Marxism and Democracy by Michael Harrington
The purpose of Michael Harrington’s essay is to document and interpret the democratic foundations of Marxism through three different ways: first, reviewing Marx’s analyses of democracy and his political conclusions; second, dealing with Marx’s theory of democracy and capitalism; and finally, discussing bureaucratic collectivism in the [former] Soviet Union and the role of democracy in collectivized societies.
