His interpretation of Marx’s Capital and the basic laws and contradictions of capitalism was the standard reference point for both the foes and allies of Social Democracy. Jukka Gronow’s On the Formation of Marxism analyses Kautsky’s impact on the self-understanding of the European labour movement from his dispute over Revisionism with Eduard Bernstein to his polemics with V.I. Lenin over Imperialism and the Russian Revolution. Despite many political differences, Gronow shows that these authors shared a common understanding of the basic nature of capitalism, which in important respects differed from Marx’s critique of political economy.Historical materialism book series ;Volume 113.CapitalismCommunismHistorymarxismCapitalismCommodityImperialismKarl KautskyKarl MarxProletariatSocialismVladimir LeninWorking classCapitalism.CommunismHistory.335.4Gronow Jukka863627MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQUkMaJRUBOOK9910137229103321On the formation of Marxism1927581UNINA
