But few are fully aware of socialism 's revolutionary history. For this reason, an appreciation of the Second International--often called the Socialist International--during its Marxist years is particularly relevant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom 1889 to 1912 resolutions of the Second International helped disseminate and popularize a revolutionary aim: the overturn of capitalism and its replacement by the democratic rule of the working class, as a first step toward socialism. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite weaknesses and contradictions that led to the Second International 's collapse in 1914, its resolutions during these years remain a resource for those studying the socialist movement 's history and objectives. Many of the topics dealt with--war and militarism, immigration, trade unions and labor legislation, women 's rights, colonialism, socialist strategy and tactics--remain just as relevant today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is the first English-language collection ever assembled of all the resolutions adopted by congresses of the Second International in its Marxist years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMike Taber has edited and prepared a number of books related to the history of revolutionary and working-class movements--from collections of documents of the Communist International under Lenin to works by James P.
