The final work of Domenico Losurdo, one of the foremost philosophers and historians of Marxism of the modern era. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘘𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯: 𝘏𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘍𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘯 𝘐𝘥𝘦𝘢 continues and develops the critique that began in 𝘞𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘯 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘹𝘪𝘴𝘮: 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘉𝘰𝘳𝘯, 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘵 𝘋𝘪𝘦𝘥, 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘵 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘣𝘦 𝘙𝘦𝘣𝘰𝘳𝘯 2025).

In the wake of the USSR’s dissolution, Marxism, in particular the variant Losurdo identifies as “Western Marxism,” has entered a seemingly irreversible crisis. Persuasively arguing that this outcome is not inevitable, Losurdo undertakes a non-apologetic historical and philosophical evaluation of the Soviet experience and of Marxism in its entirety. Extending the inquiry, and with an eye on contemporary developments such as Marxist theory and practice in the People’s Republic of China, Losurdo assesses the theoretical and practical prospects Marxism retains and asks what it can build in the future. ~ Iskra Books
