False Promises: A Review
Glaberman, Martin
http://www.connexions.org/CxArchive/MIA/glaberman/1974/02/falsepromises.htmhttp://www.marxists.org/archive/glaberman/1974/02/falsepromises.htm Publisher: Liberation Year Published: 1974 Resource Type: Pamphlet Cx Number: CX10638 False Promises is a strange book. Despite a certain carelessness of presentation, I recommend it to all concerned with the working class for its extensive documentation of the working-class experience, at work, in the larger society, and in the unions. It is imbued with the conception that freedom is the fundamental quality of revolutionary change and it rejects the strangling doctrines and structures of the union movement and of the vanguard parties. Yet it cannot overcome a conception of working-class consciousness which reduces workers to victims and consciousness to verbalizations. Subject Headings |
