A very disappointing book, as the author appears to assume that his view of atheism is able to speak for all atheists. The book is more a paean to communism than a ringing endorsement of atheism. The authors arguments in favor of non-belief are old, and not well expressed. Stick with Dawkins or Hitchens.

sürekli bize vaaz nedir bu kapitalist sistem biz altında, ne de ancak dünya mümkün olan en iyi dünyada temsil etmez sürekli uzak Drenaj veya bir anlık darbeler hayatı uzaklaştırarak insanlığın büyük çoğunluğu için yaşam bu şekilde yaşamak rağmen. Hangi yaşam günlük tren sahip yollar, yüzyıllar ve bin yıl için, aşağı tartılması için beden ve ruh olarak kırık, baskıyla, acı, yıkım, şiddet ve yıkım ve bilgisizliğin karanlık peçe insanlığın büyük çoğunluğu neden ve batıl, bu acı insanlık suçum değil de bazı varolmayan tanrı veya tanrılar, ya da değişmeyen ve değişmez insan doğasının sonucu bu olacaktır. Tüm bu ifade ve bunun sonucu, bu arada insan toplumu bu noktaya egemenliğinde kadar geliştirmiş olduğu sömürücülerin ve zalimlerin ... ama bu çok gelişme noktasına insanlığa getirdiği nerede ne oldu, binlerce yıldır artık nerede yaşam bir bütün farklı şekilde hangi insan, ayrı ayrı ve tüm birbirleriyle karşılıklı etkileşim içinde yukarıda, dünyanın her yerinde, gelenek ve ris ağır zincirleri bozabilir mümkün olmalıdır - Revolution Kitaplar, Online, 5-8-10… (plus d'informations)

Today, the ideals of Jeffersonian democracy are widely hailed to the point where even many who think of themselves as radical or revolutionary worship at this "chapel of democracy," and almost every demand for social change seems to come packaged in those terms. In fact, this expresses a poverty of analysis that has seriously fettered the vision of the movements of today -- a poverty of analysis that demands to be subjected to serious criticism.

In the face of this, Avakian takes on the ideals of Jeffersonianism, and convincingly locates even its "loftiest aspirations" in social relations of exploitation and oppression -- the social relations out of which those ideals grew, and which they served and continue to serve. In doing so, he draws on a wide range of scholarly research and polemically takes on major contemporary defenders of Jeffersonian democracy. Avakian demonstrates why and how these ideals of democracy co-existed with -- and, indeed, arose on the basis of -- the enslavement of Black people and the deep embedding of white supremacy into the body politic and ideological psyche of the U.S.

But he goes further: not only showing why events turned out that way, but why those ideals themselves could only and can only generate and serve relations of exploitation and the division, and polarization, of people into antagonistic classes. . into oppressor and oppressed. Moreover, he convincingly points the way to a vision and future that is truly emancipatory -- to a vision of freedom far more radical and thoroughgoing than anything imaginable within the constricted horizons of Jeffersonianism. In doing this, Avakian includes a devastating critique of the "free marketplace of ideas," contrasting it to a genuinely unfettered search for the truth -- and he shows what kind of economic and political system would be necessary for that to flourish.

This pamphlet emphatically challenges and refutes the message that revolution is impossible and communism unworkable and not desirable. In fact, revolution and communism are exactly what humanity needs! This pamphlet speaks to why communist revolution is not only necessary, but possible -- and how it could be made. It concentrates the strategic foundation and scaffolding for advancing on the road of revolution and communism, and winning growing numbers of the masses to that cause, through hard struggle (both against the enemy, but also including sharp ideological struggle with the masses) and with all the twists and turns that will inevitably be encountered.… (plus d'informations)
