After the Fall - 1989 and the Future of Freedom (Hardcover)

Did the U.S. really "win" the Cold War? Is the fall of Communism only a temporary setback for Marxism, or has the freemarket prevailed, once and for all? It has been over ten years since the fall of the Berlin Wall and the tenth anniversary of the fall of the Soviet Union is fast approaching. In After The Fall, many of the most important Marxist scholars and journalists gather to argue that justice and equality are more important now than ever. They worry that the last ten years has brought us plenty of global capitalism but not much of the democratic freedom that the world had hoped for. The years from 1989 to 1991 did score some pretty heady victories for freedom, but this book argues there is much work to be done in detaching the best parts of Marxism from the fallen carcass of Communism.
