Book Synopsis You Don't Know What You Think You "Know" About... The Communist Revolution and the REAL Path to Emancipation: Its History and Our Future by : Raymond Lotta
Download or read book You Don't Know What You Think You "Know" About... The Communist Revolution and the REAL Path to Emancipation: Its History and Our Future written by Raymond Lotta. This book was released on 2014-03-21. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes on and refutes the conventional wisdom that communist revolution has been a disaster and nightmare. In a wide-ranging, provocative, and richly detailed interview, Raymond Lotta, a political economist and expert in the history of communism, guides the reader through the “first wave” of socialist revolutions: the Paris Commune of 1871, the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917-56, and the Chinese revolution of 1949-76. This is the real history and a penetrating analysis of what these revolutions and their leadership actually set out to do, the liberating economic, social, and cultural transformations brought about, and the shortcomings as well. How did the lives of women radically change? How did revolution attack the oppression of minority nationalities? This book will show you. It also sails straight into the face of controversy. It addresses the important historical role of Stalin, the slanders directed at the Great Leap Forward and Mao’s Cultural Revolution in China, and the wrong ways that people in U.S. society have been trained to think about society, the world, and revolution. Lotta examines why these revolutions ultimately met defeat. But he also explains why it is possible, drawing the right lessons, to go further and do better in a new stage of revolution. In this, he introduces the reader to Bob Avakian’s new synthesis of communism. At once rigorous and accessible, the book is an unparalleled resource. The world cries out for fundamental change—yet people are told there is no alternative. Raymond Lotta makes the case that “the whole history of communism thus far shows that the world does not have to be this way.”

Book Synopsis Challengers to Capitalism by : John G. Gurley
Download or read book Challengers to Capitalism written by John G. Gurley. This book was released on 1976. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Back Cover: A nonpolemical examination of the three giants of Marxism-a movement that has spread in only sixty years to encompass one-third of the world, yet is little understood by most Americans. Dr. Gurley, former managing editor of the American Economic Review and vice president of the American Economic Association, provides perhaps the clearest summary of dialectical materialism ever published. In a penetrating analysis, he relates Marx the theoretician, Lenin the revolutionary, and Mao the society builder to each other in terms of the development of Marxian thought and the historical forces stemming from it. At a time when millions of Americans are wondering about the long-term future of world capitalism, Dr. Gurley offers his own thoughtful and provocative predictions.

Book Synopsis Mao's Road to Power by : Zedong Mao
Download or read book Mao's Road to Power written by Zedong Mao. This book was released on 1992. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was during the period from 1942 to 1945, the subject of this eighth volume in the 10-volume translation of Mao Zedong's writings through 1949, that Mao asserted his status as the incarnation and symbol of the Chinese Revolution and the sinification of Marxism-Leninism. At the same time, with the tide of war turning against the Axis powers, both Mao and Chiang Kaishek maneuvered for advantage in asserting control over postwar China. Mao developed a model for a new China built on several pillars: the absolute authority of the Party and its supreme leader; "rectification" study and criticism in the party and the army; mass campaigns; and a clear "story" of salvation--for China and for the individual--wrapped up in Mao's personal experience and his writings. The readings in this volume develop the themes of this "Yan'an way," which--along with brilliant soldiering--brought Mao and the Chinese Communist Party to the brink of national power in 1945.
