In this radical and disturbing account of Soviet philosophy, Boris Groys argues that communism shares that dream and is best understood as an attempt to replace financial with linguistic bonds as the cement uniting society. The transformative power of language, the medium of equality, is the key to any new communist revolution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Boris Groys\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1844674320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781844674329\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/23\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 4.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Boris Groys","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991152066815,"sku":"9781844674329","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cf8b3887-d50b-4442-beed-863605270d1f.jpg?v=1683308731","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-communist-postscript-boris-groys-9781844674329","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
