FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF COMMUNIST PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION

by Hermann Lueer

This book is a tribute to the collective work of the Group of International Communists of Holland. Given the experiences with state communism in Russia, their “Fundamental Principles of Communist Production and Distribution,” published in 1930, was an attempt to elaborate the economic basis of a communist society as outlined by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Although their explanations have lost none of their original topicality, their text has remained a product of its time in the way they address the literature of that period. This paper therefore attempts to reintroduce the core statements of the “Fundamental Principles of Communist Production and Distribution” into the current debate on alternatives to capitalism.
