State Capitalism and World Revolution by Raya Dunayevskaya (English) Paperback B

Description: State Capitalism and World Revolution by Raya Dunayevskaya, CLR James, Grace Lee Boggs Over sixty years ago, C.L.R. James and a small circle of collaborators making up the radical left Johnson-Forest Tendency reached the conclusion that there was no true socialist society existing anywhere in the world. Written in collaboration with Raya Dunayevskaya and Grace Lee Boggs, this is another pioneering critique of Lenin and Trotsky, and reclamation of Marx, from the West Indian scholar and activist, C.L.R. James. Originally published in 1950, this definitive edition includes the original preface from Martin Glaberman to the third edition, C.L.R. James original introductions to three previous editions and a new introduction from James biographer Paul Buhle. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography C. L. R.

Review "When one looks back over the last twenty years to those men who were most far-sighted, who first began to tease out the muddle of ideology in our times, who were at the same time Marxists with a hard theoretical basis, and close students of society, humanists with a tremendous response to and understanding of human culture, Comrade James is one of the first one thinks of." --E.P.
