Marxism has traditionally viewed history as essentially a one-directional process. Capitalism inevitably generates the forces which will in due course produce socialism; and socialism, once established, equally inevitably evolves toward the full classless society of communism. To be sure, this process was never thought of as smooth and continuous. The transition from capitalism to socialism would have to be a revolutionary jump, and counter-revolutionary setbacks could not be ruled out. But the fundamental direction of change was never doubted.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.Click here to purchase a PDF version of this article at the Monthly Review website
