Bolshevism at a Deadlock was written Karl Kautsky, one of the leading Marxist intellectuals of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, in response to the catastrophic failures of Stalin's first Five Year Plan, which was intended to raise Russian industry and productivity to equal that of Western Europe. Kautsky sets out to demonstrate how the repressive autocracy of the Bolsheviks and the disregard for economic exigencies achieved nothing more than "the wholesale pauperisation and degradation of the Russian people", and prophesies the imminent collapse of Soviet Russia in the face...

Die Vorstellung einer besseren Gesellschaft pragt die Menschheit seit jeher: Geld ohne Arbeit, allgemeiner Wohlstand statt Armut, paradiesischer Frieden statt Krieg. In seinem unvergleichlichen Werk Utopia" entwirft Thomas Morus eine Gegenwelt zum dusteren England des 16. Jahrhunderts und begrundete so ein neues literarisches Genre: Die literarische Utopie. Der Philosoph und Marxist Karl Kautsky untersucht hier das fruhe Aufkommen kapitalistischer Strukturen und widmet sich der wohl detailliertesten Analyse des Werkes Thomas Morus', des utopischen Sozialisten.""
