George Orwell's moving reflections on the English character and his passionate belief in the need for political change. 'The Lion and the Unicorn' was written in London during the worst period of the Blitz. It is vintage Orwell, a dynamic outline of his belief in socialism, patriotism and an English revolution. His fullest political statement, it has been described as 'one of the most moving and incisive portraits of the English character' and is as relevant now as it ever has been.

Se trata de un manifiesto encargado por la Liga de los Comunistas a Karl Marx y Friedrich Engels entre 1847 y 1848, y publicado por primera vez en Londres el 21 de febrero de 1848. Se trata de un texto temprano de Marx y Engels, en el que se reflejan ya las bases del marxismo, incluyendo la concepción materialista de la historia.

As we emerge (though perhaps only temporarily) from the pandemic, other crises move center stage: outrageous inequality, climate disaster, desperate refugees, mounting tensions of a new cold war. The abiding motif of our time is relentless chaos.

Since 1949, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has maintained unrivalled control over the country, persisting even in the face of economic calamity, widespread social upheaval, and violence against its own people. Yet the party does not sustain dominance through repressive tactics alone - it pairs this with surprising responsiveness to the public. The Party and the People explores how this paradox has helped the CCP endure for decades, and how this balance has shifted increasingly toward repression under the rule of President Xi Jinping.

Die Antideutschen sind eine kleine, aber schrille Politsekte, die so weit links ist, dass sie schon wieder rechts angelangt ist. Einige waren mal Funktionäre von K-Gruppen, andere kommen vom Schwarzen Block oder sind bloß Anti-Ostdeutsche, die Kleinbürger verachten. Sie haben viele Sympathisanten in den Medien. Das verleiht ihnen mehr Einfluss, als für Deutschland gut ist. Eva Schweitzer zeigt die Ursprünge dieser Ideologie in den USA auf, und legt den schädlichen Einfluss der Antideutschen offen und erklärt, wer hinter diesem Phänomen steckt.

Exploring the meanings and powers of love from ancient Greece to the present day, Richard Gilman-Opalsky argues that what is called “love” by the best thinkers who have approached the subject is in fact the beating heart of communism - understood as a way of living, not as a form of government. Along the way, he reveals with clarity that the capitalist way of assigning value to things is incapable of appreciating what humans value most.

Why Political Democracy Must Go is an insightful analysis of the origins of the socialist movement in the United States, written by famed journalist John Reed, one of the most distinguished American writers on the subject. Although one of socialism’s fiercest proponents, Reed exposes the myth of "democratic socialism" by providing an overview of the development of socialist thought in America. His devastating critique of political democracy argues that socialism cannot be achieved through democratic means.

In this timely and explosive book, philosopher and YouTuber Jonas Čeika (a.k.a. Cuck Philosophy) reinvigorates socialism for the 21st century. Leaving behind its past associations with bureaucracy and state tyranny, and its lifeless and drab theoretical accounts, Čeika instead uses the works of Marx and Nietzsche to reconnect socialism with its human element, presenting it as something not only affecting, but created by living, breathing, suffering human individuals.

Lockdown is a terrifying story of not only the chaotic freefall of American freedoms during the opening stages of the COVID pandemic, but the dangerous growth of government power that continues today. Lockdown is a warning that the extraordinary powers invoked by left-wing Democrats and others, justified by claims of public health and safety, have begun the unravelling of America’s constitutional order and our most cherished freedoms. Using COVID-19 as a cover, Democrat leaders and their bureaucratic health advisers seized powers the Constitution never gave them.

Socialism is fatally flawed because it bets on the proverbial rabbit to eat the fox the 101st time when the fox has eaten the rabbit the last 100 times. Socialism has failed their countries 100 out of 100 times based on one single foundational error: People will work as hard, often, and long for a collective as they would work for themselves personally. Never happened. Never will happen.

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is a highly secretive totalitarian state - and one that poses an increasing threat to the West due to its rapidly expanding nuclear weapons programme. This unique three-part collection takes an in-depth look at the country, encompassing its history, the human stories behind the regime and its possible future.

Coming of age in America in the 1970s and 80s, Joe Weisberg was a Cold Warrior. After briefly studying Russian in Leningrad, he joined the CIA in 1990 - just in time to watch the Soviet Union collapse. But less than a decade after the first Cold War ended, a new one broke out. Russia changed in many of the ways that America hoped it might - more capitalist, more religious, more open to Western ideas. But US sanctions have crippled Russia's economy; and Russia's interventions have exacerbated political problems in America.

Karl Marx / Friedrich Engels - "Das kommunistische Manifest". Die industrielle Revolution verursachte eine massive Landflucht. Unzählige Menschen aus bäuerlichen Verhältnissen versuchten ihr Glück als Arbeiter in den Städten, gehen dort jedoch in äußerst prekären Verhältnissen unter. Das Massenelend der Arbeiterklasse führte zum Aufkommen sozialistischer, bzw. kommunistischer Ideen in der ersten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts und die beiden deutschen Philosophen Karl Marx und Friedrich Engels verfassten ihr bis heute vielbeachtetes Werk "Das kommunistische Manifest".

Este texto siempre fue considerado por Simone Weil como su obra principal. En 1940, cuando pensaba irse de Francia, le escribió a un amigo para hacerle saber que le concedía un valor particular. Aunque fue escrito hace cerca de medio siglo, este ensayo llama la atención por su inmediata actualidad. Tras leer el manuscrito, Alain (Émile Chartier) le escribió a la autora: "Su trabajo es de la mayor importancia" y forma parte de esos pocos trabajos que abren "el futuro próximo" y preparan la "auténtica Revolución".

These 12 half-hour lessons shed intriguing light on a revolutionary movement that played an outsized role in the 20th century and continues to shape 21st-century geopolitics.

Much has been written about the anatomy of revolution from Edmund Burke to Crane Brinton Crane, Franz Fanon, and contemporary theorists of revolution found in the modern academy. Yet what is missing is a dissection of the revolutionary minds that destroyed the old for the creation of a more harmful new. Revolutionary Monsters presents a collective biography of five modern-day revolutionaries who came into power calling for the liberation of the people only to end up killing millions of people in the name of revolution.

Tema fra i più spinosi e discussi nella storia dell'Ilalia repubblicana, il rapporto tra il Pci e l'Unione Sovietica negli anni della guerra e del primo dopoguerra è affrontato qui a partire da un'ampia documentazione di parte sovietica: soprattutto dai resoconti degli incontri di Togliatti e degli altri dirigenti del Pci con l'ambasciatore sovietico emerge un quadro stupefacente dell'allineamento del partito italiano agli obiettivi della politica estera sovietica.

This essay collection from renowned journalist and novelist Slavenka Drakulic, which quickly became a modern (and feminist) classic, draws back the Iron Curtain for a glimpse at the lives of Eastern European women under Communist regimes. Provocative, often witty, and always intensely personal, How We Survived Communism and Even Laughed cracks open a paradoxical world that through its rejection of capitalism and commoditization ends up fetishizing both.

¿Quién es Hugo Chávez: un combativo y avanzado líder político, artífice del "socialismo del siglo XXI", o un estereotipado aprendiz de dictador, populista y palabrero? ¿Qué es Venezuela: el laboratorio de la primera revolución del nuevo milenio o una nación que marcha, no sin resistencias civiles, hacia un duradero régimen autoritario?
