The agrarian revolution revolutionary realism versus reformist Utopia. Glossary/names. This book by Alan Woods is essential reading for all those who want to understand what is happening in Venezuela today. But this is no mere description of events. It is a powerful Marxist analysis of the Venezuelan Revolution its weakness and strengths its contradictions and unique characteristics. The book was not written with hindsight. Every chapter beginning with the coup of April 2002 was written as the events themselves were unfolding and traces the winding course of the revolution. They reflect the immediacy and lightening speed of events happening before our very eyes. Today Latin America is in the Vanguard of world revolutionary developments and within the Latin American continent Venezuela stands out sharply as the country most affected by this process. It would be no exaggeration to say that Venezuela is now the key to the international situation. It therefore follows that the class conscious workers and youth in Britain and elsewhere must closely follow the events in Venezuela and assist the revolution with every means possible. Alan Woods has been a consistent champion of the Venezuelan Revolution since its inception. He helped initiate the hands off Venezuela Campaign. He has held personal discussions with President Hugo Chavez which are recounted in this book. The author concludes that the Venezuelan Revolution cannot stop half way and holds up the perspective of a victorious socialist transformation. Only by expropriating the power of the oligarchy can it succeed and spread to the rest of the continent. This is no foreign idea but in essence is the vision of Simon Bolivar in the context of the 21 century of the creation of a democratic socialist federation of Latin America. 188 pp.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This volume stems from essays written in theEconomic & Political Weeklyon the crisis confronting the Left in India along with the challenging of the basic concepts of communist politics liks democratic centralism, essays which were responded with critical philosophical reading of Revolution…ary Marxism, especially on the need of understadning Hegelian dialectics for constructing mass-based communist politices. While the theme of the crisis of the Left formed part of the debate in theEconomic & Political Weeklythere was a dialectical counterpoint that located the crisis in the form of parliamentary politics of the Left that worked in the strange thematic of Marxism devoid of Marx and emancipation devoid of humanity. The crisis of the Left in India was thus not merely pointed to a form of politics that was becoming irrelevant to the Indian masses in the form of social engineering. The crisis was understood as a form of philosophically uninformed Left politics that drew more from Stalin to Mao than on Marx's emancipatory repertoire itself. The debates on this theme of whether Stalin to Mao are not merely relevant to revolutionary politics, but whether both were essentially counterrevolutionary form a part of this volume. The analysis of the collapse of the Soviet Union and whether socialism collapsed in the early 1990s or whether the rise of Stalinism in the late 1920s signified the collapse of socialism forms an important part of this work. The volume stresses on the need for reading Marx'sEconomic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844and his theory of alienation in modern capitalist society along withCapitaland Lenin'sState and Revolution. In order that one contextualises alienation in the larger narrative of class struggle, caste and the Asiatic mode of production, as well as to locate this important debate on the challenges confronting the Indian Left in its important historical and philosophical contexts, other interventions came up, penned especially for this volume, where the relevance of Gramsci along with the questions of the contemporary nature of imperialism and the nature of the socialist alternative, the analysis of the downward slide of the Parliamentary Left in the 2009 National Elections that culminated in the triumph of the Indian fascists in the 2014 National Elections and the inherent opportunist and defeatist nature of parliamentary politics have been included. The analysis of the rise of fascism and its linking to both the violent nature of capital accumulation in the 21st century, as well to the caste syste, also forms a part of this work. The study of European and Indian fascism is also included here. This volume seeks to be both empirical as well as theoretical, where along with Marx's original works, the ideas of Lenin, Rosa Luxemburg, Mao Tse-tung, Georg Lukacs, Antonio Gramsci, Louis Althusser, Paul Sweezy and Salvoj Zizek also emerge in critical discussions.

