Description for Socialism without the State
Hardback. Focusing on socialism as it has been practised in recent years, this text examines the serious set-backs that face its existence, particularly following events in Eastern Europe. The author argues that it is totalitarianism which is being rejected and not socialism as it was originally conceived. Num Pages: 222 pages, biography. BIC Classification: HBG; HBLW3; JPA; JPFF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 216 x 140 x 15. Weight in Grams: 435.
The revolutions that have recently occurred in Eastern Europe have been seen by some as heralding the death of socialism. Evan Luard argues, in this new edition of his book, that those revolutions demonstrated the failure not of socialism, which were never practised in those states, but of state socialism, a perversion of the doctrine which, for nearly a century, has distorted its true meaning in East and West Europe alike.
