Stressing the transnational dimension of this process while simultaneously integrating local, regional, and national factors, this work finds that it was social democracy, rather than communism, that acted as the primary vehicle for radical change among European marxists during the 1930s. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFollowing major figures within the European left and the significant events that made up the inter-war period, Gerd-Rainer Horn demonstrates the interconnectedness of Europe's interwar socialists. Finally, Horn manages to relate these findings to the ongoing interdisciplinary debate on structure, agency, and contingency in the historical process.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerd-Rainer Horn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 019886373X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198863731\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/10\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Gerd-Rainer Horn","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48174871183615,"sku":"9780198863731","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f9276f0a-47c8-48df-96b1-95f963e4d3d2.jpg?v=1771331067","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/european-socialists-respond-to-fascism-gerd-rainer-horn-9780198863731","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
