About this title

Synopsis

THE DYNAMICS OF SOCIAL CHANGE ~ These representative selections from the writings of Marx, Engels, and Lenin deal with history, social formations, political economy and revolutionary change. The volume has five parts; fundamentals of historical materialism; history in the making; societies preceding capitalism in Europe and Asia, and Europe's transition from feudalism to capitalism; capitalism, its driving forces and contradictions; and problems of revolution leading to a socialist society. A full-length general introduction as well as introductions to the five parts place these selections in context and identify central themes and problems. This arrangement, coupled with a detailed tale of Contents, facilitates use for study or reference purposes. This volume presents, in their own words, the basic ideas of Marx, Engels, and Lenin in the areas of sociology, history, politics and economics. The editors have selected the most representative statements from the vast body of their writings and have arranged them to enable the reader to grasp their essentials. Although this book is complete in itself, it is a sequel and companion to the "Reader in Marxist Philosophy" (1963), which presents the philosophical framework in which Marxist thought developed.
