By Harry Harmer
In a world in which capitalism is presented as all that exists, the writer, speaker and agitator Rosa Luxemburg - murdered in Berlin by an unholy alliance of Right and Left in 1919 - is the last heroine of revolutionary socialism.
Did Luxemburg, a contemporary of Lenin and Trotsky, offer a genuine alternative, a libertarian and democratic socialism that might have saved the 20th century from scourges of depression, dictatorship and war? Or was she the lifelong victim of an illusion, a misreading of history that led her inexorably to a bloody death?
This biography takes a fresh view, re-examining Luxemburg's tempestuous career and complex personal life, posing new questions about her politics and her dream of socialism.
Harry Harmer is the author of Tom Paine: The Life of Revolutionary. Among his other books are Martin Luther King, The Longman Companion of the Labour Party and The Longman Companion to Slavery, Emancipation and Civil Rights.
