Among the key ideas that Bogdanov develops is the principle of ‘socio-morphism’ – that forms of thought are modelled on forms of labour and economic relationships. He also carries on polemics with other philosophical trends.<br><br><b>Volume 3: <i>Political Writings <a href="tel:%281904" value="+661904" target="_blank">(1904</a> to <a href="tel:1928" value="+661928" target="_blank">1928</a>)</i></b><br>This volume will include some of Bogdanov’s general writings on liberalism and Menshevism, but will be primarily devoted to tracing the divergence between Lenin and Bogdanov which culminated in the formation of the Vpered group of the RSDLP which contested Lenin’s claim to be the standard bearer of true Bolshevism. Materials will include Bogdanov’s analysis of the split within Bolshevism; his writings on the First World War (where he provided the first definition of “War Communism”); his commentaries on the February Revolution and on Lenin’s seizure of power and his interpretation of social and political developments after October <a href="tel:1917" value="+661917" target="_blank">1917</a>, notably his writings on the emergence in Soviet Russia of a “new class”.<br><br><b>Volume 4: <i>The Fall of Great Fetishism: The Contemporary Crisis of Ideology</i></b><br>This volume will provide the philosophical aspect of Bogdanov’s break with Lenin. It will contain <i>The Adventures of a Certain Philosophical School</i>, <i>Fall of the Great Fetishism</i> (which includes Bogdanov’s response to Lenin’s<i>Materialism and Empiriocriticism</i>), and a selection of shorter essays on philosophy.<br><br><b>Volume 5: <i>The Cultural Tasks of Our Time: Essays on Proletarian Culture </i></b><br>Bogdanov’s key writings on Proletarian Culture, including <i>The Cultural Tasks of Our Time</i>, selections from <i>On Proletarian Culture, 1904-1924</i>, and various articles from the journal <i>Proletarian Culture</i> and elsewhere.<br><br><b>Volume 6: <i>The Science of Social Consciousness</i></b><br>The basis of this volume will be the <a href="tel:1914" value="+661914" target="_blank">1914</a> short book called <i>The Science of Social Consciousness: A Short Course of Ideological Science in Questions and Answers</i> that lays the foundation for Bogdanov’s theory of ideology (or ‘spiritual culture’). This will be a companion volume to the volume on ‘cultural tasks’.<br><br><b>Volume 7: <i>The Tenth Anniversary of Excommunication from Marxism: Autobiographical Writings</i></b><br>This volume will include: Selections from <i>The Tenth Anniversary of Excommunication from Marxism</i> <a href="tel:%281914" value="+661914" target="_blank">(1914</a>), selections from Bogdanov’s unpublished autobiographical manuscripts, from his biographical observations concerning other revolutionary figures, and from unpublished letters and communications.<br><br><b>Volume 8: <a href="http://www.brill.com/products/book/philosophy-living-experience" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank"><i>Philosophy of Living Experience: Popular Outlines</i> [forthcoming – October 2015]</a></b><br><i>The Philosophy of Living Experience.

This is Bogdanov’s summative statement of his philosophy that anticipates his ultimate philosophical achievement: universal organisational science.<br><br><b>Volume 9: <i>Tektology: Universal Organisational Science</i></b><br>This will contain all three parts of <i>Tektologiia: Vseobshchaia organizatsionnaia nauka</i>, a pioneering work in systems theory, in which Bogdanov proposed that all physical, biological, and human sciences could be unified by treating them as systems of relationships and by seeking the organisational principles that underlie all such systems.<br><br>Volume 10: <i>Writings on Socialism</i><br>This volume will contain a variety of articles and books on socialism and political economy, including ‘On Socialism’, New World, ‘Socialism in the Present’, Problems of Socialism, The Socialism of Science: The Scientific Tasks of the Proletariat, selections from A Short Course of Economic Science, and economic essays from the 1920s.</span></div></div><div><br><br></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>
