Produktbeschreibung
Essays in Socialism: New and Old is a collection of essays written by Ernest Belfort Bax, a prominent British socialist and feminist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book was first published in 1906 and contains a series of essays that explore various aspects of socialism, including its history, philosophy, and political implications.The essays in this book cover a wide range of topics, including the origins of socialism, the relationship between socialism and democracy, the role of the state in a socialist society, and the challenges facing the socialist movement in the early 20th century. Bax also examines the works of prominent socialist thinkers such as Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, and William Morris, and offers his own critiques and interpretations of their ideas.One of the key themes of the book is the tension between the traditional Marxist vision of socialism as a revolutionary movement aimed at overthrowing capitalism and the more gradualist approach advocated by some socialists in the early 20th century. Bax argues that while socialism must ultimately aim at the abolition of capitalism, it is also important to work within existing political structures to achieve incremental reforms that improve the lives of working people.Overall, Essays in Socialism: New and Old provides a comprehensive overview of the socialist movement in the early 20th century, as well as a thoughtful analysis of the key issues and debates within the movement. It remains an important work for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of socialism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
