Peter Lamb is Associate Professor of Politics and International Relations at Staffordshire University
‘Peter Lamb's Socialism is an excellent overview of how the
socialist idea has evolved and been applied in the modern
era. Clearly written and thematically organized, the book's
global perspective provides general readers as well as specialists
with food for thought about socialism's past and its prospects for
the future.’
William Smaldone, Williamette University ‘Well-researched and
accessible, the great strength of this book is the judicious
balance it strikes between demonstrating the diversity of the
socialist tradition while also insisting on its fundamental
coherence. Particularly impressive is the nuanced
consideration of associational and democratic strands too often
confined to the margins.’
Madeleine Davis, Queen Mary, University of London
