Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The correspondence between Karl Marx and Abraham Lincoln highlights their shared commitment to "free labor" and the abolition of slavery during the Civil War. Robin Blackburn emphasizes the significance of the German American community and international communists in opposing the Confederacy's recognition. The International Working Men's Association, emerging from this context, aimed to radicalize Lincoln's vision and promote labor rights across diverse communities. The book includes key texts and letters, alongside radical writings that critique capitalism and document the labor struggles that followed the war.
