Publisher's Synopsis
For decades, Marxism was declared to be dead. However, as the crisis of capitalism deepens, events are proving every day the vitality and correctness of these ideas. Scientific Socialism, as developed by Marx, Engels, Lenin and Trotsky, stands alone in offering an explanation to the impasse facing humanity, as well as the way forward. However, no body of ideas have faced such relentless slander and distortion, by both its enemies as well as by many of its alleged proponents. To really understand Marxism, therefore, one must go to the source. After all, no one has explained these ideas better than these great revolutionaries. Featuring The Communist Manifesto (Marx and Engels); Socialism: Utopian and Scientific (Engels); The State and Revolution (Lenin); The Transitional Programme (Trotsky)
