Searching for Socialism

Searching for Socialism will be extremely useful to socialists and Labour members for years to come. It will be required reading for those new to socialist politics. – Elliot Dugdale * The World Transformed *Panitch and Leys have understood a lot of what happened and what went wrong - including the dysfunction at the very top, the full story of which has yet to be told. – Mike Phipps * Labour Hub *Leo Panitch and Colin Leys … confront the weaknesses of Corbynism against the background of the strengths which it shares with Bennism and which distinguish both from the previous experiences of more traditional Labour lefts. – Stephen Marks * Labour Briefing *Throughout the book the authors emphasise the importance of extending democracy both within the Labour Party and in society, and in this they are to be applauded. – David Lane * LSE Review of Books *Searching for Socialism is extremely articulate and well researched. It should be widely read by socialists both within the Labour Party and outside. – Camilla Royle * Socialist Review *
