Summary
American socialist whose phrase “socialism from below” the editors of Palestine: A Socialist Introduction use to name their socialism, and whose Karl Marx’s Theory of Revolution Chapter 4 uses for the material case for the working class as the agent of revolution (Palestine: A Socialist Introduction, lines 177-179, lines 856-862).
Details
- The Introduction quotes Draper that socialism can be realized only through the self-emancipation of activated masses in motion (lines 177-179).
- Chapter 4 quotes Draper that the working class is at the levers of economic power not by conscious decision but by its objective conditions of existence, and then asks whether the Israeli working class is an exception to that rule (lines 856-862).
