Drawing on the prescient insights of Leon Trotsky, Michael Lêwy shows how modern economic development across continents can only be understood as a process of ferocious change, in which social formations fuse, come into tension and collide. The resulting ruptures make it possible for the oppressed and exploited to change the world. Author Michael Lêwy is the author of many books, including The Theory of Revolution in the Young Marx (Haymarket).
