Excerpt from The Militant ProletariatThe later exponents of socialism have been notably inspired by this View. Thus, Liebknecht says, For our party and for our party tactics there is but one valid basis, the basis of the class struggle out of which the Social Demo cratic Party has sprung up, and out of which alone it can draw the necessary strength to bid defiance to every storm and to all its enemies. The founders of our party, Marx, Engels, and Lasselle, impressed upon the workingmen the necessity of the class character of our movement so deeply that down to a very recent time there were no considerable deviations or getting off the track (liebknecht, No Compromise, Kerr, Chicago).About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
