Daniel Bensad: From the Actuality of Revolution to the Melancholic Wager is the first systematic full-length study of Bensad's renovation of Marxism. Bensad, a student leader during the May '68 revolt and founder of the Ligue communiste rvolutionnaire (LCR), was an exemplar of a creative and open liberatory Marxism, leaving a vast oeuvre for a new generation of Marxists to explore.
Much of Bensad's writing remains untranslated into English, and Roso's volume offers a comprehensive critical overview of this towering thinker.
