Eclipse and Re-Emergence of the Communist Movement
έκλειψη και επανεμφάνιση του κομμουνιστικού κινήματος

The Greek edition of “Eclipse and Reemergence of the Communist Movement” was produced in 2002 and contains elements from both English editions (Black & Red, 1974 and Antagonism Press, 1998) together with additional texts by Dauvé/Barrot. Changes to some of the texts were also made, in cooperation with Dauvé.
