About the Book
¿Por qué este libro? ¿Y por qué ahora?Con el rápido desarrollo de la inteligencia artificial y su creciente influencia en diversos aspectos de la vida, se ha vuelto esencial ofrecer un análisis de izquierda integral sobre este tema clave. La IA se ha convertido en una piedra angular en la transformación de las relaciones laborales, los patrones de producción y la gestión de la conciencia pública, superando las herramientas tradicionales del capitalismo. La ausencia de un análisis socialista sobre la IA permite que las élites capitalistas dirijan el discurso en favor de sus intereses de clase. Por ello, es necesario un análisis que explique cómo se utiliza la IA no solo como herramienta de producción, sino también como medio de control del trabajo, la conciencia y la reestructuración de los mercados.
¿Por qué una perspectiva de izquierda sobre la IA?
Este libro tiene como objetivo ofrecer una primera crítica desde la izquierda sobre la inteligencia artificial, exponiendo su vínculo con la dominación del capital y explorando su potencial como herramienta de liberación dentro de un marco socialista. No es solo un texto teórico, sino un intento de iniciar un debate desde la izquierda sobre cómo recuperar la tecnología de manos de las corporaciones y los grandes Estados para que sirva a la justicia social, la igualdad y la democracia.
La IA no es una amenaza por sí misma; es un campo de batalla donde se libra la lucha de clases. La revolución digital está transformando el control sobre el conocimiento, convirtiéndolo en un terreno crucial para esa lucha. La tecnología no es neutral, y el reto consiste en garantizar que sirva a las masas, no en que profundice el control capitalista.
¿Qué ofrece este libro?Este libro presenta una visión crítica de la IA desde una perspectiva de izquierda electrónica, basada en los principios del izquierdismo electrónico. Busca recuperar la tecnología y redirigir la IA para que sirva a la sociedad, con un enfoque en la construcción de internacionales digitales de izquierda. La solución pasa por desarrollar sistemas abiertos, transparentes, gestionados democráticamente, y por promover leyes internacionales que regulen la IA en beneficio del bien común, no del interés capitalista. La verdadera solución consiste en construir alternativas progresistas con propiedad comunitaria, utilizando la IA para desmantelar la explotación y crear una sociedad más justa.
El desarrollo de capacidades técnicas desde la izquierda se ha vuelto una necesidad estratégica, paralela al desarrollo de capacidades en los campos político, intelectual, organizativo, mediático y de base. Así como la izquierda no puede depender de los medios capitalistas y busca construir sus propios medios independientes, y al igual que desarrolla su pensamiento, política y herramientas organizativas de forma autónoma y fuera del marco de la dominación capitalista, también debe trabajar en la construcción de alternativas tecnológicas independientes, con la IA en la vanguardia, al servicio de su proyecto integral de liberación.

About the Author
Rezgar Akrawi
Writer and Researcher
An independent leftist and the theorist of the concept of "the Digital Left," which he has developed for more than a quarter of a century and first presented under the name "the Electronic Left," the term in common use at the time. This approach rests on a central thesis: that the digital revolution is a structural transformation in the nature of power and the mechanisms by which it is produced, and that confronting capitalism in its digital phase requires intellectual, organizational and technical renewal in the very structure of the Left, and the building of a cross-border Digital Left International.
Coordinator of the Center for Studies and Research on Marxism and the Left, and founder and general coordinator of the Modern Discussion Foundation (Al-Hiwar Al-Mutamaddin), one of the most prominent and widely read leftist and progressive platforms in the Arab world.
Born: 1966, Aqrah, Iraq.
Political Activity
Active since the 1980s in several leftist parties and organizations, from the Iraqi Communist Party to the Communist Current Organization and the Worker-communist Party of Iraq, until 2000, he contributed to shaping visions for developing leftist work and strengthening coordination among its forces. He also worked within the ranks of the Danish Red-Green Alliance (Enhedslisten) between 2006 and 2010.
He believes that moving beyond traditional disagreements and focusing on common ground is a condition for any leftist revival, and calls for the founding of a unified, democratic, multi-platform leftist framework, with organizational mechanisms based on collective leadership and management and horizontal structure, and grounded in modern scientific and technological foundations and in the development of knowledge and rights.
Human Rights
A human rights activist, he was among the first contributors to the founding of the "Union of the Unemployed" in Iraq in 1992, and a member of the Iraqi Human Rights Association in Denmark between 1998 and 2000.
An advocate of the abolition of the death penalty, he is one of the founders of the "Right to Life" center, which campaigns against it in the Arab world. He has also worked on issues of gender equality and women's rights, and has taken part in numerous international conferences and meetings in these fields.
Books and Writings
Author of the book "The Most Prominent Intellectual and Organizational Foundations of the Electronic Left," in which he set out the beginnings of the intellectual and organizational framework of this current, from defining the place of digital space in the class struggle to the forms of organization and work it proposes to the forces of the Left.
In March 2025 he published the book "Capitalist Artificial Intelligence: Challenges for the Left and Possible Alternatives: Technology in the Service of Capital or a Tool for Liberation?", made freely available without copyright restrictions, and it has been translated into thirty-two other languages.
The book sparked a wide debate that extended to dozens of countries, and researchers and academics from the Arab world, Kurdistan, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Canada, the United States and elsewhere wrote about it, while its ideas were taken up in works published in other languages. This new book brings together his latest texts alongside that debate, with all the support and criticism it contained.
Publishing and Media
He has published dozens of intellectual and political articles and studies in leftist and progressive newspapers, magazines and websites.
His books and articles have been translated and published in dozens of languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Greek, Turkish, Danish, Russian, Chinese, Hindi, Norwegian, Persian and others, and have appeared in leftist and progressive outlets in dozens of countries, from India and Brazil to Malaysia, Chile, Sri Lanka and South Africa. He has also contributed to translation and editing, and has written studies in his fields of specialization.
Technology and Digital Transformation
A specialist in information technology, he has contributed over more than a quarter of a century to building and supporting dozens of websites, platforms and digital applications for leftist and progressive organizations, human rights organizations and feminist organizations, with the aim of putting digital tools at the service of leftist and progressive thought.
Education and Academic Specialization
Bachelor's degree in Industrial Management from the University of Mosul (1989), and a Higher Diploma in Computer Science from Copenhagen International College (2000), in addition to numerous specialized courses in the internet, programming and information technology.
He works as an expert in developing e-government systems, and has long experience in implementing digital transformation projects in Denmark.
