Description
Summary:Marx called for a society where the ruling principle is 'the full and free development of every individual.' Capitalism neither is nor can be such a society. Domination, worsening ecological crises, and many other pathologies are its intrinsic features-not bugs that can be corrected. But is there truly a better way to organize society?

It describes in detail a workable model of republican socialism , a vision of socialism worth fighting for.
