In the Steps of Rosa Luxemburg: Selected Writings of Paul Levi
ISBN: 9789004196070 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Paul Levi remains one of the most interesting and controversial figures in the early history of the Communist movement. As leader of the KPD after the murder of Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht, he successfully built up a party of a third of a million members, but by 1921 Comintern pressure for 'Bolshevisation' forced Levi's resignation and expulsion. Until his early death in 1930 he remained 'a revolutionary socialist of the Rosa Luxemburg school' (Carl von Ossietsky), and was described by Albert Einstein as 'one of the wisest, most just and courageous persons I have come across'.

Impersonal Power: History and Theory of the Bourgeois State
ISBN: 9789004130272 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 804 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The point of departure of Heide Gerstenberger's path-breaking work is a critique of structural-functionalist theory of the state, in both its modernisation theory and materialist variants. Prof. Gerstenberger opposes to these a historical-theoretical explanation that proceeds from the long-term structuring effect of concrete social practice. This is elucidated by detailed investigation of the development of bourgeois state power in the two key examples of England and France. The different complexions that the bourgeois state assumed are presented as the results of processes of social and...

In the Radical Camp: A Political Autobiography 1890-1921
ISBN: 9789004323186 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Paul Frölich was a key figure in the formative years of German Communism. From a working-class family, he was active in the Social Democratic Party from the late 1890s, a left radical opposed to the First World War, and a founder member of the KPD. His previously unpublished memoir, only recently discovered, casts valuable new light on a key period, particularly the Comintern intervention that led to the disastrous ‘March action’ of 1921. The text on which the present, slightly abridged edition is based was originally published in German as Im radikalen Lager: Politische...

The End of Jewish Modernity
ISBN: 9780745336619 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Jewish modernity flourished between the age of Enlightenment and World War II and in fact was a major driver of intellectual, scientific, social, literary, and artistic progress in that period. But the age of Jewish modernity is over.
That s the argument that historian Enzo Traverso mounts in this provocative book. With great sensitivity and nuance, he teases out the fundamentally conservative turn that the mainstream of Jewish thought has taken in the years since World War II, revealing its roots in the Holocaust and the establishment of the United Nations and Israel as the new poles of...

ISBN: 9780853159001 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

Her assistant and friend, Mathilde Jacob, was Luxemburg's mainstay during her years of imprisonment in World War I. Jacob provided material and emotional support, organized Rosa Luxemburg's clandestine communication with the outside world, and herself played a key role in the illegal work of the Spartacus group.

Exploring Marx's Capital: Philosophical, Economic and Political Dimensions
ISBN: 9789004149373 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume, originally published in French under the title Que faire du Capital?, offers a new interpretation of Marx's great work. It shows how the novelty and lasting interest of Marx's theory arises from the fact that, as against the project of a 'pure' economics, it is formulated in concepts that have simultaneously an economic and a political aspect, neither of these being separable from the other. Jacques Bidet conducts an unprecedented investigation of Marx's work in the spirit of the history of science, exploring it as a process of theoretical development. Traditional...
