Jack London’s Revolution, and Other Essays is a collection of essays written in the early 20th century, exploring themes of socialism, class struggle, and the human condition. The opening essay, "Revolution," focuses on the global uprising of the working class, emphasizing the solidarity of countless socialists united under a common goal to overturn existing power structures and capitalist societies. The book begins by introducing the concept of a world revolution, depicting millions of "comrades" from various nations coming together to stand against oppression. London contrasts this contemporary working-class movement with past revolutions, describing it as unique and powerful. He vividly illustrates the shared sentiments and resolve of socialists, highlighting their opposition to bourgeois ideals and their vision of a society where the working class takes control. This essay underscores a sense of urgency and necessity, portraying the fight for justice and humanity as an inevitable response to oppression and exploitation. "Revolution" powerfully advocates for the unity and inevitability of the working class’s struggle, expressing passionate hope for socialist ideals and a better future.
