What is to be Done? - New Times and the Anniversary of a Question (Hardcover)

This text provides a critical assessment of the theory and practice of revolution at the start of the 21st century. It shows the pertinence of revolution in our post-socialist world and provides a focus for critical social inquiry, revealing the significance of the theory of revolution and its practical meaning. By identifying the weaknesses of orthodox accounts into social and political change, it offers a timely reassessment of the left-communist critique of Leninism and shows its contemporary relevance. Against the background of the globalization of capital, anti-capitalism has to dream revolution. This volume shows the practical and theoretical meaning of this dream: the society of the free and equal.
