Synopsis

Also known as the Cook-Maxton Manifesto, Our Case for a Socialist Revival provides an insight into the challenges and choices facing the Labour Movement in Britain in the aftermath of the General Strike, and in the face of mass unemployment and industrial crisis. More particularly, it offers a critical analysis of the alternatives on offer: the promise of a profitable future based on immediate wage cuts and longer hours; versus, in their words, ‘common ownership of the means of life, their control by the workers, their scientific development with the aim of production for use and not for profit.’

In a striking echo of current struggles in the Labour Movement, Cook and Maxton also warn that the goal of ‘a petty social reform movement’ is capitalism 'modified and palliated’ which in their view 'is an exact description of Liberalism’s attitude, both in theory and in practice.’
