The essay discusses four theses on contemporary anti-communism: 1) anti-communism is general and international; 2) anti-communism is an operator within capitalist ideology; 3) anti-communism is a politics of fear; 4) anti-communism is a lure that communists should reject. It proposes new theoretical framework to understand and contest many-faced manifestations of anti-communism.

Prezentowany esej przedstawia cztery tezy na temat współczesnego antykomunizmu: 1) antykomunizm jest powszechny i międzynarodowy; 2) antykomunizm to narzędzie ideologii kapitalistycznej; 3) antykomunizm to polityka strachu; 4) antykomunizm to pokusa, którą powinni odrzucić komuniści. Proponuje też nową ramę teoretyczną umożliwiającą zrozumienie i kwestionowanie różnorodnych manifestacji antykomunizmu.
