'Daniel Singer' (September 26, 1926 – December 2, 2000) was a socialist writer and journalist. He was, perhaps, best known for his articles for ''The Nation'' in the United States and for ''The Economist'' in Britain. His posthumous book ''Deserter from Death'' is published by Nation Books.
The Guardian's obituary reported, that: 'At his request, the announcement of his death was accompanied by a quotation from Rosa Luxemburg : "Tomorrow, the revolution will raise its head again, Proclaiming to your horror amidst a blaze of trumpets, I was, I am, I always shall be."'

★ "Radical need not mean sure of itself ; nor does it rule out compromises and calculations. But a 'Luxemburgist socialist' (the definition I like best) could not resign himself to the idea that with the technological genius at our disposal we are unable to build a different world. Nor can we accept the fashion that capitalism will vanish without a vast social movement from below".

★ While the totalitarian nature of Stalin's Russia is undeniable, I find the thesis of "totalitarian twins" both wrong and unproductive. [1]
