Once deemed 'the pope of Marxism', Karl Kautsky (1854-1938) was the
leading theoretician of the German Social Democratic Party and one
of the most prominent public intellectuals of his time. However,
during the twentieth century a constellation of historical factors
ensured that his ideas were gradually consigned to near oblivion.
Not only has his political thought been dismissed in non-Marxist
historical and political discourse, but his ideas are equally
discredited in Marxist circles. This book aims to rekindle interest
in Kautsky's ideas by exploring his democratic-republican
understanding of state and society. It demonstrates how Kautsky's
republican thought was positively influenced by Marx and Engels -
especially in relation to the lessons they drew from the experience
of the Paris Commune. Listen to Ben Lewis discuss the book on [this
podcast] by LINKSE HOBBY.
