Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. 2ème Édition. Paris 2000. 1 Volume/1. -- As New -- Softbound . 21 x 15 cm. -------- 160 pages . ******************* "" Lenin affirmed that without a revolutionary theory, there can be no revolutionary movement. His statement seems simple, but, in reality, it is anything but that since the revolutionary theory is more complex than it may seem to a formal reading of Lenin s political texts. Leninist theory is, precisely, the outcome of a profound scientific analysis of social reality. And, at the same time, it is a class instrument for acting in a historically determined society s economic structures and political superstructures. If we study the Leninist concept of the party, we immediately find ourselves faced with revolutionary theory as Marxist science. That is, we are faced with the issue of the scientific foundations of political action. In other words, it is not possible to understand the Leninist concept of the party unless one understands the entire scientific analysis of the economic structure that constitutes in Marx and Lenin its base. Removed from its scientific platform, the Leninist concept of the party would appear to be a monument perhaps even a gigantic one to political will. It would be a monument to the theory of power, to the theory of organization, but it would be a monument without a pedestal. This explains why formal acceptance of some Leninist theses still d s not represent the assimilation of the revolutionary theory. That is, it d s not represent assimilation of the general scientific concept that is Leninism s foundation. Consequently, the Leninist concept of the party is the result of a Marxist economic analysis and without applying this latter, we cannot reach even on an organizational level the former. Even Lenin s life story as a Marxist illustrates this dialectical path. Hence, the problem to face the entire issue of how to assimilate the revolutionary theory. Class Struggles and the Revolutionary Party is the result of an investigation into these problems. "" ******************** ref od.

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. 2ème Édition. Paris 2006. 1 Volume/1. -- -- As New -- Softbound . 21 x 15 cm. -------- 304 pages . ******************* "" This work is a methodological development running in parallel with the analysis of the Italian standing "imbalance", as it was investigated in "The Uneven Political Development". As is written in the Introduction, this book collects Cervetto's reflections on the materialist conception of politics in 1977-81 and 1984-89. It is the theoretical side of a strategic issue. It was necessary to underline the dialectical character in the structure/superstructure relationship through a sharp criticism of both mechanism which reduces political analysis to econometric evaluations and the idea of the primacy of politics which takes no account of the actual economic determination. The connection with the sound foundations of Marx and Engels's thought is shown in illuminating and less-known passages quoted from their works, as well as from Lenin's. This is the basis whereupon a comparison with Eduard Bernstein's liberal arguments, Heinrich Cunow's revisionist ideas, Lev Trotsky's tacticalism between the two world wars, Hans Kelsen's normative approach, and Pëtr Struve's objectivism can be drawn effectively. The investigation into the actual characters of democracy in the imperialist epoch marks this book throughout and accounts for its extreme up-to-dateness in a critical stage of the best possible "political shell" for capitalism.

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. 2ème Édition. Paris 2003. 1 Volume/1. -- -- As New -- Softbound . 21 x 15 cm. -------- 160 pages . ******************* "" With regard to man as a biological individual, time is set by the experience of generations childhood, adolescence, youth, middle age, and old age succeed each other and provide time with a rhythm. Tragic events, whether individual or collective, can take place, socio-economic changes can extend the average life (as occurred in the 20th century), but in any case the significance of biological time is a stable element. Political time, on the contrary, is a historical time subject to the dialectics of accelerations and decelerations. "There are days that are worth twenty years Cervetto reminds us, citing Marx and yet, in the movement of matter, one day is one day." The strategic divide of 1989, that sanctioned the end of the East-European State-capitalist regimes that had been passed off as socialism, was a remarkable evidence thereof. Biological time and historical time merge in the psychologies of the individuals who are the protagonists of class struggle. This is difficult terrain, because it is subject to the inevitable commingling of rationality and emotions. A revolutionary, a Marxist, anticipates the paces of social changes in his heart. It should not surprise, therefore, that the class movement, through the voice and understanding of its best representatives, has often imagined faster paces than the actual ones. At the end of the 19th century, during a phase of full capitalist expansion, August Bebel did not realize it, and affirmed at the convention of the Social-Democratic party in Erfurt (1891): "Indeed, I am convinced the realization of our goals is so close at hand that few of you in this hall will not live to see it." Science only can emancipate us from the ascendancy of present time, that almost inevitably leads to mistakes about the reality of today perceived as absolute reality, independent of any evolution and thence prepares the disappointments of tomorrow. This emancipation, this freedom, ds not pursue any abstractly predicted aims, but practical objectives. Cervetto wrote: "Revolutionary strategy is based on the analysis of times, not to arrange the future, a task for which an objective real movement dsn't have any need, but rather to establish time deadlines that can act as references in defining immediate tasks in the present, the tasks of tactics. () Tactics address temporary situations that are multi-faceted combinations, to take up Lenin's definition, of long-term historical processes." The more solid the strategy, the more flexible can tactics be. The 'question of times' finds its place in practice, in the daily struggle: "Science is freedom, and it is such because it is not a theory detached from practice. Instead, it is practice guided by theory."****************** ref od.

