A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This new edition of Donald Sassoon's magisterial history of the Left in the twentieth century includes a substantial new introduction by the author. With unique authority and unparalleled scholarship, Sassoon traces the fortunes of the political parties of the left in Western Europe across 14 countries, covering the fortunes of socialism from the rise of the Bolsheviks through two World Wars to the revival of feminism and the arrival of 'green' politics. Reviews: 'A remarkable new work of historical analysis, which will soon establish itself as a classic' - Eric Hobsbawm, Guardian; 'Remarkable...A massive and original synthesis which deserves to become a classic, there is nothing comparable to it in the English language' - David Marquand; '[An] extraordinary achievement...this book is a small masterpiece' - Sir Bernard Crick
