The Rosa Luxemburg Myth: A Critique of Luxemburg’s Politics in Poland
(1893–1919)


Written by Eric Blanc, who is now in NYU's sociology department along 
with other geniuses like Vivek Chibber and various ISO members where 
they get trained in Political Marxism. How this department ended up 
becoming a beacon for Marxists is an enduring mystery. The chairman was 
subbed to Marxmail a while back.

The Rosa Luxemburg Myth: A Critique of Luxemburg’s Politics in Poland
(1893–1919)

ABSTRACT:
This article challenges widespread uncritical portrayals of Rosa Luxemburg.
By examining the politics and practices of Luxemburg and her SDKPiL party
in Poland, I show that their commitment to proletarian emancipation was
undermined by sectarian and doctrinaire tendencies that contributed to the
defeat of Poland’s workers’ revolutions in 1905 and 1918–19. A critical
analysis of their approaches to the national question, the Polish Socialist
Party, German Social Democracy, and the role of the revolutionary party,
undermines the prevailing romanticisation of Luxemburg. I argue that the
Polish Socialist Party, Luxemburg’s main political rival, posed a viable
Marxist alternative for Poland’s revolutionary movement.
