    What Is Socialism? A Marxist-Humanist Symposium

    By Gerry Emmett, Bob McGuire, Terry Moon, Franklin Dmitryev, and Raya Dunayevskaya

    Paperback, 2021. 115 pp.
    $10.00 + $2 postage.

    The popularity of socialism is growing, and questioning of capitalism is skyrocketing.  But what is socialism, and how do we get there?  What is capitalism, and how do we abolish it?  How do these questions relate to Subjects of revolution, from Black America to Women’s Liberation, from labor to ecological defenders?  And what kinds of philosophy and organization do we need to help us get to a new human society and prevent backsliding to capitalist exploitation, bureaucracy and dictatorship?  This new Marxist-Humanist publication addresses these questions and more.
