Rosa Luxemburg (1871–1919) was a leader of the revolutionary proletarian wing of the German Social Democratic Party (SPD). She opposed the SPD leadership majority who sought to “reform” capitalism and fought the reformists’ patriotic capitulation to Berlin’s imperialist war aims in World War I. She hailed the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. She was killed by thugs of the SPD-backed bourgeois regime. Her writings include Rosa Luxemburg Speaks (1970) and Reform or Revolution (1970).
