PRE-ORDER - NEW! - Ted Grant Writings Volume 3

After more than a decade since the publication of volume 2, Wellred is publishing Ted Grant's Collected Writings Volume 3!

The third volume of Ted Grant’s Collected Works, covering the pivotal years of 1945 and 1946, examines a fundamental turning point in world history – and in the Trotskyist movement itself. With the defeat of Hitler, a qualitatively new period opened up in the development of both world capitalism and the Soviet Union.

Ted Grant and the Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP) were alone in grasping the significance of this shift. Instead of the anticipated immediate slump, Stalinism and reformism emerged strengthened, with far-reaching consequences for the Marxist tendency. While the leadership of the Fourth International around James Cannon, Ernest Mandel, and Pierre Frank clung to the perspective of capitalism’s imminent collapse – leading to a series of disastrous theoretical conclusions that sowed the seeds of destruction of the Fourth International – Ted stood virtually alone in defending a correct outlook and the genuine method of Marxism.
