A speaking aristocracy
Michael Harrington was a sharp, ecclectic and generous thinker and writer - a socialist who managed to be an activist but avoid many of the traps of a Leninist model of the vanguard party leading the struggle on behalf of the ignorant masses. This book has certainly aged, with its focus on the US crisis of the mid 1970s - but if step past those details there is a huge amount of good material here of the kind the Left needs to work with in the current time; there are, of course, nearly 40 years after the event, no answers but there are really good tools to think with in a way that avoids much of the intellectualism and sectarianism of acativist and academic Marxism. What's more, his 8 part outline of the 'Marxist Paradigm' in chapter 7 remains one of the clearest ways into understanding Marxism for newcomers.
