It was written in criticism of the ideas presented by Eduard Bernstein, a proponent of more gradual change or \"reform\" as opposed to orthodox theories of revolution as espoused by Marx and Luxembourg. At the age of twenty-seven, she had established herself as a major figure in the \u003cem\u003eSecond International\u003c\/em\u003e by offering one of the most comprehensive criticisms of Bernstein's revisionist call to prioritize the method of reform over that of revolution. A close friend and collaborator of Engels, a Marxist of impeccable credentials but also a pioneering advocate of gay rights, Bernstein was also the first to articulate a non revolutionary path to socialism in what is widely considered the founding text of modern social democracy: \u003cem\u003eThe Preconditions of Socialism and the Tasks of Social Democracy\u003c\/em\u003e (1899). At stake in Bernstein's dilemma, she argued, was not just a tactical choice, a mere discussion about this or that method of struggle; it was the \"very existence of the Social Democratic movement\" as a distinctive force in the struggle against capitalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.19 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 25, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51978532946221,"sku":"9781684225149","price":12.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/VHlBQXN3aVV6OGlJR3ZWRFpZYWo5UT09.webp?v=1775805672","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/reform-or-revolution-paperback","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
