Abstract

A conclusion that neatly accords with Macintyre's own political trajectory from CPA to ALP membership. In this, his final book before his death in 2021, Stuart Macintyre delivers an exemplar of explanatory history. In I The Party i , then, we find a Communist Party which could never viably aspire to lead a revolution because revolution was I a priori i impossible, but also a party which could not realistically hope to thrive as a leftwing social democratic alternative to Labor.
