Revolutionary left publishes El Militante in Spanish, Militant in Catalan and Euskal Herria Sozialista.[2] They contain a socialist perspective on news and current issues. It campaigns for a party of the working class to express the political needs of those not benefiting from the capitalist system. They believe a strong and organized movement of workers and young people can overthrow capitalism and establish a new society. This can be achieved by taking banks and big businesses into public ownership and administering them through democratic control and management.[3]
