In Defense of Marxism: Against the Petty Bourgeois Opposition is a book written by Leon Trotsky, a prominent Marxist revolutionary and theorist. The book is a collection of essays and speeches that Trotsky wrote between 1939 and 1940, during a time when the Marxist movement was facing significant opposition from within.The book is a passionate defense of Marxist theory and its relevance in the modern world. Trotsky argues that the petty bourgeois opposition to Marxism is based on a misunderstanding of its principles and a fear of its revolutionary potential. He asserts that Marxism is not a dogmatic ideology, but a living, evolving theory that must be constantly re-examined and adapted to changing circumstances.Throughout the book, Trotsky addresses a wide range of topics, including the role of the state in a socialist society, the nature of the working class, and the importance of internationalism in the Marxist movement. He also critiques the ideas of other prominent Marxist thinkers, such as Karl Kautsky and Eduard Bernstein.Overall, In Defense of Marxism is a powerful defense of Marxist theory and a call to action for revolutionaries around the world. It remains an important work for anyone interested in the history and theory of Marxism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
