Thus when Stalin erected statues of Lenin after mummifying his dead body in the style of the Egyptian Pharaohs, Leninism and the will to revolution consequently died. And so too when the Statue of Liberty was constructed, liberty died. But the best image of statues and the death of reason and humanity is Hugo Rheingold's rendering of the "ape with the skull" (Affe mit Schädel) where an ape in a contemplative pose is sculptured with a human skull in his hand and sitting on a pile of books which includes the Bible and Darwin's magnum opus. The ape is pondering on what has happened to humanity. This book likewise is a philosophical reflection on the human condition beginning with the question of alienation that signifies the "terrible future of the world" where neurosis, psychosis and schizophrenia overpower reason and human compassion where ethno-nationalism has displaced secularism, which has then made the Congress Party playact the role of Shakespeare's Hamlet chasing the ghost of his dead father, who is then followed by the Second Hamlet, namely the Indian communist parties, but unlike the Congress version of Hamlet who is rendered impotent, this Second Hamlet takes on the role of a theologian with a mission to perform, fantasizing that he would solve all the problems afflicting India, not knowing that he himself is part of the problem.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This volume stems from essays written in theEconomic & Political Weeklyon the crisis confronting the Left in India along with the challenging of the basic concepts of communist politics liks democratic centralism, essays which were responded with critical philosophical reading of Revolutionary Marxism, especially on the need of understadning Hegelian dialectics for constructing mass-based communist politices. While the theme of the crisis of the Left formed part of the debate in theEconomic & Political Weeklythere was a dialectical counterpoint that located the crisis in the form of parliamentary politics of the Left that worked in the strange thematic of Marxism devoid of Marx and emancipation devoid of humanity. The crisis of the Left in India was thus not merely pointed to a form of politics that was becoming irrelevant to the Indian masses in the form of social engineering. The crisis was understood as a form of philosophically uninformed Left politics that drew more from Stalin to Mao than on Marx's emancipatory repertoire itself. The debates on this theme of whether Stalin to Mao are not merely relevant to revolutionary politics, but whether both were essentially counterrevolutionary form a part of this volume. The analysis of the collapse of the Soviet Union and whether socialism collapsed in the early 1990s or whether the rise of Stalinism in the late 1920s signified the collapse of socialism forms an important part of this work. The volume stresses on the need for reading Marx'sEconomic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844and his theory of alienation in modern capitalist society along withCapitaland Lenin'sState and Revolution. In order that one contextualises alienation in the larger narrative of class struggle, caste and the Asiatic mode of production, as well as to locate this important debate on the challenges confronting the Indian Left in its important historical and philosophical contexts, other interventions came up, penned especially for this volume, where the relevance of Gramsci along with the questions of the contemporary nature of imperialism and the nature of the socialist alternative, the analysis of the downward slide of the Parliamentary Left in the 2009 National Elections that culminated in the triumph of the Indian fascists in the 2014 National Elections and the inherent opportunist and defeatist nature of parliamentary politics have been included. The analysis of the rise of fascism and its linking to both the violent nature of capital accumulation in the 21st century, as well to the caste syste, also forms a part of this work. The study of European and Indian fascism is also included here. This volume seeks to be both empirical as well as theoretical, where along with Marx's original works, the ideas of Lenin, Rosa Luxemburg, Mao Tse-tung, Georg Lukacs, Antonio Gramsci, Louis Althusser, Paul Sweezy and Salvoj Zizek also emerge in critical discussions.
