O Materialismo Dialético e o Materialismo Histórico by Joseph Stalin

3.0

While those with a more in depth experience with Marxism will find not much new ground being tread here, newcomers will find Stalin's analysis of dialectics to be succinct and easily digestible. This is no mistake: the original purpose for the writing of Dialectical and Historical Materialism is the same for much of Stalin's other works -- a crash-course material to be absorbed by the rapidly modernizing citizenry of the USSR as it transformed from a feudal to a socialist society. While blunt, for those who have struggled with the concept of dialectics, this may be an essential reading for you.
