"A stunning and inspirational tour de force." - Jared Clemons, Assistant Professor of Political Science, Temple University, USA Thousands of years of toil under the oppressive dictates of private property are culminating in the realisation of a globally integrated system of fully automated production that is set to usher in the end of exploitation of man by man, shattering the foundation of capitalism, ending artificial scarcity and unleashing humanity's full potential. Ted Reese - author of Socialism or Extinction - illuminates the '(r)evolutionary' terrain ahead, combining Marxist theory with contemporary empirical data to show that 'state monopoly capitalism' is both at once dying and birthing 'state monopoly socialism', or the 'lower communism' that precedes a stateless 'higher communism'. Abundant Material Wealth for All is a guide for navigating the seismic historical events ahead and drafts a contemporary programme that aims to serve as a central rallying point around which to unite the working masses in the final struggle for human liberation.
