Livio Maitan's Memoirs of a communist tells of the life of a
revolutionary communist in the second half of the 20th Century.
From his early commitment to communism in 1942 under fascism in
Italy, Livio chose to be `against the current' by rejecting both
Stalinism and social democracy and charted a course towards
democratic and revolutionary Marxism. In 1947 he joined the Italian
Trotskyist movement, of which he remained a leading member all his
life. He was one of a small group of comrades who led the Fourth
International during the difficult years of the 1950s and early
1960s. First elected in 1951, he remained a member of the
International leadership until his death. From 1991, he was a
leader of Rifondazione Comunista. Maitan died in Rome on 16
September 2004. In this book Livio Maitan and others in his
activist Marxist generation review major events in the latter half
of the 20th Century. They look at questions of strategy and
programme, seeking a democratic socialist alternative.
