description For the inauguration of the new headquarters of the Instituto Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung in São Paulo, Paul Singer, Michael Löwy, Angela Mendes de Almeida, Isabel Loureiro, Gilmar Mauro and Paulo Arantes gave interviews for a video about the Polish revolutionary. The book consists of these interviews and a presentation. More than the impact of Rosa Luxemburg's thought, it is a reflection on the impasses of the Brazilian left. The first interview is with Paul Singer, coordinator of the Solidarity Economy Secretariat of the Ministry of Labor during the Lula government. Rosa Luxemburg's fundamental point, when she would have surpassed Marx, was to demonstrate that “there has never been a single mode of production in the world. There have always been different modes of production that interact.” That is why there are “germs of socialism within capitalist society”, which makes possible the “PT socialist vision that is the Solidarity Economy”, for which “the commodity itself has no problem”.

Para a inauguração da nova sede do Instituto Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung em São Paulo, Paul Singer, Michael Löwy, Angela Mendes de Almeida, Isabel Loureiro, Gilmar Mauro e Paulo Arantes concederam entrevistas para um vídeo sobre a revolucionária polaca. O livro é composto por essas entrevistas e uma apresentação. Mais do que do impacto do pensamento de Rosa Luxemburgo, trata-se de uma reflexão acerca dos impasses da esquerda brasileira. A primeira entrevista é de Paul Singer, coordenador da Secretaria de Economia Solidária do Ministério do Trabalho do governo Lula. O fundamental de Rosa Luxemburgo, quando ela teria superado Marx, foi demonstrar que “nunca houve um modo de produção único no mundo. Sempre houve diferentes modos de produção que interagem”. Por isso há “germes de socialismo no interior da sociedade capitalista”, o que viabiliza a “visão socialista petista que é a Economia Solidária”, para a qual “a mercadoria em si não tem problema nenhum”.
