520 _a"Socialism as it Is: A Survey of the World-Wide Revolutionary Movement" by William English Walling is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book offers an in-depth exploration of the Socialist movement globally, delving into its fundamental principles and real-world implications as demonstrated through the actions of various Socialist organizations and political parties. Walling strives to accurately portray the dynamics within the movement, its challenges, and its evolution, offering insight into how Socialism is understood and interpreted in different contexts. The opening of the book sets the stage for Walling's argument by emphasizing the importance of analyzing the actual activities of Socialist organizations rather than solely relying on theoretical perspectives or self-proclaimed assertions from within the movement. He outlines the misconception surrounding Socialism and argues for a clear differentiation between various forms of socialism, particularly "State Socialism," and the true revolutionary intent of the broader socialist movement. Walling asserts that understanding the contemporary Socialist agenda requires examining the historical context and practical actions of these movements, and he introduces the structure of the book that will follow, which includes analysis of both external influences on Socialism and internal struggles shaping the movement.
