Ideological Bases for Peaceful Active Co-Existence

Summary/Abstract: Starting from the standpoint that the present level of development of the nonaligned movement, when the first tasks of its foundation have been successfully carried out and its programmes and activities defined, and the level of evolution of peaceful active co-existence to a world political doctrine, allows theoretical discussion of that political phenomenon, the author wishes in this article to open a discussion on the class bases of that international doctrine. The author seeks the ideological basis of peaceful active co-existence in an analysis of the basic aims and tasks of the programme and activity of the nonaligned countries in the international community, which through their active engagement in international political relations endeavour to contribute to the solution of the central problems and fundamental oppositions of the modern world. The classic class conflict of today's international society among the ruling world systems is spreading, judging by a series of characteristics signs, into deep discrepencies between the developed world and the still developing countries and in relation to this, the ideological questions of individual international movements such as nonalignment arc being asked in a new way. Although the very heterogenous structure of the nonaligned movement does not point to the certainty of the existence of a clearly and precisely stated ideology in essence, it is nonetheless, not a case of a world policy which is completely free of any kind of ideological elements. In fact, the increasingly evident process of universal acceptance of the principle of peaceful active co-existence in the regulating of international relations among the various subjects of the contemporary international community, points to the fact that it is a case of an international political alternative which approaches the essential questions of world society globally, and requiring a global solution to these questions, whereby the existing political and other solutions are in fact outgrown. Finally the author concludes that peaceful active coexistence, through its aims and programme, as also the nonaligned movement as a whole, contribute to the development of socialism, not, however, in its block form, but as a progressive world process; however, when considered from the ideological aspect, peaceful active co-existence may be taken also as a new model for international relations in general. With its visionary and imaginative components with regard to the future organisation of the international community, peaceful active co-existence questions todays ideologies themselves, in the same way that the nonaligned movement. through its requirement for the wides democratisation of international relations, questioned the post-war, now already out-of-date and insufficiently flexible, block structure of today's world society.
