"To think that a socialist revolution in the U.S. is not possible, you would have to believe not only that the ruling families of the imperialist countries and their economic wizards have found a way to `manage? capitalism. You would also have to close your eyes to the spreading imperialist wars, civil wars, and economic, financial, and social crises we are in the midst of."?Mary-Alice WatersCaracas, Venezuela, November 2007Part of a wide-raging debate on ?The United States: a possible revolution? at the 2007 Venezuela International Book Fair, Waters explains in these pages why a socialist revolution in the United States is possible. Why revolutionary struggles by working people are inevitable'initiated not by the toilers, but forced upon us by the crisis-driven assaults of the propertied classes. As a fighting vanguard of the toilers emerges, the outlines of these coming class battles can already be seen.

The United Socialist States of America is in the making! In one of his most recent and highly praised works, Dr. Céspedes forecasts a socialist future. With excellent writing and formidable arguments he establishes that there have always been those who have wanted the establishment of a socialist economic system in the United States. They are forever undeterred in their quest for a socialist revolution. What are their ultimate and often undisclosed aims? What happens when the legislation they propose is defeated? Why do their policies have great appeal to significant sectors of society? What are the identities of the socialist sympathizers, what are their numbers, and who are their allies? Theirs are the seedlings of a myopic vision of class warfare and envy that will be nourished year after year despite all setbacks to eventually create a socialist America. They unalterably believe that the United States and its institutions are hopelessly corrupt, and therefore have to be cleared away to make room for something new. If you are politically in the center or the right you are on the weak team, they are much more organized and have been for many years. Do not underestimate the power of the left. Educating yourself is the first priority. The era of socialism is underway.

We are at war. This war is aimed at you, your family, your country and the Western Civilization as a whole. Afghanistan and the Socialist Revolution in America are parts of this long war... As a compilation of articles written during the last thirty years this book represents the history of ideology that brought the world and America to its current crisis. The pages of this book reveal the faceless and nameless enemies that have been secretly operating under the radar for decades. The book exposes the driving force behind the International Terrorism today: Russia and her Counterintelligence operations. Being a profound and meaningful work, this book is a rich arsenal of information based on the author’s first-hand experiences and factual data. This book will bring to light myriads of compelling and grim secrets behind such names as Joseph Stalin, who married the Communist ideology with Islamic Jihad, Yuri Andropov who designed the monumental infiltration into the midst of our society by simultaneous intrusion of our intelligence apparatus and the media, and Vladimir Putin who is successfully implementing their strategy in the 21st century. Exposing the core of today’s terrorism, its roots, ideology and operations, Socialist Revolution in America is an eye-opener in comprehending the major underlying problems in America and the world. To survive and win this war, awareness and knowledge of the enemy is urgent and crucial.

Why socialism has failed to play a significant role in the United States - the most developed capitalist industrial society and hence, ostensibly, fertile ground for socialism - has been a critical question of American history and political development. This study surveys the various explanations for this phenomenon of American political exceptionalism.

"Never before have so many Americans been more frustrated with our economic system, more fearful that it is failing, or more open to fresh ideas about a new one. The seeds of a new economy--and, if we act upon it, a new system--are forming. What is that next system? It's not corporate capitalism, not state socialism, but something else--something entirely American. In What Then Must We Do?, Gar Alperovitz speaks directly to the reader about why the time is right for a revolutionary new economy movement, what it means to democratize the ownership of wealth, what it will take to build a new system to replace the decaying one--and how to strengthen our communities through cooperatives, worker-owned companies, neighborhood corporations, small and medium-size independent businesses, and publicly owned enterprises. For the growing group of Americans pacing at the edge of confidence in the old system, or already among its detractors, What Then Must We Do? offers an evolutionary, common-sense solution for moving from despair and anger to strategy and action."--Publisher's website.

State structures, international forces, and class relations: Theda Skocpol shows how all three combine to explain the origins and accomplishments of social-revolutionary transformations. Social revolutions have been rare but undeniably of enormous importance in modern world history. States and Social Revolutions provides a new frame of reference for analyzing the causes, the conflicts, and the outcomes of such revolutions. It develops a rigorous, comparative historical analysis of three major cases: the French Revolution of 1787 through the early 1800s, the Russian Revolution of 1917 through the 1930s, and the Chinese Revolution of 1911 through the 1960s. Believing that existing theories of revolution, both Marxist and non-Marxist, are inadequate to explain the actual historical patterns of revolutions, Skocpol urges us to adopt fresh perspectives. Above all, she maintains that states conceived as administrative and coercive organizations potentially autonomous from class controls and interests must be made central to explanations of revolutions.
