| Zusammenfassung: | Preface to the second edition -- Prologue: changing faiths. Beginnings : Conspiracy of equals: Babeuf plots a revolution -- New harmony: Owen conducts an experiment -- Scientific socialism: Engels interprets the oracle -- What is to be done?: Bernstein develops doubts. Triumphs : Real existing socialism: Lenin seizes power -- Fascism: Mussolini becomes a heretic -- Social democracy: Attlee takes the slow road -- Ujamaa: Nyerere forges a synthesis. Collapse : Union card: Gompers and Meany hear a different drummer -- Perestroika and modernization: Deng and Gorbachev repeal communism -- The party of business: Blair redefines social democracy -- The Kibbutz goes to market. Afterlife : Epilogue: rising from the ashes. Appendices -- Acknowledgments -- Notes -- Index Socialism was man's most ambitious attempt to supplant religion with a doctrine claiming to ground itself in "science." Each failure to create societies of abundance or give birth to "the New Man" inspired more searching for the path to the promised land: revolution, communes, social democracy, communism, fascism, Arab socialism, African socialism. None worked, and some exacted a staggering human toll. Then, after two centuries of wishful thinking and bitter disappointment, socialism imploded in a fin de siècle drama of falling walls and collapsing regimes. It was an astonishing denouement but what followed was no less astonishing. After the hiatus of a couple of decades, new voices were raised, as if innocent of all that had come before, proposing to try it all over again. The author traces the pursuit of this phantasm, presenting sketches of the thinkers and leaders who developed the theory, led it to power, and presided over its collapse, as well as those who are trying to revive it today |
