Summary/Abstract: This paper presents a critical appraisal of a number of theoretical propositions that justify the need for social change and outline the paths to their achievement (in particular, on referred to as economic democracy). It also shows that a meaningful political struggle for the enforcement of an anticapitalist or non-capitalist alternative must meet some basic criteria (analysis of the current stage of capitalism, description of the political situation in the nation state and the existence of a political subject with a radical anti-regime programme based on the revolutionary theory).
