Exciting Announcement:
New Indian Printing of Bob Avakian’s Democracy: Can’t We Do Better Than That?
December 18, 2014 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us
Read "Introduction to Democracy: Can't We Do Better Than That? – A Landmark Work of Heightened Relevance," by Raymond Lotta.
Phoneme Publishers of Delhi, India has republished Democracy: Can't We Do Better Than That? by Bob Avakian. This is a welcome event. It brings Avakian’s text—the most comprehensive Marxist treatment of democracy—to a much wider audience in India and elsewhere. For this new printing, Raymond Lotta has written a special introduction.
Is democracy, or "true" democracy, the pinnacle of human social organization? Is the fundamental goal of socialist revolution the broadening and deepening of democratic institutions? Bob Avakian argues that there is something far more subversive of the status quo, something far more liberating, than democracy. Avakian’s landmark work, originally published in 1986, takes on heightened relevance in today’s world.
