AUSTRO-MARXISM: THE IDEOLOGY OF UNITY. AUSTRO-MARXIST THEORY AND STRATEGY. VOLUME 1.

MARK E. BLUM AND WILLIAM SMALDONE

 

NOW AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK FROM HAYMARKET BOOKS

 

Though largely unknown to the English-speaking world, the Austro-Marxist school of thinkers offered a number of essential theoretical insights into the issues faced by the burgeoning socialist movement of their time. This illuminating volume collects the most important works of the key figures from this school—Otto Bauer, Max Adler, Karl Renner, Friedrich Adler, Rudolf Hilferding, and Otto Neurath—and historically situates their contributions through brief biographical sketches, making them accessible to English speaking readers for the first time.

 

Mark E. Blum, Ph.D. (1970), University of Pennsylvania, is a Professor of History at the University of Louisville, Kentucky. He published books, monographs and articles on European socialism, including The Austro-Marxists,1890-1918: A Psychobiographical Study (University of Kentucky, 1985).

 

William Smaldone, Ph.D. (1989),SUNY at Binghamton, is Professor of History at Willamette University in Salem, Oregon. He published monographs and articles on the history of European socialism, including, most recently, European Socialism: A Concise History with Documents (Rowman and Littlefield, 2013).
