ABOUT THE BOOK:

Löwy’s book is the first attempt to analyze, in a systematic way, how the theories of uneven and combined development, and of the permanent revolution — inseparably linked — emerged in the writings of thinkers such as Karl Marx and Leon Trotsky. Such radical reflections permit us to understand modern economic development across continents as a process of ferocious change, in which “advanced” and “backward” element fuse, come into tension, and collide — and how the resulting ruptures make it possible for the oppressed and exploited to change the world.



ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Michael Löwy is Research Director in Sociology at the National Centre for Scientific Research in Paris. He is the author of many books, including The Theory of Revolution in the Young Marx (Haymarket Books) and, with Olivier Besancenot, Che Guevara: His Revolutionary Legacy.
