Reforma, nebo revoluce? Vybrané spisy

This collection presents four seminal texts by Rosa Luxemburg, a figure whose life and work are synonymous with courage, independence, and principledness. Her texts are not theoretical musings detached from life, but passionate responses to fundamental questions of the socialist movement at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Whether arguing against advocates of gradual social reform instead of revolution, defending mass strikes as a dynamic tool of political struggle, or critically reflecting on the Russian Revolution, Luxemburg tirelessly reminds us that the liberation of workers must be their own work. Her key work on the Russian Revolution, which reveals the author's independent and courageous criticism of the Bolshevik leaders, is also being published in Czech for the first time. Readers can expect not only a history lesson on revolution, war, and the courage to resist conformity, but also an encounter with the ideas of a woman who gave her life for her convictions. All this makes Rosa Luxemburg, theorist and revolutionary, an inspiration for today. The publication was supported by the Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung e.V., represented in the Czech Republic.
