Taking into consideration Marx's analysis of communism both as a \u003ci\u003emovement\u003c\/i\u003e and a \u003ci\u003esocial formation\u003c\/i\u003e, this study focuses on the \u003ci\u003edialectics of transition\u003c\/i\u003e from capitalism to communism. Dealing with communism as the outcome of a long-term \u003ci\u003ecultural\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003epolitical\u003c\/i\u003e process, the author defends Marxian communism as the open-ended constitution of a self-governed \u003ci\u003edemos\u003c\/i\u003e, whose citizens create their own way of life on the ground of a stateless and classless society. From this point of view, the end of the state does not mean the end, but the revival of politics in terms of a communist \u003ci\u003ebios\u003c\/i\u003e. Reshaping their collective and personal values and setting limits to the production\/technology dynamics of their economy, this book argues, the citizens of a communist \u003ci\u003epolis\u003c\/i\u003e form a promising antithesis to the private individuals of a capitalist society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Chapter 1: From the Marx of Democracy to the Marx of Communism.- Chapter 2: Marx in the City of Enlightenment and Revolutions.- Chapter 3: Marx as a Critic of Political Revolution.- Chapter 4: Marx as a Thinker of Communism.
