The Quest for Evolutionary Socialism uses Eduard Bernstein's life
and works as the basis for an examination of the interactions
between European social democratic politics and socialist political
ideas. It is thus a timely response to the need for a new,
comprehensive biography of Bernstein, the German 'Father of Marxist
Revisionism'. Professor Steger incorporates recent academic
developments and addresses current debates on the 'End of
Socialism' resulting from the collapse of Marxism-Leninism and the
chronic ailments of European social democracy. This study is set
within the historical context of the European labour movement and
thus Steger interprets Bernstein's 'Evolutionary Socialism' as an
ethically motivated quest for liberty, solidarity and distributive
justice. Steger stresses that the future of social democracy
depends on its ability to heed Bernstein's call for critical
self-reflection and to reorientate towards more liberal ideals.
