Speeches to the Party

Writing in the early 1950s, Cannon discusses how class-conscious workers, in face of the conservatizing pressures of the emerging capitalist expansion and anticommunist witch-hunt, carried out effective union work and political activity to build a communist workers party. He discusses Washington's failure to achieve its goals in the Korean War and why the rulers reined in McCarthyism.Introduction by Al Hansen, notes, index.Cannon, James P. is the author of 'Speeches to the Party' with ISBN 9780873483216 and ISBN 0873483219.
