The power of reason : a world without limits -- The legacies of socialism : theory -- The legacies of socialism : organizational successes, and failures -- The role and limits of social theories -- Capitalist realities : economic development, the state, and the myths of the market -- Capitalist realities : the way the world lives -- The future : where and how.

Does socialism have a future in the world of the twenty-first century? If not, what is the future for progressive politics? Addressing these questions, this work interrogates both the origins and development of socialist ideas and the contemporary dynamics of the globalized economy dominated by American military, cultural and political might.
