Communism In Central Europe In The Time Of The Reformation (1897)

Communism in Central Europe in the Time of the Reformation is a historical book written by Karl Kautsky in 1897. The book explores the rise and fall of communism in Central Europe during the Reformation period, specifically in Germany, Switzerland, and Bohemia. Kautsky examines the economic, social, and political conditions that led to the emergence of communist movements, such as the Peasants' War and the Anabaptist movement. He also analyzes the different forms of communism that emerged during this period, including the communalism of the Hutterites and the radical communism of Thomas M�����ntzer. Kautsky argues that communism in Central Europe was a response to the exploitation and oppression of the feudal system and the emerging capitalist economy. However, he also highlights the challenges and limitations that communism faced, including internal divisions, external opposition, and the inability to sustain communal living in the face of economic and political pressures. Overall, Communism in Central Europe in the Time of the Reformation is a comprehensive study of the historical roots and complexities of communism in Central Europe during the Reformation period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
