"Revolution and Other Essays" by Jack London is a collection of essays written in the early 20th century that explores themes of socialism, class struggle, and the human condition. The opening essay, "Revolution," discusses the burgeoning global revolution of the working class, emphasizing the solidarity among millions of socialists united under a common cause to overthrow existing power structures and capitalist societies. The beginning of the book introduces readers to the concept of a world revolution, where millions of "comrades" across various nations rally together, united against their oppressors. London contrasts the burgeoning working-class movement with the historical revolutions, proclaiming this one as unique and powerful. He lays out the shared sentiments among socialists, illustrating their resolve against bourgeois ideals and their desire for a society where the working class takes the reins of power. The essay sets a tone of urgency and necessity, framing this collective uprising as not just inevitable, but as a fight for justice and humanity amidst oppression and exploitation.
