Together for a Just World: A New Vision of
International Solidarity

Ali YALÇIN

Abstract
“The global order is undergoing a profound transformation driven by econo-
mic instability, geopolitical tensions, technological change, and ecological
crisis. Four decades of neoliberal restructuring have produced a structural
crisis of labour, marked by deepening inequality, the erosion of collective ri-
ghts, and the fragmentation of class-based solidarity. Authoritarian neolibe-
ral governance has narrowed democratic space while expanding the global
mobility of capital, intensifying precarity and exploitation, particularly in pe-
ripheral economies. In this context, existing international institutions incre-
asingly struggle to address the structural roots of inequality. The emergen-
ce of the International Labour Confederation (ILC) within this conjuncture,
represents an effort to reconstruct transnational labour solidarity through a
systemic critique of global capitalism. The ILC advances an alternative visi-
on centred on social justice, democratic participation, and a human-centred
global order.”

The world is undergoing a transformation of histo-
rically rare scale, speed, and multidimensionality.
Economic instability, geopolitical tensions, techno-
logical revolutions, and ecological rupture are not
merely unfolding simultaneously; they are mutually
reinforcing dynamics that are reshaping the global or-
der. This layered transformation is exposing a profound
structural crisis, particularly in labour regimes. The
social and economic devastation accumula-
ted by neoliberal policies over the past four
decades is now converging with emerging
forms of neo-imperialist competition, fun-
damentally altering both labour’s positi-
on in production processes and its social
standing.
