Hain proves why reports of the death of socialism were greatly exaggerated. It just needed reviving., Taking up where Tawney and Crosland left off, Hain shows practical ways in which sustained recovery of fairness, fulfillment, and freedom can be achieved in this generation., A clarion call for justice, equality, and liberty to triumph. Greed and selfishness, a widening chasm between the haves and the have-nots, indifference to climate change and poverty, threaten the very future of humankind., Hain makes the case for an active, enabling state. . . . Whether it's freeing up our greatest economic assets (people) through improved working conditions, or investing in homes, schools, childcare, and green jobs to create growth, the state must have a role. It's a point worth making--not least, as Hain says, because otherwise history is bound to repeat itself. But though he critiques the past, Hain relentlessly looks to the future, providing not just a blueprint for government but a shot in the arm for socialists struggling to recover confidence in the face of the onslaught from the right in recent years. . . . The value of this book is that it sparks the sort of lively and nuanced debate that is too often drowned out in a public discussion so dominated by neoliberal values., Indefatigably upbeat. . . . One of the most attractive aspects of Hain's politics is his international hinterland, the huge part the anti-apartheid struggle played in his life (which he has addressed poignantly in other books). With so many MPs of all parties rising through the hideously narrow world of Westminster, his decision to stand down will deprive Labour of a powerful voice in parliament. But, as Tony Benn said, perhaps he'll have more time to devote to politics., Hain makes the case for an active, enabling state. . . . Whether it's freeing up our greatest economic assets (people) through improved working conditions, or investing in homes, schools, childcare, and green jobs to create growth, the state must have a role. It's a point worth making--not least, as Hain says, because otherwise history is bound to repeat itself. But though he critiques the past, Hain relentlessly looks to the future, providing not just a blueprint for government but a shot in the arm for socialists struggling to recover confid­ence in the face of the onslaught from the right in recent years. . . . The value of this book is that it sparks the sort of lively and nuanced debate that is too often drowned out in a public discussion so dominated by neoliberal values., Fresh thinking to tackle rising inequality and environmental degradation which imperil human development today., When prominent politicians leave the House of Commons they tend to write memoirs looking back at their time in politics--but Peter Hain has chosen to write a book looking forward., A front-line politician's treatise that makes the case for democratic socialism over neoliberalism has to be welcome. Hain makes clear why there can be no going back to New Labour, if the party is to be true to its soul., The book is thoughtful and well written and it provides a useful overview of recent developments, written from a positive but critical socialist perspective., Its strength is its pace and breadth . . . . Back to the Future of Socialism is powerful, questionable, confrontational--but not dull.

Synopsis
Anthony Crosland's The Future of Socialism (1956) provided a creed for governments of the centre left. Now Peter Hain revisits this classic text and presents a stimulating political prospectus for today. It should be read by everyone interested in the future of the left., What's gone wrong with capitalism, and how should governments respond? What does the future hold for the left in the United Kingdom in the face of the austerity straitjacket around its politics and media? Anthony Crosland's The Future of Socialism provided a creed for governments of the center left until the global banking crisis. Now Peter Hain presents an evidence-based case for a radical alternative to the neoliberal economic agenda. A substantial new afterword in the paperback edition outlines what the Labour Party needs to do following the 2015 UK General Election to win again by returning to its core values of decency, social justice, equality, and prosperity for all. A rousing alternative to the neoliberal, right-wing orthodoxy of our era, Hain's book is now even more essential reading for everyone interested in the future of the left., What's gone wrong with capitalism and how should governments respond?

    1st edition, 2nd impression edition of "The Drunken Forest," by Gerald Durrell is as pictured & described. Arrived quickly & safely! Got a great deal on it! Great communication! The book, with a protective mylar cover, was wrapped in bubble wrap, then wrapped in sturdy cardboard, then placed in a rugged bubble mailer! Fort Knox in a mailer! So hard to get an early edition of this classic! So happy to add to my growing collection of nature & science books! Thank you! !!Seller Highly Recommended!!

    Exactly as described, looked brand new, great price. and packaged really well. At first was not provided a tracking number, contacted seller and they immediately responded, got tracking number but only problem I was given a tracking number for ups not usps and after reading some reviews they said they got a ups tracking and it was actually usps not ups. I was able to track it by tracking usps. Other than that small mixup everything was perfect. Will purchase from again, very happy with book
