Bauer's magisterial work—available in English for the first time in full—charts the evolution of three simultaneous, overlapping revolutionary waves: a national revolution for self-determination, which brought down imperial Austro-Hungary; a bourgeois revolution for parliamentary republics and universal suffrage; and a social revolution for workers' control, factory councils, and industrial democracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe brief but crowning achievement of Red Vienna, alongside Bauer's unique theorisation of an \"integral socialism\"—an attempted synthesis of revolutionary communism and social democracy—is a vital part of the left's intellectual and historical heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday, as movements once again struggle with questions of reform or revolution, political strategy, and state power, this is a crucial resource.
