Communism. An Alternative Modemity?

  • TITLU în română: Comunismul. O modernitate alternativă?
  • Subiect: The aim of this article is to discuss the relation between the concepts of modernization/ modernity and the idea of communism as an alternative (or not) route to create a modern world. In the first part of the study I deal with the generic notions of modernity and modernization as they were defined by various researchers from distinct areas: historians, philosophers, politologists, sociologists, anthropologists. Secondly, my aim is to understand whether or not the systems and mechanisms imagined by Karl Marx, Friedriech Engels, Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin had the same modern origins and aspirations as the capitalist system or were they something totally different? Finally, I am interested in the way that scholars that studied this particular subject relate with the issue of the relationship between communism and modernity.
