Follow on Google News | ![]() Why Political Democracy Must Go by John Reed now available from Histria BooksBy: Histria Books Why Political Democracy Must Go is an insightful analysis of the origins of the socialist movement in the United States, written by famed journalist John Reed, one of the most distinguished American writers on the subject. Midwest Book Review calls it "An inherently fascinating read of a political commentary and analysis that has stood the test of time." One of socialism's fiercest proponents, Reed exposes the myth of 'democratic socialism.' He provides an overview of the development of socialist thought, demonstrating that socialism cannot be achieved through political democracy. Originally published in 1919 in serial form, Why Political Democracy Must Go provides critical historical insight on the evolution of socialist thought in the United States. Reed gives a devastating critique of the American political system that, in many ways, is as valid today as it was when he first wrote it. Today, when there is renewed interest in socialism on the American political scene, this notable series of essays reveals the underpinnings of socialist thought. John Reed's analysis will be of interest to those on all sides of the political spectrum. The book is enhanced with an introduction by acclaimed historian A.K. Brackob, editor of another collection of Reed's writings, Romania during World War I: Observations of an American Journalist. Why Political Democracy Must Go, by John Reed, 132 pp., ISBN 978-1-59211- End
