Perspectives for Malaysia
A Marxist approach
Review of Jeyakumar Devaraj's "Malaysia at the Crossroads, a Socialist Perspective"
Jeyakumar Devaraj, member of the Central Committee of Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) and Member of Parliament for Sungai Siput, published a book on perspectives for Malaysia in August 2009. Peter Taaffe, General Secretary of the Socialist Party (CWI in England and Wales) and member of the International Secretariat of the Committee for a Workers' International, reviewed it in a letter to Jeyakumar. We are carrying a slightly edited (shortened) version of the review which deals with important questions of method, analysis and perspectives for Marxists in the struggle - to overthrow capitalism in Malaysia, Asia and worldwide.
"Malaysia at the Crossroads, A Socialist Perspective" by Jeyakumar Devaraj is available at the bookshop of the Socialist Party England and Wales or the PSM.
