Informationen zum Autor Sebastian Budgen, Stathis Kouvelakis, and Slavoj Žižek, eds. Klappentext At a time when few people seriously consider alternatives to global capitalism, this work argues that Lenin demonstrates the inseparability of truth and partisanship (the taking of sides), an argument liberal leftists must hear now. Zusammenfassung Explains that it was Lenin who made Karl Marx's thought explicitly political! who extended it beyond the confines of Europe! who put it into practice. This title demonstrates that truth and partisanship are not mutually exclusive as is often suggested.
