{"product_id":"polemics-in-marxist-philosophy","title":"Polemics in Marxist Philosophy","description":"Used paperback in Very Good condition. \"In these essays, George Novack defends scientific socialism--the generalization of the historic line of march of the working class. First advanced by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels, it is the toilers' most powerful weapon to use in the fight for a world based on cooperative labor and human solidarity. Novack explains why the materialist foundations and dialectical methods of Marxism offer the only scientific basis for working-class political action. In doing so, he answers those in the twentieth century who--parading as the true interpreters of Marx--have provided a \"philosophical\" veneer for the anti-working-class political course of Stalinist and social democratic misleaderships around the world. A longtime leader of the Socialist Workers Party of the United States until his death in 1992, Novack defends the theoretical legacy of Engels, George Plekhanov, Leon Trotsky, V.I. Lenin, and others who not only popularized Marxism but developed and applied it in practice in order to build an international communist movement and advance the world struggle for socialism.\" --","brand":"George Novack","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":53874709725467,"sku":"mon0000799795","price":15.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/4004\/3291\/files\/27378623482498.jpg?v=1788508846","url":"https:\/\/bookalley.com\/products\/polemics-in-marxist-philosophy","provider":"Book Alley","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
