Renardism is a theory specific to the socialism based on the thought of André Renard, combining Syndicalism and Walloon militancy. In a speech on November 17, 1960 at Charleroi, in front of a large gathering of syndicalists, André Renard partly explained the tactical aspects of his theory as follows: They made us believe in the socialist opening in Flanders. Just look at numbers. For me, the combat remains whole, but I choose the best ground and the best weapons. For the moment, the best ground and the best weapons are in Wallonia, the best road passes by the defense of the Walloon interests. I am at the same time socialist and Walloon and I embrace the walloon thesises because they are socialist.''〔 «''On nous a fait croire à la percée socialiste en Flandre. Il suffit de voir les chiffres. Pour moi, le combat reste entier, mais je choisis le meilleur terrain et les meilleures armes. Pour le moment, le meilleur terrain et les meilleures armes sont en Wallonie, la meilleure route passe par la défense des intérêts wallons. Je suis en même temps socialiste et wallon et j'épouse les thèses wallonnes parce qu'elles sont socialistes.» Robert Moreau, ''Combat syndical et conscience wallonne'', Charleroi, Liège, Bruxelles, 1984, p. 119. ISBN 2-87003-186-6〕 That was some weeks before the 1960-1961 Winter General Strike. But Renardism must not be summarized to a narrow tactical view. ==Trotskysm? Anarcho-syndicalism?== Since the World War II Renard was opposed to close ties with any political parties 〔Walter Galenson, ''Trade Union Democracy in Western Europe'', University of California Press, Berkeley and Los Angeles, 1961.〕 About Renard Hughe Knatchbull-Hugessen, the British Ambassador to Belgium wrote in 1946 a report on leading personalities in Belgium to Ernest Bevin: ''On close acquaintance he drops the touch of Trotskysm which seasons his public discourses and his anarcho-syndicalism dwindles to a belief that, in view of the present political set-up in Belgium, there is still quite place for direct action.'' 〔Foreign Office 466/1 report on leading personalities in Belgium, 1946, H.Knatchfull to Bevin, 8 February 1946 Quoted by Pierre Tilly, ''André Renard'', FAR, Le CRi, Bruxelles, p. 672. ISBN 2-87106-378-8〕 Forty years later Leo P.Schol stated that Renardisme ''was a model of mobilization torn between three logics: regional, socialist, & working class'' and that in the ''in the late 1980s, these three logics have become stronger, but increasingly separate.'' 〔''Sociological abstracts'', Vol.38, Nummers 3-4.〕 Ernest Mandel, leader of the Fourth International, in line with its policy, joined the Belgian Socialist Party becoming editor of ''La Gauche'' and a member of the economic studies commission of the General Federation of Belgian Labour and an associate of Renard. He and his comrades were expelled from the Socialist Party after the general strike in 1960-1961 Winter General Strike for opposing its coalition with the Christian Democrats and its acceptance of anti-strike legislation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Renardism」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
