{"product_id":"1469663724","title":"Black Marxism, Revised and Updated Third Edition: The Making of the Black Radical Tradition","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eReview\\\u003cbr\u003eBlack Marxism has become an unlikely handbook for a new generation of radicals and activists.\"--London Review of Books\\\u003cbr\u003eA towering achievement. There is simply nothing like it in the history of black radical thought.\"--Cornel West, Monthly Review\\\u003cbr\u003eFor those interested in pursuing political and ideological alternatives to capitalistic exploitation and underdevelopment of African peoples in the Americas and Africa, Black Marxism provides a well-documented foundation upon which to build ideological and mass social movements.\"--Phylon\\\u003cbr\u003eRobinson demonstrates very clearly . . . the ability of the black tradition to transcend national boundaries and accommodate cultural, religious and 'racial' differences. Indeed, he shows that, in a sense, it has emerged out of the transformation of these differences.\"--Race and Class\\\u003cbr\u003eIn this ambitious work, first published in 1983, Cedric Robinson demonstrates that efforts to understand Black people's history of resistance solely through the prism of Marxist theory are incomplete and inaccurate. Marxist analyses tend to presuppose European models of history and experience that downplay the significance of Black people and Black communities as agents of change and resistance. Black radicalism, Robinson argues, must be linked to the traditions of Africa and the unique experiences of Blacks on western continents, and any analyses of African American history need to acknowledge this.\\\u003cbr\u003eTo illustrate his argument, Robinson traces the emergence of Marxist ideology in Europe, the resistance by Blacks in historically oppressive environments, and the influence of both of these traditions on such important twentieth-century Black radical thinkers as W. E. B. Du Bois, C. L. R. James, and Richard Wright. This revised and updated third edition includes a new preface by Tiffany Willoughby-Herard, and a new foreword by Robin D. G.