Hardbound. Condizione: As New. New. Contents Foreword. Preface. Introduction China and socialism. 1. China's rise to model status. 2. China's economic transformation. 3. Contradictions of China's transformation domestic. 4. Contradictions of China's transformation international. 5. China and socialism conclusion. Appendix Tables…. Notes. Index. The fastest growing economy in the world today is that of China. For many on the left the Chinese economy seems to provide an alternative model of development to that of neoliberal globalization. Although it is a disputed question whether the Chinese economy can be still described as socialist there is no doubting the importance for the global project of socialism of accurately interpreting and soberly assessing its real prospects. Hart Landsberg and Burkett's China and Socialism argues that market reforms in China are leading inexorably toward a capitalist and foreign dominated development path with enormous social and political costs both domestically and internationally. The rapid economic growth that accompanied these market reforms have not been due to efficiency gains but rather to deliberate erosion of the infrastructure that made possible a remarkable degree of equality. The transition to the market has been based on rising unemployment intensified exploitation declining health and education services exploding government debt and unstable prices. At the same time China's economic transformation has intensified the contradictions of capitalist development in other countries especially in East Asia. Far from being a model that is replicable in other third world countries China today is a reminder of the need for socialism to be built from the grassroots up through class struggle and international solidarity. 159 pp.

Hardbound. Condizione: As New. New. Contents Introduction. 1. Historical materialism as a science. 2. Social being and social consciousness. 3. Forms of social consciousness and their social function. 4. Material production the basis of social life. 5. The socioeconomic formation. 6. Social revolution. 7. Social classes and clas…s struggle. 8. The political organisation of society. 9. The historical forms of human community. 10. The Marxist conception of history and revolutionary optimism. Notes. Mainstream social science fragments the study of society into a number of unconnected disciplines such as archaeology social anthropology economics political science history none of which is concerned with actually uncovering the fundamental lass which govern the origin development and organisation of society. Marxism however is concerned with the big picture. Furthermore it regards history and society as the product of collective human action which can therefore be changed by the struggle of the working people. But in order to do this we need a scientific understanding of the laws that govern and shape social life. That is what historical materialism provides. This book is a comprehensive introduction to the Marxist theory of history and politics. 214 pp.

America and the capitalist revolution. Bibliography. Notes. Index. Humanity and Society is unlike most other world histories as it does not reflect a world dominated by Europe and the United States with a supporting cast of superficially treated peripheral countries. Rather this book seeks to present a non Eurocentric balanced account of human history one that is not merely a survey of kings parliaments and wars but a portrait of the major developments and integrations of social and cultural movements. The emphasis is on the larger social matters the conditions of labor (slavery serfdom) the social status of women war economic history and political structures. It provides an account that while richly detailed remains highly readable and successfully meets the colossal challenge that the undertaking of a world history presents. 470 pp.

This book is one of the best surveys of the development and explication of the labor theory of value. In writing this book which first appeared in 1956 Meek had two distinct objectives. His first was to build some sort of bridge between Marxian economists and their non Marxian colleagues so that the latter can at least be made to see what the former are trying to get at. His second was to help his fellow Marxian economists in the task of reapplying the Marxian categories to the very different conditions which obtain a century after the publication of Das Kapital. 332 pp.

Increasingly discussions about fundamentalism lack precision and leave the implications of fundamentalist practices unexamined. How can we use the term so that it has analytical meaning and is not merely a label applied by self proclaimed non fundamentalists. In contesting fundamentalism the authors expand the term fundamentalism to include an array of ideological positions in social and cultural movements. Chapters critically investigate the nature of fundamentalism in such diverse areas as economics nationalism aboriginal politics and ethnic gender and religious studies. Examining these areas through the application of a fundamentalist lens presents them in a different light and with greater clarity. Understanding fundamentalism is a necessary undertaking for contesting its claims. These essays invite a multidimensional understanding of who or what may be called fundamentalist and the dilemmas that this naming creates. 176 pp.

