#161 The History of the SPD w/ Ben Lewis Pt 1

This week we talk with Ben Lewis, Germanist, Historian, and the man behind Marxism Translated. We discuss the insanely complex history of the SPD, how WW1 detonated the contradictions in the party, and the history of the shattered remnants as they got hit again with the impact of the Russian Revolution.
