The Road to Power

Meer over het boek

Focusing on political revolution, Kautsky's pamphlet critiques the revisionist approach to socialism, arguing against the notion of gradual change within the existing political framework. He emphasizes the importance of achieving parliamentary democracy and working-class power through electoral success and trade-union efforts. Published in 1909, this work serves as a significant document for understanding the dynamics of the Wilhelmine Empire and the German Social Democratic Party, marking Kautsky's last major discourse on these themes.
