Wilhelm Liebknecht and German Social Democracy is a representative sampling of Liebknecht's most influential works. Wherever possible, the selections from Liebknecht's work are presented unedited so that readers may take in the full extent of his original meaning. Each piece is prefaced by an introduction from William A. Pelz to put the material in context. These writings comprise an important research tool for political and labour historians and others concerned with the development of mass movements in 19th and 20th-century Europe.
