However, many individuals need to be more familiar with socialism's revolutionary past. Understanding the Second International, commonly known as the Socialist International, during its Marxist era is of utmost importance for this reason.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom 1889 to 1912, the resolutions passed by the Second International played a crucial role in spreading and popularizing a revolutionary vision: the overthrow of capitalism and its replacement by the democratic rule of the working class. This was seen as a vital first step towards achieving socialism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile the Second International faced weaknesses and contradictions that ultimately led to its collapse in 1914, its resolutions during these years remain a valuable resource for those studying the history and objectives of the socialist movement. The topics addressed, such as war and militarism, immigration, trade unions and labor legislation, women's rights, colonialism, socialist strategy and tactics, remain equally relevant today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a groundbreaking English-language compilation that brings together all the resolutions adopted by congresses of the Second International during its Marxist years. It provides a comprehensive and invaluable perspective on the socialist movement during this critical period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 334g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 151 x 229 x 16 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781642594676                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44098925625594,"sku":"9781642594676","price":13.14,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/8a1896f70e5b2ca849d2ff5d1db27fea.jpg?v=1633577665","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/under-the-socialist-banner-resolutions-of-the-second-international-1889-1912","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
