By Tony Cliff
Forty years ago the road to socialism was lost, in the labyrinth of Stalinist bureaucracy in the East, and the marshes of Parliamentary compromise in the West. In the years since, the writings of Tony Cliff have played a leading role in re-discovering that road. This collection brings together some of the most important, on the nature of Russia and Eastern Europe, on the economic stability and instability of Western capitalism, on China, on the Middle East and on revolutionary socialism today.
