V.I. Lenin ~ 1914 ~ Sharp~eyed observers of this century's political struggles will greet this first English edition of Rosa Luxemburg's doetoral thesis, The Industrial Development of Poland, as a refreshing and long~overdue break from the hash that has long been served up as political science. Luxemburg's thesis is a major polemic against the "theory of stages" and the national "right to self~determination" whose advocates were running rampant through the international social~democracy. At the time of its original publication in 1898, the dissertation met with incredulity and hostility. A woman intellectual, who was to become the greatest Marxist theoretician of her age, had successfully refuted the dominant "theory of stages" decades before Lenin himself overturned both the theory and Czarist Russia. Thus it is fitting that Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. should author the introduction to this pivotal work in political economy. Like Luxemburg, LaRouche's original contributions to the field of political economy, notably the textbook Dialectical Economics, have met the critical eye of the skeptic, the "radical" political scientist who locates the self~interest of the impoverished Third World in its "right to self~determination."~ "Luxemburg and the Crisis in Political Science" establishes with authority on what basis the historic factional struggles within both capitalist society and the socialist movement are to be judged ~ their respective commitment to an international program devoted to expanding capitalist industrial and agricultural development.
