nov 22, 1896 - Marxism

Description:

"Henriette was moved by Marx's conviction that the international working class would seize power and implement socialist methods of production. A year later, together with her husband and Gorter, she joined the Social Democratic Labour Party (sdap; Sociaal Democratische Arbeiders Partij) in the Netherlands, which had been founded in 1894. They quickly became the party's leading propagandists. Henriette and Gorter became editors of the theoretical journal De Nieuwe Tijd. She practised Marxist literary criticism and spoke at meetings."
