Marxism, Freedom And The State - Mikhail Aleksandrovich Bakunin - Bog

Marxism, Freedom and the State is a collection of essays and letters written by the Russian anarchist revolutionary, Mikhail Bakunin. The book explores Bakunin's critique of Marxism and his belief in the necessity of revolution and the abolition of the state. Bakunin argues that Marxism, while attempting to achieve a classless society, ultimately leads to a new class of bureaucrats who control the means of production and the state. He advocates for a decentralized, anarchist system in which workers control their own means of production and society is organized based on voluntary associations. The book also includes Bakunin's thoughts on the role of religion, the importance of individual freedom, and his vision for a society free from oppression and exploitation. Marxism, Freedom and the State is an important work in anarchist theory and a critique of Marxist ideology.Its principal point is the conquest of political power by the working class. One can understand that men as indispensable as Marx and Engels should be the partisans of a programme which, consecrating and approving political power, opens the door to all ambitions. Since there will be political power there will necessarily be subjects, got up in Republican fashion, as citizens, it is true, but who will none the less be subjects, and who as such will be forced to obey.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
