Anarchism:
From Theory to Practice
“One of the ablest leaders and
writers of the French New Left describes the two realms of
‘anarchism’—its intellectual substance, and its actual practice
through the Bolshevik Revolution, the Spanish Civil War, the Italian Factory
Councils, and finally the role in workers self-management in Yugoslavia and
Algeria.... An important contemporary definition of New Left aims and their
possible directions for the future.” “A significant contribution to the current re-examination of marxist revolutionary theory.... [Guérin] writes lucidly and knowledgeably ...” —NEW SOCIETY Beyond Capital:
Toward a Theory of
Transition “Not only profound in its analysis,
but also so passionately inspired by sympathy for the downtrodden and their
struggle for liberation.” “Belongs in every serious library...” —CHOICE The Communist Manifesto First published in London in 1848, the Communist Manifestois one of the most important books of all time: a document which helped to define the emerging socialist movement, altered the course of world history, and is universally acknowledged to be a cornerstone of modern social thought. Discourse on Colonialism
(New Edition) "Aimé
Césaire threw an intellectual fireball into our midst with his
Discourse on Colonialism, and half a century later it still burns
bright. The world has changed since he penned this brilliant polemical essay,
but the dialectical verities that he exposed and analyzed remain with us."

| How to Read Karl Marx
This study is a brief, clear, and faithful exposition of Marx's major premises, with particular attention to historical context. This edition includes new commentary by John Bellamy Foster, a biographical chronology, extracts from major works of Marx, and “Marx’s Method” by Paul M. Sweezy. In Defense of History:
Marxism and the
Postmodern Agenda “A hard-hitting critique... In
Defense of History brings together fine essays that speak directly to the
underlying assumptions of postmoderism and offer a stunning critique of its
usefulness in both understanding and critiquing the current historical
epoch.” Socialism or Barbarism: From the “American Century” to the Crossroads by István Mészáros This bold study presents a compelling analysis of the historical choices facing us at the outset of the millennium and, in the process, gives new meaning and urgency to the alternatives posed by Rosa Luxemburg at the beginning of the twentieth century. Spectres of Capitalism:
A Critique of Current
Intellectual Fashions “A lively book
that challenges prevailing views.... [Amin] covers much territory within the
space of this slim volume and deserves much credit for making the book quite
readable, even for those without great knowledge of postmodernism, marxism, or
formal economics.” |

Whose Millennium?: Theirs or Ours? by Daniel Singer “Daniel Singer
identifies the forces that could construct an altogether new Europe and a new
world on the basis of a different logic and priorities, an alternative to the
unbelievably destructive, symbiotic logic of the universal free-marketeers and
the local despots and ethnic cleansers.” |
