Excerpts from section five of Chapter Two appeared in different years, mostly between 1872-1875 in papers such as La Emancipacion, Der Volksstaat, Social-Demokrat, and others.

Journalist Joanna Lillis paints a vibrant picture of this emerging nation through vivid reportage based on seventeen years of on-the-ground coverage.

Come il benessere ha impedito all'Occidente di vedere dieci anni fa l'arrivo di una profonda crisi finanziaria, così oggi sembra che un lungo periodo di pace abbia cancellato la memoria delle tragedie del Novecento e i sacrifici per la democrazia. In queste pagine Federico Fubini e Ivan Krastev riflettono sul grande rischio che corre quell'impero diviso che è oggi l'Unione europea: spaccato fra ricchi e poveri, fra sicuri e insicuri, orientali e occidentali, meridionali e nordici.

Written in 1916 against the backdrop of the First World War, Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism explains the flaws and power of capitalism, which inevitably lead to monopolies, imperialism and colonialism. Lenin develops Marx’s theories of political economy, which had been put forward 50 years earlier in Das Kapital. He goes on to argue that imperialism is the most advanced state of capitalism, characterised by the domination of monopolies on an international scale, with the export of capital leading to the big imperialist powers carving up the world.

Das "Ich" ist politisch nicht im Trend. Wer sich zur individuellen Freiheit als Ideal bekennt, steht schnell im Verdacht des rücksichtslosen Egoismus.

"Questa è una storia parziale e non ha la pretesa di ricostruire alla perfezione gli accadimenti storici. È una storia d'amore personale, a tratti assai stramba e picaresca, che però somiglia a quella di tanti altri. Una storia, quella del comunismo italiano, tanto forte da far tremare i polsi." Sergio Staino è uno dei più importanti vignettisti italiani.

Marxism is the most evil, deadly, totalitarian philosophy of government in history. Marxist governments are estimated to have murdered more than 100 million of their own citizens to purge even potential nonconformists just in the 20th century alone. Yet Marxist propaganda is widely lauded and promoted in American schools and universities by the media, entertainment, and even representatives of our own government.

Capital is currently cannibalizing every sphere of life-guzzling wealth from nature and racialized populations, sucking up our ability to care for each other, and gutting the practice of politics. In this tightly argued and urgent volume, leading Marxist feminist theorist Nancy Fraser charts the voracious appetite of capital, tracking it from crisis point to crisis point, from ecological devastation to the collapse of democracy, from racial violence to the devaluing of care work.

Pero no pasarán…" Aquel legendario llamamiento por radio del 19 de julio de 1936 convirtió a Dolores Ibárruri, a la sazón diputada del Frente Popular por Asturias, en el símbolo universal de la resistencia republicana frente al fascismo. Mario Amorós ha escrito un relato biográfico riguroso y sobre todo necesario de una de las grandes figuras del movimiento obrero y comunista internacional.

If you like the idea of such outcomes, then come along for an exploration of how we can change women's lives for the better.

"El hombre nace libre y, sin embargo, por todas partes se encuentra encadenado." En El contrato social, Rousseau explora el concepto de libertad y las estructuras políticas que pueden permitir que las personas la adquieran. Argumenta que el poder soberano de un estado no reside en ningún gobernante sino en la voluntad de la población en general. Rousseau argumenta que el estado ideal sería una democracia directa donde la toma de decisiones ejecutivas la llevan a cabo ciudadanos reunidos en asamblea, como lo harían en la antigua ciudad-estado de Atenas.
