Henryk Grossman Works, Volume 4 by Henryk Grossman

The pioneering and still relevant Marxist studies of the transition from feudalism to capitalism in this collection are, with one exception, published in English here for the first time. Before his better-known work on Marx's theories, Henryk Grossman wrote about the economic history of Galicia, the Polish province annexed by the Habsburgs, drawing on very extensive primary research. His later, devastating critique of Max Weber's argument about Protestantism and the rise of capitalism is also included in this volume.

Henryk Grossman (1881-1950) was the preeminent Marxist economist of the twentieth century. He was the founding theoretician and secretary of the Jewish Socialist Party of Galicia; a professor at the Free University of Poland; then, as a member of the Institute for Social Research, at the University of Frankfurt; and later at the University of Leipzig.

Rick Kuhn is a member of Socialist Alternative in Australia. In addition to numerous other publications, he wrote the Deutscher Prize winning biography Henryk Grossman and the Recovery of Marxism, co-authored Labor's Conflict: Big Business, Workers and the Politics of Class and edited Class and Struggle in Australia.
