History And Reality - Herbert Aptheker - Bog

History and Reality is a book written by Herbert Aptheker, an American Marxist historian and political activist. The book is a collection of essays and articles that explore the relationship between history and reality, particularly in the context of Marxist theory. Aptheker argues that history is not simply a record of events, but is shaped by the social, economic, and political forces that exist at any given time. He also examines the role of ideology in shaping historical narratives and how these narratives can be used to justify or challenge existing power structures. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the history of slavery in the United States, the role of labor unions in American society, and the legacy of Karl Marx. Throughout the book, Aptheker emphasizes the importance of understanding history as a dynamic and evolving process, rather than a static and unchanging record of the past. History and Reality is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to think critically about the relationship between history and the world around them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
