Paul Mattick

[Искра]

I’m planning to start reading Paul Mattick. What would you list as his “key works”? I read only one article called “Council Communism” and I’m planning to translate it in Croatian (btw. does somebody maybe know some better short text on that subject?)


I found one book with his essays translated on Croatian (in 80’s). Most of his essays are economically, for example: one against Samuelson and his interpretation of Marx

The Permanent Crisis from 1934, Marx and Keynes from 1969, Crises and Theory of Crises....a lot of this stuff can be found on the marxists.org site. There is also the book Anti-Bolshevik Communism which is important for his political outlook, his views on Lenin and Luxemburg, the Russian revolution, etc.

there is also Mattick's critique of Marcuse

"Reform or Revolution" is a good read.
