This is the story of the decline and fall of an empire, a region
devastated by war, and a world stage fundamentally transformed by
the Russian Revolution. Bauer's magisterial work - available in
English for the first time in full - charts the evolution of three
simultaneous, overlapping revolutionary waves: a national
revolution for self-determination, which brought down imperial
Austro-Hungary; a bourgeois revolution for parliamentary republics
and universal suffrage; and a social revolution for workers'
control, factory councils, and industrial democracy. The brief but
crowning achievement of Red Vienna, alongside Bauer's unique
theorization of an "integral socialism" - an attempted synthesis of
revolutionary communism and social democracy - is a vital part of
the left's intellectual and historical heritage. Today, as
movements once again struggle with questions of reform or
revolution, political strategy, and state power, this is a crucial
resource. Bauer tells the story of the Austrian Revolution with all
the immediacy of a central participant, and all the insight of a
brilliant and original theorist.
