This volume offers new perspectives on the appeal and profound
cultural meaning of socialism over the past two centuries. It
brings together scholarship from various disciplines addressing
diverse national contexts, including Britain, China, France,
Germany, Norway, Sweden, and the USA. Taken together, the
contributions highlight the aesthetic, narrative, and religious
dimensions of socialism as it has developed through three broad
phases in the modern era: early nineteenth-century beginnings,
mass-based political organizations, and the attainment of state
power in the twentieth century and beyond. Socialism did not
attract millions of people primarily because of logical argument
and empirical evidence, important though those were. Rather, it
told the most compelling story about the past, present, and future.
Refocusing attention on socialism's imaginative dimensions, this
volume aims to revive scholarly interest in one of the modern
world(1)s most important political orientations.
