Rosa Luxemburg and Her Ideas:

Engaging the Left and Impacting the World

Rosa Luxemburg dedicated her life to the fight against war, poverty, exploitation and

any kind of suppression. Yet today in the age of neo-liberalism, we have the same

problems as in the beginning of the 20th century. Luxemburg, a versatile Marxist

theoretician, excellent journalist, and effective agitator has left us a body of work that

may support and impact on the present left. We invite you to present relevant papers

on the life and work of Rosa Luxemburg and her close comrades.

Rosa Luxemburg (1871–1919) is widely regarded as one of the most creative writers

of modern socialism and the foremost female theoretician of European radicalism.

Her wide-ranging and incisive works, which include studies on capitalism’s inherent

drive for global expansion, the relation between spontaneity and organization, and the

inseparability of democracy and socialism, have made her a pole of attraction for

theorists and activists around the world. Her fiercely independent intellect and

uncompromising defense of human liberty speaks more powerfully to our era than to

any other.

Volume II contains a new English translation of Luxemburg’s most important book,

her theoretical masterpiece, The Accumulation of Capital (1913) as well as her

response to its critics. Taken together, they constitute one of the most important

Marxist studies of the globalization of capital.
