Paying particular attention to the impact of social conflicts and political competitions, this book interrogates the social, cultural, institutional and historical materials from which Western ?«socialisms?» emerged. In doing so, it exposes the conceptual boundaries and restraints and narrative and discursive structures, imposed on and by Engels and Marx in the process of giving a ?«destiny?» to scientific socialism.
