About this title

Synopsis

Bernie Sanders ignited excitement in American Politics. Across the country people were praising or slurring this new (or not so new) way of approaching government. However, one question was left unanswered: what is socialism? There is great confusion in the United States about what socialism is and why people love or hate it. This book sets out to explore socialism's historic roots, different experiments in socialism, and how it can be applied today. Topics covered are the following: - what are the different branches of socialism, such as Marxism, Anarchism, or Communism? - Why did some experiments in socialism fail, and why have we not heard about the ones that have succeeded? - What is a path to socialism in America, and what do different socialist parties believe? This book will generate fresh conversation about a topic that is both timely and important.
