
"PROSTITUTION"
Prostitution is a kind of
oppression that is compelled on the women in the capitalist
society, and, therefore, struggle against prostitution is
vital to restore the humane respect of women in the society.
In the present societies, poverty, lack of social
assistance, legal and practical limitations on the way of
women employment and, thus, in the way of their
independence, male- chauvinistic attitude and the manner and
behavior of men as privileged sex in the society are the
causes of prostitution to be established, maintained and
spread. As the experience of Iran under the ruling of the
Islamic Republic has well shown, religious trainings and
prejudices have resulted in spreading the male-chauvinistic
attitude and the privileged position of men and, on the
other hand, the minor position of women in the society;
this, in turn, is a good dissemination of prostitution among
people.
Uprooting the prostitution
demands struggle against all of the above causes. Moreover,
in order to fight against prostitution, the following
undertakings are urgent. The government must support the
victims of prostitution economically, and provide
educational facilities and employment possibilities for
them. Procurers must be prosecuted by law and be punished by
severe sentences.
TOP
"ENDING
THE NATIONAL OPPRESSION AND NATIONALITY-BASED
DESCRIMANATION"
National oppression is one
of the dominant discriminations and sightlessness states in
Iran, which must be decisively annihilated:
We struggle for equality
of the rights of nations, abolition of all of the legal and
practical discriminations based on the nationality, ending
the bureaucratic interference of the ruling government in
the personal affairs of people, providing a situation in
which democratic organs of the people’s local ruling can
be formed, and the abolition of compulsory official
language; we combat against causing and provoking national
hostility among different nations.
We believe that the
expediencies of the proletariat struggle towards socialism
necessitates their political and action unity, and,
therefore, the Communist Party of Iran tries to unite the
working class of Iran in all of the fields of their
struggle. Hence, we recognize the right of
self-determination, that is their freedom choice even to
separate from the central State, for all of the nations
dwelling in Iran. However, we demand the unity of all
nations, democratically and voluntarily, and believe that
such a unity is in the favor of workers and toiler masses.
Also in order to promote
the level of general culture and welfare which will, in
turn, facilitates the joining of other toilers of the
society in the struggle of the working class for ultimate
emancipation, we demand the realization of the following:
1-Adequate unemployment
benefit, on the basis of the minimum wage, for every
unemployed individual over the age of 18;
2- The provision and
guarantee of suitable housing (from the viewpoint of space,
hygiene and urban services) for all citizens and immediate
measures in this field through: confiscation of all lands of
land grabbers and the luxurious and superfluous residential
places of the rich, unnecessary State offices and
departments, and the carrying out of short-term housing
projects in the confiscated lands at the State’s expense,
with the discretion of and by the people’s democratic
organs;
3- Free and suitable
national health and medical treatment for all citizens, and
medical and clinical facilities available everywhere in the
country; dissolution of private medical practice;
4- Free education at all
levels and for all citizens; education to be compulsory
until the age of 16, and an eminent program for uprooting
the illiteracy;
5- The creation of
cultural and welfare facilities in all deprived regions,
whether urban or rural, such as electricity, telephone,
plumbing system of drinking water, roads, schools, clinics,
sports-halls, assembly halls, etc. at the State’s expense;
6- The creation of special
welfare institutions for the purpose of reducing the burden
of housework, such as laundry, kindergarten, etc. in the
residential areas
7- The provision of the
life facilities, security, recreation and education of
children by the State, and independent from their familial
conditions. The responsibility for looking after all
children and youngsters of under 18 who lack living and
welfare security through the family, to be placed under the
guardianship of the State;
8- The securing by the
State of the living and welfare of all the disabled, and
providing the facilities necessary for them to express
themselves socially;
9- Provision of the living
facilities and welfare of all the elderly people, deserving
their high position and considering their respect, by the
State;
10- Elimination of all the
indirect taxes;
11 The prohibition of
marriage for girls and boys under 18 and the freedom of all
individuals above 18 to form a family at their own will.
"PROTECTION
OF THE ENVIRONMENT"
The Communist Party of
Iran recognizes all of the mineral resources, rivers,
forests, and grasslands as the public properties. We support
the protection of natural resources and the environment, and
also prevention from misusing them. The contamination of
natural resources and causing air pollution in residential
areas must be considered as unlawful acts and should face
severe penalties.
TOP
"LABOR
LAW AND WORKER’S RIGHTS"
In the circumstances under
which the capitalist system still continue to its ruling,
the provision of the minimum of subsistence and welfare
obliges the workers to submit to continuous, hard and
unbearable labor which depletes their strength and health,
and deprives them of the possibility and opportunity of
moral development and the promotion of the level of their
political and class consciousness. We, in order to secure
the comfort and the material welfare of the workers and in
order to safeguard the working class from intellectual and
physical deterioration and increase its abilities in the
struggle for complete emancipation from the yoke of
capitalist oppression and exploitation, demand the
realization of the following for all workers:

The Communist Party of
Iran struggles persistently in order to achieve the above
reforms for the workers and deprived masses in their social
life. We support any struggle for liberation and freedom
against the Islamic Republic, and support any movement that
persistently struggles for abolition and eradication of any
kind of sexual, religious, national, political, economical,
social and cultural discrimination.
The Communist Party of
Iran will participate in any struggle, social movement and
political organization if it recognizes that they are in
favor of the working and socialist forces and can help them
to take the political power in their control. |
