Dynamite: The Story of Class Violence in America

$28.00 USD
$28.00 USD
Sale Sold out

Louis Adamic's Dynamite: The Story of Class Violence in America is a historical overview which outlines the class struggle in the United States between the end of the Civil War and the onset of the Great Depression. While not a Communist, Adamic provides a worthy account of the development of the labor movement, particularly of how it employed violence in its struggle—albeit frequently spontaneous and not yet guided by the ideology of the international proletariat. Important episodes such as the Haymarket Affair, opposition to the First Imperialist World War, the farcical trial of Sacco and Vanzetti, and the rise and degeneration of the A. F. of L., among others, are examined across six main periods of labor struggle.

$10.00 USD
Sale Sold out

Republished here for the first time since its original 1861 release, A Voice from Harpers Ferry is Osborne P. Anderson's firsthand account of the raid on Harpers Ferry led by John Brown on October 16, 1859. The raid on the armory was a core aspect of Brown's strategy of anti-slavery warfare which would have provided militants with arms against the forces of the decadent slaveholding aristocracy. Militarily defeated but morally and politically victorious, Brown's raid served as the prelude for the impeding Civil War which would end slavery and consummate the victory of the bourgeois-democratic revolution in the United States.

The Civil War in the United States is a compilation of writings and letters by Marx and Engels, including articles originally published in the New York Daily Tribune. Marx and Engels analyze the causes of the war, the alignment of class forces in the United States, and the support for the abolition of slavery by the international proletariat, as well as comment militarily on the course of the war. Central is Marx's and Engels' fervent and direct support for the liberation of the slaves, which would ultimately strengthen the American proletariat and its mission of overthrowing the bourgeoisie. Where appropriate, Prairie Fire Publishing has improved the translation of documents according to authorized translations released after the original 1937 International Publishers edition.

Sale Sold out

Prairie Fire Publishing is proud to present the first English edition of The Albanian Revisionism of João Amazonas and His “Demolishing” Critique of Maoism. Written in 2006 by Brazilian Communist militant Albenzio Dias de Carvalho, this work “is a true settling of accounts between Marxism–Leninism–Maoism (the Marxism of today) and revisionism.” De Carvalho defends Maoism by upholding the law of contradiction as the sole fundamental law of dialectics, applying it to the class struggle and particularly the two-line struggle inside the Communist Party, and outlining the process of capitalist restoration in the Soviet Union and China. Study of this document is important to understand the ideology of the proletariat today and its leading role in the new wave of the world proletarian revolution, sweeping away imperialism, reaction, and revisionism.
