Following the disappearance of the Soviet Union, scholars across
the political spectrum tackled the world-historical significance of
the end of communism. This book addresses the balance-sheets of
modern political history offered by three writers -- Francis
Fukuyama, Eric Hobsbawm and Perry Anderson -- comparing them with
the future projected by Marx in The Communist Manifesto. Gregory
Elliott argues that Marx is central to all three accounts and that,
along with the Manifesto, they form a quartet of analyses of the
results and prospects of capitalism and socialism, which are of
enduring significance for the Left. This book provides a readable
survey of key historical and political thinkers that will appeal to
anyone interested in modern political thought.
