Ted Grant Collected Writings Vol. 2: The Inferno (1943-45)

Ted Grant2012

This collection brings together the writings of one of the 20th century’s most significant revolutionaries. In the decades following Leon Trotsky’s death in 1940, Ted Grant applied and developed the Marxist method to analyse emerging political phenomena. His theoretical contributions preserved the method of Marxism, and are of first-rate importance for revolutionaries today.

This volume spans the final years of the Second World War, from 1943–45. As the imperialist slaughter reached new levels of devastation, and the conflict shifted decisively to the Eastern Front, the war became a titanic clash between the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany.

By this time, the Workers’ International League (WIL) had emerged as the leading Trotskyist organisation in Britain. Its cadres were preparing for the momentous events ahead: the impending collapse of the Axis powers and the revolutionary upheavals expected to shake Europe and the wider world. The formation of the Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP) in early 1944 marked the culmination of years of patient work by Ted Grant and the WIL, expressing their determination to advance from hundreds to thousands of members.

This volume offers a vivid picture of some of the most consequential years of the 20th century – years that would reshape the economic and political order for decades to come. The clarity of analysis on events in Europe and Britain, together with the debates within the Trotskyist movement, show Ted Grant reaching new heights as a revolutionary Marxist theoretician. The method and insights contained here form an invaluable resource for the struggle for socialist revolution today.