Kipling the White man's Burden and U.S. imperialism. 10. Is Iraq another Vietnam. 11. The U.S. Empire Pax Americana or Pox Americana. 12. Empire of Barbarism. 13. The failure of empire. Notes. Index. During the Cold War years mainstream commentators were quick to dismiss the idea that the United States was an imperialist power. Even when U.S. interventions led to the overthrow of popular governments as in Iran Guatemala or the Congo or wholeSale war as in Vietnam this fiction remained intact. During the 1990s and especially since September 11 2001 however it has crumbled. Washington proclaimed the war on terror and invaded Afghanistan and later Iraq making its imperial ambitions clear. Today the need for a U.S. empire is widely defended by mainstream analysts and commentators. John Bellamy Foster's Naked Imperialism examines this important transformation in U.S. global policy and ideology showing the political and economic roots of the new militarism and its consequences both in the global and local context. Foster shows how U.S. led global capitalism is preparing the way for a new age of barbarism and demonstrates the necessity for resistance and solidarity on a global scale. 192 pp.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In this fresh and provocative book, Anthony DiMaggio uses the war in Iraq and the United States confrontations with Iran as his touchstones to probe the sometimes fine line between news and propaganda. Using Antonio Gramsci's concept of hegemony and drawing upon the seminal works of Noam Ch…omsky, Edward Herman, and Robert McChesney, DiMaggio combines a rigorousempirical analysis and clear, lucid prose to enlighten readers about issues essential to the struggle for a critical media and a functioning democracy. If, as DiMaggio shows, our newspapers and television news programs play a decisive role in determining what we think, and if, as he demonstrates convincingly, what the media give us is largely propaganda that supports an oppressive and undemocratic status quo, then it is incumbent upon us to make sure that they are responsive to the majority and not just the powerful and privileged few."

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Lukas is a thinker and critic widely appreciated in cultural and literary studies of the twentieth century. This book considers the nature and development of the novel and anticipates its development. It is an essay of prophetic vision: Lukas writes: anyone who wants to become more intimate…ly acquainted with the prehistory of the important ideologies of the [nineteen-] twenties and thirtieswill be helped by a critical reading of this book. It begins with a comparison of the historic conditions that gave rise to the epic and the novel. In the age of the novel the once known unity between man and his world has been lost and the hero has become an estranged seeker of the meaning of existence. Later Lukas offers a typology of the novel based on whether the hero struggles for a realisation of a meaningful idea, or withdraws from all action. The balance of these extreme forms the third possibility, and each type is exemplified. The book is not a study of artistic technicalities, but of man, history and art tied closely in their development. It is written in a lyrical style well rendered by the translation.- Library Journal Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The introduction explains that this book is meant to follow _Education for a New World_, and it "helps teachers envisage the child's needs after age six." This book is part theory, part history, covering the psychology of the elementary-aged child, the history of life on Earth, and some hig…hlights and principles of the development of civilization. This seems to be motivation and background material for the "great lessons" of the Cosmic Education as commonly used in elementary Montessori curricula. Those seeking an introduction to core Montessori theory, especially relevant to three- to six-year-olds, would be better off turning to _Education for a New World_, or the more demanding _The Absorbent Mind. This book explores the needs of children over age six, delving into psychology, history, and civilization development. It serves as background for the "great lessons" in Montessori education. For core Montessori theory, look to _Education for a New World_ or _The Absorbent Mind_. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Marc Bloch said that his goal in writing Feudal Society was to go beyond the technical study a medievalist would typically write and dismantle a social structure. In this outstanding and monumental work, which has introduced generations of students and historians to the feudal period, Bloch… treats feudalism as living, breathing force in Western Europe from the ninth to the thirteenth century. At its heart lies a magisterial account of relations of lord and vassal, and the origins of the nature of the fief, brought to life through compelling accounts of the nobility, knighthood and chivalry, family relations, political and legal institutions, and the church. For Bloch history was a process of constant movement and evolution and he describes throughout the slow process by which feudal societies turned into what would become nation states. A tour de force of historical writing, Feudal Society is essential reading for anyone interested in both Western Europe's past and present.With a new foreword by Geoffrey KoziolRead more Marc Bloch's "Feudal Society" examines feudalism in Western Europe (9th-13th centuries), focusing on lord-vassal ties, fiefs, nobility, knighthood, chivalry, family bonds, politics, and the church. It highlights the transition to nation-states, essential for understanding Western Europe's history. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Deep inside that T Shirt where we have tried to trap him notes the celebrated Chilean novelist Ariel Dorfman the eyes of Che Guevara are still burning with impatience. Olivier Besancenot and Michael Lowy deftly capture this burning impatience revealing Guevara as a powerful political and ethical thinker still capable of speaking directly to the Challenges of our time. In this masterful new study Besancenot and Lowy explore and situate Guevara's ethical revolutionary and humanist legacy. They explicate Guevara's emphasis on the importance of the individual coming to understand and accept socialism at a personal level. For Guevara Besancenot and Lowy Show the revolutionary project demands more than a transformation of the mode of production it demands a profound transformation of the individual the birth of what Guevara termed the new man. Besancenot and Lowy also explore Guevara's pragmatic approach to the question of state power and unique theoretical contributions to the question of the transition to socialism. 144 pp.

