Description
"This volume presents a dialectical-materialist analysis by a leading scholar-activist, Herbert Aptheker, of issues confronting the United States today. It brings together a representative sample of his continuing contributions to the writing of history, his penetrating critiques of current historiography, and his analysis of the impact of racism and imperialism, both in history and at present. The conclusion which Aptheker draws from this analysis is that the struggle for peace, democracy, show more and equality must continue and, more importantly, must be a struggle which unites and thereby strengthens each cause. Throughout, the analysis is informed by Marxist theory, marked by a scathing indictment of racism and imperialism, and touched with a deep sense of humanism. The complexities of the current historical epoch require nothing less"--Editors' preface, page 7. show lessTags
