Marxism and Bolshevism

Bolshevism and Stalinism

Details Rob Sewell logo 12 Jan 2010
desk_1918_better_web.jpgThe history of the Russian Revolution is intimately associated with the names of Lenin and Trotsky, its two great leaders. They attracted all the praise and they bore all the hatred. The reason for this is not difficult to understand. The October Russian Revolution, led by the Bolshevik Party, was the greatest event in history. For the first time, the workers and peasant took power into their hands, swept aside the landlords and capitalists, and proceeded to organise a democratic workers’ Soviet Republic. The authority of the new Soviet government rested upon a congress of soviets (workers’ committees) elected from factories and barracks.

Bill Landles: 65 years a revolutionary ... and counting!

Details Alan Woods logo 25 Oct 2009
Comrade Bill Landles is 85 on October 26th. By coincidence, in the old Russian calendar that is also the date of Trotsky's 130th birthday and the anniversary of the Russian revolution. This is highly appropriate because Bill has devoted the whole of his thinking life to the cause of the October Revolution and the ideas of Lenin and Trotsky.HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILL!

Leon Trotsky:1879-1940

Details Estevan Volkov logo 20 Aug 2009
leon-trotsky.jpgToday marks the 69th anniversary of the assassination of Leon Trotsky. Murdered by the cowardly hands of Stalin's henchman, Trotsky's ideas remain as relevant today as ever. We mark this anniversary by reproducing a statement issued by Estevan Volkov, Trotsky's grandson, ten years ago. In doing so we remember the final words from Trotsky's testament: "Life is beautiful. Let the future generations cleanse it of all evil, oppression and violence and enjoy it to the full."

The Living Thoughts of Karl Marx – a Nigerian point of view

Details Didi Cheeka in Lagos logo 21 Jul 2009
marx.jpgMarx has been declared dead so many times, and yet he keeps coming back again and again, the reason being that his ideas, his theories, are the only ones that can explain the present crisis of capitalism. Here a Nigerian Marxist gives his views on the relevance of Marx’s ideas today.

Ted Grant (1913 - 2006)

Details Steve Jones logo 20 Jul 2009
