The Constitution of Socialism

More than twenty years after the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the disappearance of Marxism as a (supposed) state ideology, this peer-reviewed book series attempts to meet the need for a serious and long-term Marxist book publishing program by releasing original monographs, newly translated texts, and reprints of "classics."

To revive the fortunes of socialism we must articulate a credible and attractive alternative. The Constitution of Socialism takes a decisive step in this direction.

Offering an original synthesis of socialism and republicanism, the book discusses how society can move beyond capitalism. It outlines an institutional and political framework for a socialist future, in which collective decision-making about the use and allocation of resources directly responds to social interests. Through institutional design, this study explores the feasibility criteria of post-capitalism and sketches the contours and features of a viable model of socialism.
