Table of ContentsReviews"""The most brilliant theoretician of libertarian com-munism."" --Mike Davis, author of City of Quartz ""Good, solid, working-class literature."" --Noam Chomsky" The most brilliant theoretician of libertarian com-munism. --Mike Davis, author of City of Quartz Good, solid, working-class literature. --Noam Chomsky Author InformationAnton Pannekoek (1873-1960) was a Dutch astronomer, Marxist revolutionary, and key theoretician of council communism--a Marxist alternative to both Leninism and Social Democracy that instead emphasized working-class self-emancipation through workers' councils. He developed his theories through witnessing the rise and fall of Social Democracy as well as the rise and fall of the Russian and German Revolutions. He is most well-known by revolutionaries for his magnum opus Workers' Councils (AK Press, 2002) and his critical Lenin as Philosopher (Merlin Press, 1975), and by astronomers for his research of the Milky Way and astrophysics--for which he received an honorary degree from Harvard University in 1936; the Gold Medal of the Royal Astronomical Society in 1951; and had a crater on the Moon, an asteroid, and the Anton Pannekoek Institute for Astronomy at the University of Amsterdam named after him. Robyn K. Winters is a libertarian communist, amateur historian, and contributor of Working Class History. They currently work within the Canadian labour movement and reside on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
