Ian Cummins meticulously traces the evolution of their thinking on questions of nationality, self-determination, and the relationship between national liberation and the broader socialist project. The work argues that Marx and Engels held nuanced, often contradictory positions on specific national struggles — from Ireland and Poland to the Slavic peoples — shaped as much by strategic political calculations as by theoretical principle. Written in a scholarly yet accessible tone, it presents a critical reassessment of how the founders of modern socialism navigated the tension between internationalist ideology and the concrete realities of national conflict. Essential reading for students of Marxist theory, European history, and political thought, the study illuminates a frequently overlooked dimension of one of the most influential intellectual partnerships in modern history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887879991515,"sku":"2026200007653-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/7c8e2870-a110-44d8-8df4-cf119656b559.png?v=1781747605","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007653-secondhand-marx-engels-and-national-movements","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