Events belie forecasts the author begins and the French events of the spring of 1968 laid waste the forecasts of sociologists and political scientists throughout the world. In this remarkable analysis Henri Lefebvre took hold of both the immediate importance and the long range significance of the movement which began at Nanterre where he taught sociology at the University of Paris. Professor Lefebvre rehearses for the reader the full sweep of Marxist thinking about social change and investigates carefully and critically the work of Herbert Marcuse in the light of the French explosion. His thought ranges far beyond the streets of Paris taking as the starting point issues raised by the radical student movement and ultimately presenting a significant new theory about the nature of power and politics under condition of modern capitalism. 158 pp.

Paperback. Condizione: As New. New. Contents Preface. Introduction. I. Central and peripheral tributary cultures 1. The formation of tributary ideology in the Mediterranean Region. 2. Tributary culture in other regions of the precapitalist world. II. The culture of capitalism 1. The decline of metaphysics and the reinterpretatio…n of religion. 2. The construction of Eurocentric culture. 3. Marxism and the challenge of actually existing capitalism. 4. The culturalist evasion provincialism and fundamentalism. 5. For a truly universal culture. In this original and provocative essay Samir Amin the author of a number of pathbreaking studies on the structure of the world economy takes on one of the great ideological deformations of our time Eurocentrism. Rejecting the dominant Eurocentric view of world history which narrowly and incorrectly posits a progression from the Greek and Roman classical world to Christian Feudalism and the European capitalist system Amin presents a sweeping reinterpretation that emphasizes the crucial historical role played by the Arab Islamic world. Throughout the work Amin addresses a broad set of concerns ranging for the ideological nature of scholastic metaphysics to the meanings and shortcomings of contemporary Islamic fundamentalism. Consistently subversive of the established pieties of the west this book breaks new theoretical and historiographical ground by outlining a compelling non Eurocentric vision of world history. 152 pp.

Paperback. Condizione: As New. New. Contents Preface. 1. The internationalism of peoples in the twentieth century. 2. New era new challenges. 3. What to do. Appendix 1. Political Islam in the service of imperialism. 2. The Bamako Appeal. Notes. Index. The World We Wish to See presents a sweeping view of twentieth century politic…al history and a stirring appeal to take political organization seriously. Amin offers provocative analysis of contemporary resistance to neoliberalism while boldly calling for a new global movement an internationalism of peoples to challenge the current order and fashion a better world. Throughout the last century great revolutions the community and socialist internationals and National Liberation Movements presented a serious challenge to global capital. Neoliberalism and the U.S. Drive for military hegemony have given rise to new political and social movements and new attempts at International Organizations such as the World Social Forum. Amin maps these oppositional formations new and old critically assessing their potential and limitations for the revolutionary project today. Included in this volume is the full text of the Bamako Appeal described as a Communist Manifesto for our age and Amin's provocative new essay Political Islam in the Service of Imperialism. Amin's masterful analysis offers new ground for realizing the world we wish to see. 144 pp.
