Conclusion. 330 $aPerforming a comparative real-time political analysis, Marxism versus Liberalism presents convincing evidence to sustain two similarly audacious claims: firstly, that Karl Marx and Frederick Engels collectively had better democratic credentials than Alexis de Tocqueville and John Stuart Mill; and secondly, that Vladimir Lenin had better democratic credentials than Max Weber and Woodrow Wilson. When the two sets of protagonists are compared and contrasted in how they read and responded to big political events in motion, this book contends that these Marxists proved to be better democrats than the history?s most prominent Liberals. Exploring the historical scenarios of The European Spring of 1848, the United States Civil War, the 1905 Russian Revolution, the 1917 Russian Revolution, and the end of World War I, Marxism versus Liberalism carefully tests each claim in order to challenge assumed political wisdom. 410 0$aMarx, Engels, and Marxisms,$x2524-7131 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aEurope$xHistory 606 $aLabor 606 $aHistory 606 $aPolitical Philosophy 606 $aPolitical Theory 606 $aPolitical Sociology 606 $aEuropean History 606 $aLabor History 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 0$aEurope$xHistory. 615 0$aLabor. 615 0$aHistory. 615 14$aPolitical Philosophy. 615 24$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aPolitical Sociology. 615 24$aEuropean History. 615 24$aLabor History. 676 $a320.51 676 $a320.532 700 $aNimtz$b August H.$0869214 912 $a9910349544703321 996 $aMarxism versus liberalism$92021825 997 $aUNINA
