Publisher's Synopsis
""Communism: A World Menace"" is a book written by John F. Cronin that provides a comprehensive analysis of the ideology and political system of communism. The book explores the history of communism, its theoretical underpinnings, and its impact on the world. Cronin examines the origins of communism in the writings of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, and traces its development through the Russian Revolution, the rise of the Soviet Union, and the spread of communist movements throughout the world. He analyzes the key features of communist ideology, such as the abolition of private property, the centralization of power, and the goal of achieving a classless society. The book also explores the impact of communism on international relations, including the Cold War, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. Throughout the book, Cronin argues that communism is a dangerous and destructive ideology that poses a threat to individual freedom, democracy, and human rights. He concludes by calling for a renewed commitment to democratic values and the rejection of communist ideology.
