This book addresses the balance-sheets of modern political history offered by three writers -- Francis Fukuyama, Eric Hobsbawm and Perry Anderson -- comparing them with the future projected by Marx in The Communist Manifesto.Gregory Elliott argues that Marx is central to all three accounts and that, along with the Manifesto, they form a quartet of analyses of the results and prospects of capitalism and socialism, which are of enduring significance for the Left.This book provides a readable survey of key historical and political thinkers that will appeal to anyone interested in modern political thought. 606 $aSocialism 606 $aCapitalism 615 0$aSocialism. 615 0$aCapitalism. 676 $a335.4 700 $aElliott$b Gregory$0308893 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812784703321 996 $aEnds in sight$93954148 997 $aUNINA
