Einführung in die Nationalökonomie

Cuadernos de Pasado y Presente #35

by Rosa Luxemburg

Das durch ihren Tod unvollständig gebliebene Manuskript wurde erst 1925 publiziert. Durch eine wirtschaftsgeschichtliche Betrachtung versucht die Autorin in sechs Kapiteln das Wesen des Kapitalismus zu ergründen. Bemerkenswerterweise können ihre damaligen Gedankengänge uns heute für die Analyse der neoliberalen Durchdringung jedes Lebensbereiches dienlich sein.

Diese E-Book-Ausgabe ist für wissenschaftliches Arbeiten geeignet. Sie ist seitengetreue erfasst nach der von Paul Levi posthum 1925 in Berlin herausgegebenen Auflage und zitierfähig.

Genres: Nonfiction, Politics, German Literature

288 pages, Kindle Edition

About the author

Rosa Luxemburg (Rosalia Luxemburg, Polish: Róża Luksemburg) was a Marxist theorist, philosopher, economist and activist of Polish Jewish descent who became a naturalized German citizen. She was successively a member of the Social Democracy of the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania, the Social Democratic Party of Germany(SPD), the Independent Social Democratic Party and the Communist Party of Germany.

In 1915, after the SPD supported German involvement in World War I, she co-founded, with Karl Liebknecht, the anti-war Spartakusbund (Spartacist League). On 1 January 1919 the Spartacist League became the Communist Party of Germany (KPD). In November 1918, during the German Revolution she founded the Die Rote Fahne (The Red Flag), the central organ of the Spartacist movement.

She regarded the Spartacist uprising of January 1919 in Berlin as a blunder, but supported it after Liebknecht ordered it without her knowledge. When the revolt was crushed by the social democrat government and the Freikorps (WWI veterans defending the Weimar Republic), Luxemburg, Liebknecht and some of their supporters were captured and murdered. Luxemburg was drowned in the Landwehr Canal in Berlin. After their deaths, Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht became martyrs for Marxists. According to the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, commemoration of Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht continues to play an important role among the German far-left.

Reviews

[Emilie de Saint Martin · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not a great fan of the long historical development in the middle because there isn't a single source and it feels greatly simplified. But the first and last chapter are really good.

Ay Rosita, me costaste ovario y medio, neta.
Yo no lo llamaría "introducción", creo que para algunas personas que realmente no sepan nada puede resultar muy complicado entender varios conceptos de este libro. Es importante entender el contexto histórico en que fue escrito ya que ahora muchas cosas han cambiado; pero igual me pareció muy útil, sobretodo las comparaciones entre distintos continentes y épocas con sistemas "económicos" distintos.
Lo recomiendo? Sí pero después de haber leído otros y haberse adentrado un poco.
