Die Neue Zeit

This chump is still trolling your VB?

That doesn't work, it just wants you to download some proprietary software and in the end doesn't have it. I have already searched for the book extensively through.. other means and it doesn't seem to be anywhere. Same with the German Revolution, 1917-1923. That is available in some places, but requires a paid account.

That's a brilliant idea about the London drivers, running buses but not collecting fare. I fucking love it comrade. Nice one

I look forward to finally getting access to Lenin Rediscovered, which shall be ordered alongside the new translation of Kautsky's The Road to Power. It really amazes me how one could read What is to be done, be a left communist, and consider themselves to be the ideological heirs of Lenin.

I have been acquiring many books lately, but many of them are time sensitive(out of print, rare books), which unfortunately gives them a higher priority. I had no idea Plekhanov wrote so much. His five volumes of selected works amount to approximately 3,500 pages. Unfortunately, I doubt it would be of much interest to you as his writings mainly lie in the methodological and philosophical dimensions of Marxism.

I have heard that Lars Lih is working on another Kautsky-Lenin work. I look forward to seeing that, but I hope this one manages to make its way to online, PDF book stores.

There is much to like about Lenin, but it's a shame and a very practical problem that his foundations such as Kautsky and Plekhanov are ignored. In a way, it's kind of amazing considering how much Lenin quotes Kautsky and Lassalle in his arguments against economism. You'd practically have to be willfully blind.

How did Lassalle fade into obscurity so quickly? In 1910 he was praised as a flawed, but constructive figure in the evolution of communism; not too many years later he was being put on the same level as Gorbachev.

One book was polemical in nature, the other was a collection of Lenin's anti-Trotsky works. There are three volumes: Against Trotskyism; Lenin and the Bolshevik Party's Struggle against Trotskyism, 1903-1917. There is an Against Trotskyism Part II which goes up to 1940, but it's eluded my search. It's amazing what people can come up with when they have accredited scholars workers on things instead of people on the internet with too much time to spare.

I've been collecting english works published by the Soviet Union, and recently acquired two works on the subject of anti-Trotskyism. You might be amused that one of the arguments they used against him was that he was a fan of Kautsky and Lassalle. Strange considering Lenin had positive things to say about both.

Oh, okay. I already joined but haven't really looked at anything. Lol

Hello, Ghost Bebel. The ICC translated the 1927 platform of the Decists into English in the brochure you mentioned. It's quite long it seems. There were some letters recovered from the state archives, written by the Decists to each other when they were already expelled from the party, the translations are listed here: http://www.leftcom.org/en/forum/2011...communist-left

On Under the Banner of Marxism these are some translations:

And now I'm busy with one about the reclaiming forgotten French political economists in Smith's tradition.
