«Lo que no puede durar en el Partido Comunista» is the political essay by Louis Althusser, published in 1978 by Siglo Veintiuno de España in paperback.
In this essay, Louis Althusser examines the situation of the French Communist Party in the late 1970s and reflects, from a Marxist perspective, on what, in his view, can no longer be maintained in its organization and political line. The essay is a critical intervention in the communist debate and argues for the need to revise the party.
Translation by Pedro Vilanova Trías. Original title: «Ce qui ne peut plus durer dans le Parti communiste». Spanish edition, 114 pages.
For readers interested in political philosophy, Marxism, and the communist debate of the late 1970s.
Louis Pierre Althusser was a French Marxist philosopher who studied at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris, where he eventually became professor of philosophy. Althusser's life was marked by periods of intense mental illness. In 1980, he killed his wife, the sociologist Hélène Rytmann, by strangling her. He was declared unfit to stand trial due to insanity and committed to a psychiatric hospital for three years. He did little further academic work, dying in 1990.
