Marxism: An Historical and Critical Study

Here we get epigraphic stress on the importance of the particular social reality of the 1848 bourgeois revolution...expanded chiefly with snippets from Hobsbawn et al. One could forgive the fatigued recapitulation of the pre-Marxist period, given Lichtheim's Origins of Socialism; but the whole book is flaccidly incoherent in its ramblings from Marxist theory to early Russian socialism, British & continental leftist alignments since 1848, Soviet Communism & the contemporary left. Lichtheim is vulnerable on many points, from value theory to Trotskyism. Judged by its intention to provide general background & signposts for further study, the book's manner is both randomly over-detailed & simplistic. The student needs to have read, say, Lichtheim's Marxism (also a far better book} in order to begin to understand comments like "Liebknecht was a Kantian, not a Marxist, in philosophy." Lichtheim sometimes dismisses or begs just the questions which need further study, e.g. the German Communists' failure in the early '30's. Both specialists & students will suffer from the lack of a distinct, developed thesis about the Social Democrats.

Origins of Socialism (Goldbacks)

Praeger

The great upheavals of the twentieth century have completely altered the shape of Europe, and Europe’s role in international affairs. George Lichtheim analyses the profound changes in intellectual, artistic and religious awareness which were both cause and consequence of the decay of traditional bourgeois-liberal culture. Factors such as nationalism, socialism, the European civil war between communist and fascist movements after 1919, and the decline of the nation state are interwoven with concerns such as changes in the quality of life and the rise of technocratic forms of government to create a compelling and comprehensive account of European civilisation between 1900 and 1970. First published in 1972 as part of Weidenfeld &amp; Nicolson’s History of Civilisation series.
