Remembering Rosa Luxemburg on Her Death Centenary

The year 2019 marks a century since the brutal murder of Rosa Luxemburg, on 15 January 1919, when she just a little over 47 years old. In her life and death for socialist revolution, Rosa Luxemburg remains a revolutionary icon. She epitomised a steadfast opposition to colonialism, militarism, imperialism and the wars it unleashed. Understanding her life and times is in many ways pertinent for those who are a part of the struggle against neo-fascism in the current conjuncture in India.
