Opis

The idea of socialism has given normative grounding and orientation to the outrage over capitalism for more than 150 years, and yet today it seems to have lost much of its appeal. Despite growing discontent, many would hesitate to invoke socialism when it comes to envisioning life beyond capitalism.

Recenzje

A lucid and compelling case for renewing the utopian impulse of the early Marx in the context of the present.
