Showing titles in Communism & Socialism

This is sequel to another volume by Andy Blunden, The Capital/Logic Debate. In this book, the author provides a systematic presentation of the Hegelian structure of the three volumes of Capital. It is shown that Capital contains three distinct layers of structure, originating from Marx’s reading of Hegel’s Logic and his Philosophy of Right. Capital reflects Marx’s critique of the Political Economists, his unique appropriation of economic history and an application of the method outlined by Hegel in his Logic and applied to his Encyclopaedia.

The Republican House Divided is the first comprehensive study of the relationships between the Republican Party and Civil War memory in the twentieth century.

¿Mostró el Gobierno socialcomunista de Pedro Sánchez y Pablo Iglesias una deriva autoritaria desde el inicio de su legislatura? ¿La pandemia le ofreció la oportunidad de acumular todo el poder para cambiar el régimen por la puerta de atrás, constituirse como casta política hegemónica y transformar la sociedad para gobernar en exclusiva? Los autores, la periodista y diputada de la Asamblea de Madrid Almudena Negro y el politólogo Jorge Vilches, están convencidos de ello.

Manifiesto del partido comunista y Reforma o revolución.

A gripping tale of betrayal and counterbetrayal that tells the story of the most enigmatic member of the Cambridge spy ring - Donald Maclean. Donald Maclean was a star diplomat, an establishment insider and a keeper of some of the West's greatest secrets.

Danny Katch brings together the two great Marxist traditions of Karl and Groucho to provide an entertaining and insightful introduction to what the socialist tradition has to say about democracy, economics, and the potential of human beings to be something more than bomb-dropping, planet-destroying, racist fools.

Rogue Elephant traces the radicalization of the Republican Party over the past 50 years, arguing that its subordination to Donald Trump was not an anomaly, but rather the culmination of processes at work for decades. Providing a new perspective on figures from Newt Gingrich and George W. Bush to the Tea Party and Donald Trump, it shows that the party's lurch to the far right was the product of a volatile mix of a disorganized party structure and a divided and fractious class of American business owners.

Prisoners of the American Dream is Mike Davis's brilliant exegesis of a persistent and major analytical problem for Marxist historians and political economists: Why has the world's most industrially advanced nation never spawned a mass party of the working class?

In the 1990s, a vision emerged of a frictionless world of globalization in which the West would become ever richer on the basis of a tech-based service economy, all underpinned by a rules-based liberal international order. It became the basis for the mainstream politics of center-left and right. Philip Pilkington argues that this vision was always delusional and is now dying.

O Manifesto Comunista, publicado originalmente como Manifesto do Partido Comunista, foi encomendado pela Liga dos Comunistas e publicado em 21 de fevereiro de 1848.

Era il 1974 quando Gianni Minà incontrò per la prima volta faccia a faccia Fidel Castro, in occasione di un match di boxe all'Avana.

Following the end of the Cold War, the world experienced a remarkable wave of democratization. Over the next two decades, numerous authoritarian regimes transitioned to democracies, and it seemed that authoritarianism as a political model was fading. But as recent events have shown, things have clearly changed. In Dictating the Agenda, authors Alexander Cooley and Alexander Dukalskis reveal how today's authoritarian states are actively countering liberal ideas and advocacy surrounding human rights and democracy across various global governance domains.

El marxismo ofreció el pensamiento más poderoso e integral de la era cristiana. Sin embargo, estaba equivocado y al plasmarse en los regímenes comunistas, muchos crímenes se cometieron en su nombre.

Anna Scherer ist eine schwäbische Hausfrau, Mutter von fünf Kindern, farbig, ihre Mutter ist Deutsche, ihr Vater Jamaikaner. In diesem Buch beschreibt sie linksgrüne Heuchelei und Doppelmoral in Reinform, da es ja nur eine »richtige« Meinung geben darf. Jeder Andersdenkende ist automatisch »Nazi«, den es mit allen Mitteln der »eigenen« Demokratie zu bekämpfen gilt. Anna Scherer erträgt es trotzdem mit Humor, und sie bleibt stets ehrlich und geerdet dabei.

Die globale Geschichte des 21. Jahrhunderts ist eine Geschichte der Knappheit, ganz gleich, ob es um Wohnungen geht, um Arbeitskräfte, um Technologien oder um saubere Energie. Dabei hat sich die gegenwärtige Krise in den Industriestaaten seit Jahren angebahnt - weil wir eine Politik des Verzichts geübt haben und nicht innovativ genug waren. Ezra Klein und Derek Thompson zeigen, wie wir die politischen, wirtschaftlichen und kulturellen Hindernisse für den Fortschritt überwinden, wie wir Systeme und Institutionen für den Aufbau schaffen und so zu einem neuen Wohlstand gelangen.

Michael Roth schreibt von den "Zonen der Angst" der Berufspolitik. Vom innerparteilichen Machtkampf. Den sozialen Medien und dem drohenden Shitstorm. Dem Pranger, weil man die Rituale und die Sprache der eigenen Bubble, Partei oder Peer-Group infrage stellt. Dem falschen politischen Spiel mit gesellschaftlichen Ängsten. Darunter hat der Mensch Michael Roth immer stärker gelitten - und seine eigene mentale Erkrankung erst spät erkannt. Mit seinem Buch möchte er anderen Mut machen, sich den eigenen Ängsten zu stellen. Dabei schont er weder seine politischen Weggefährten noch sich selbst.