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris 2014. 1 Volume/1. -- -- As New -- Softbound . 21 x 15 cm. -------- 728 pages . ******************* "" This book is a collection of the analyses of international relations made by Arrigo Cervetto during the first thirty years of his activity as a militant revolutionary. This great analytical work is the outcome of the political battle that Cervetto fought during those years to restore Leninism to Italy, and cannot be separated from his particular interpretation of Lenin's political legacy. For Cervetto, and for the small group of revolutionaries that gather round him after the Second World War, this return to Lenin is the indispensable prerequisite for the formulation of a revolutionary strategy. In other words, via Leninism, these militants aspire to raise the communist movement out of the abyss the Fascist, Stalinist and Social-Democratic counterrevolution had cast it into. The title of this book picks up a concept, that of «unitary imperialism» in fact, which had been worked out starting from the internationalist debate of the early '50s. From a political point of view, asserting the existence of «unitary imperialism» at that moment in history meant saying above all that one attributed to the ussr, as well as to all the so-called «socialist camp», the same social nature as its opposing Western «capitalist camp». Internationalism thus found a solid theoretical base, but the concept of «unitary imperialism» gs much further than its occasional use in the political struggle against Stalinism. In his effort to link up with the essence of the Leninist conception of the revolutionary party, Arrigo Cervetto finds the central core of the continuity between Marx and Lenin in the concept of socio-economic formation. Cervetto demonstrates that this scientific acquisition of Marx's is the starting point of Lenin's elaboration and gs so far as to maintain, and to prove, that the Leninist Party is the solution to the problems posed by "Capital", that «the party [is] the apotheosis of Marxist science». The great mass of the material collected in these volumes testifies to Arrigo Cervetto's commitment to his effort to put his conception of the party and the revolutionary struggle into practice."" ***************** ref od.

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. 2ème Édition. Paris 2016. 1 Volume/1. -- Comme Neuf -- Broché. Format 21 x 15 cm. -------- 160 pages . Repères biographiques des noms cités .******************* Présentation éditeur : "" Ce livre, où sont réunis une série d'articles publiés en 1964, se propose de mettre en lumière les axes fondamentaux de la conception léniniste du parti. Nous ne nous sommes donc pas bornés à faire une lecture du texte que l'on considère généralement comme l'assise de cette conception, à savoir le Que faire ? de 1902. Nous avons recherché dans les écrits antérieurs et postérieurs de Lénine tous les éléments théoriques et politiques qui, d'une part, pouvaient permettre de reconstituer la méthode marxiste sur la base de laquelle s'est élaborée la conception organisationnelle, et qui, d'autre part, fournissaient des indices du développement de la pratique organisationnelle bolchevique. Dans le concept de « formation économico-sociale » sur lequel Lénine s'est logiquement appuyé pour restaurer le marxisme dans la bataille de la fin du XIXe siècle sont contenus les critères scientifiques qui permettront de passer de l'analyse scientifique à la lutte politique. On voit donc bien que la conception léniniste du parti naît en tant que nécessité historique de l'analyse marxiste dans le cours des luttes de classes. Elle trouvera ensuite un développement dans l'analyse des grèves et des formes embryonnaires de la lutte ouvrière. Du concept de « formation économico-sociale » à la lutte ouvrière et à la stratégie du prolétariat dans le cours de la lutte de classes à l'échelle mondiale, se développent peu à peu les éléments qui constituent la conception léniniste du parti révolutionnaire. Ce n'est qu'à travers cet ensemble de problèmes indissociables qu'on peut reconstituer et étudier cette conception, en dépassant les schématisations mystificatrices et les simplifications superficielles. Comme toute conception scientifique, la théorie léniniste du parti révolutionnaire de la classe ouvrière exige une étude d'ensemble qui en embrasse toutes les composantes et qui ne se contente pas d'en citer, sur le mode apologétique ou dénigreur, de simples extraits. Aujourd'hui plus que jamais, la nécessité s'impose d'aborder la question du parti révolutionnaire sur la base d'une étude sérieuse de l'uvre de Lénine. Dans l'uvre de construction du parti léniniste, c'est un passage obligé. "" ****************** ref od.

Repères biographiques des noms cités. ******************* Présentation éditeur : "" Seule la science peut permettre de s'émanciper de l'emprise du temps présent, qui presque toujours induit en erreur sur la réalité d'aujourd'hui perçue comme absolue, indépendante de toute évolution et qui en cela prépare les désillusions de demain. Cette émancipation, cette liberté, ne poursuit pas des buts prévisionnels abstraits, mais des objectifs pratiques. « La stratégie révolutionnaire s'appuie sur l'analyse des temps non pour dessiner l'avenir, tâche dont un mouvement réel objectif ne ressent point le besoin, mais pour fixer des échéances temporelles qui puissent servir de référence pour définir les tâches immédiates du présent, les tâches de la tactique. [] La tactique se trouve confrontée à des situations contingentes qui, pour reprendre la définition de Lénine, sont une combinaison multiforme de processus historiques à long terme. » Plus solide est la stratégie, plus souple peut être la tactique. La « question des temps » s'inscrit par là dans la pratique, dans la lutte quotidienne : « La science c'est la liberté ; car elle n'est pas une théorie coupée de la pratique, mais la pratique guidée par la théorie. »"" ****************** ref od.
