A Socialist Critique of Dragsted: Nordic Socialism and Marx' and Engels' Historical Materialism Ib Gram-Jensen; Ib Gram-Jensen 1.º edición

The first of the two essays in this book is a warning against the gradualist strategy for the transition from capitalism to socialism advocated by Pelle Dragsted in his book Nordic Socialism, a strategy which must be considered unrealistic. The second, longer, essay sums up and continues the critique of Marx' and Engels' historical materialism in previous books by this writer - a critique turning on the inconsistencies and determinism in this historical materialism and the consequent lack of a proper awareness of the problems involved in the transition from capitalism to a classless communist society, the desirability of which transition is fully recognised by the author.
