What if everything you thought you knew about socialism was wrong? Socialism: the 100-Year-Old Misnomer invites you to rethink a century of political and cultural myth-making. Dana Neacşu distinguishes real socialism--rooted in democracy and wealth redistribution--from its authoritarian counterfeit: Soviet-style state capitalism. Drawing on political theory, political economy, law, and culture, and using layered textual analysis, Neacşu exposes how language, ideology, and legal systems conspired to mislabel repression as revolution. Featuring rare visuals and sharp close readings, this book equips you to separate fact from fiction and rethink what justice, ownership, and power could truly mean.
