“Bogdan Denitch has written a cogent and realistic analysis of the prospects for a ‘new Europe,’ from a roughly social democratic point of view. His work shows an intimate acquaintance with the political trends and social developments of contemporary Europe, and not the least of its virtues is a readiness to be critical of the political tradition from which he himself writes.” -- Irving Howe
