Gramsci between Marxism and Idealism

Written by Onorato Damen. £7.50, 151pp.

The present volume is the product of Damen’s considerations on Gramsci’s shortcomings as an analytical and practical Marxist which he evidently wrote over a period of years. The structure is loose because he died before he completed it and the draft chapters were only discovered posthumously and eventually published in 1982.

The book can be ordered by emailing us at uk@leftcom.org and asking for our banking details, by donating the cost of the publications required via Paypal using the “Donate” button, or via Amazon (amazon.co.uk).

Bordiga Beyond the Myth

Written by Onorato Damen. £5, 168pp.

The originality and importance of this volume – in a expanded edition including new documents and editorial notes, from the two previous editions: 1971 and 1977 – mainly lies in the documents that throw permanent light on the distinctive development and perspectives of the “Italian Left” over decades (among the most tragic in modern history) in the history of international communism.

The book can be ordered by emailing us at uk@leftcom.org and asking for our banking details, by donating the cost of the publications required via Paypal using the “Donate” button, or via Amazon.co.uk (amazon.co.uk). Don't go to Amazon.com as it says "unavailable" there.

Class Consciousness and Revolutionary Organisation

The issue of “consciousness” is one of the most important for the working class and for revolutionaries. Our approach is unashamedly historical and attempts to draw out the real experience of the working class in its struggles of the last two centuries.
