Ernest Mandel's book is a study of Eurocommunism unlike any other.
Written in the polemical tradition of Trotsky, its sweep extends
well beyond the immediate prospects of the Communist Parties of
Western Europe. Mandel traces the long historical process which has
transformed the once embattled detachments of the Third
International into the constitutionalist formations of "historic
compromise" and "union of the people" today. He then goes on to
argue that the national roads to socialism of contemporary
Eurocommunism are the "bitter fruits of socialism in one country"
in the USSR.
Mandel's book contains trenchant and documented criticisms of the
ideas of Santiago Carrillo in Spain, the economic policies of the
PCI in Italy, and the PCF's theories of the State in France. But it
also sets these Western developments in the context of European
politics as a whole--discussing the Russian response to Carrillo,
the organizational attitudes of the CPSU to the Western parties,
and the emergence of major dissident currents in Eastern Germany
sympathetic to Eurocommunism.
"From Stalinism to Eurocommunism" represents the first systematic
and comprehensive critique from the Marxist Left of the new
strategy of Western Communism. It can be read as a barometer of the
storms ahead in the European labour movement.
