Download or read book Trotsky written by Ernest Mandel and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leon Trotsky was the most important contributor to the development of revolutionary Marxism this century, after Lenin. As exiled militant or Soviet statesman, party organizer or public orator, as political analyst, soldier or commentator on cultural trends, he was centrally involved in the world-historic upheavals of his time and foremost among the interpreters of their significance for socialism. Yet the fate of his achievement was dramatically discrepant from Lenin's. At the latter's death in 1924, his revolutionary authority was at its zenith. In the Soviet Union his writings were consecrated as repository of a finished dogma, 'Leninism'. Abroad, his thought was interpreted in way much closer to its own original spirit by Georg Lukcs, whose remarkable Lenin sought to elicit its unity and actuality for a later revolutionary generation. In polar contrast, factional assault, official disgrace and proscription, anathema and slander, were the conditions of Trotsky's later life and activity-until his assassination in 1940-and the unvarying background of any reaffirmation of his heritage for decades afterwards. Systematic publication of his writings was beyond the means of his political followers-whose internal discussions of his ides were supplemented only by the attentions of liberal (where not reactionary) academics. In the last decade, however, with the resurgence of the political formations associated with his name, Trotsky's political role and ideas have again become topics of vigorous debate among socialists. Ernest Mandel's book makes possible a necessary extension of this debate by providing the first ever synthetic account of the development of Trotsky's Marxism in its successive encounters with the key problems and crises of the epoch. The Russian revolution and the theme of uneven development, the construction of revolutionary parties, the struggle against fascism and imperialism at large, the nature of Stalinism and the prospect of a full socialist democracy, are all discussed in a compact study that makes a fitting and long overdue counterpart to Lukcs's historic study of fifty years ago.
Book Synopsis Leon Trotsky and the Politics of Economic Isolation by : Richard B. Day
Download or read book Leon Trotsky and the Politics of Economic Isolation written by Richard B. Day and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1973 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A highly original and controversial examination of events in Soviet Russia from 1917 to 1927 in which Professor Day challenges both the standard Trotskyite and Stalinist interpretations of the period. At the same time he rejects the traditional emphasis on Trotsky's concept of Permanent Revolution and argues that a Marxist theorist is essential. Professor Day concentrates upon the economic implications of revolutionary Russia's isolation from Europe. How to build socialism - in a backward, war-ravaged society, without aid from the West: this problem lay behind many of the most important political conflicts of Soviet Russia's formative years.
Download or read book The Prophet written by Isaac Deutscher and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 1028 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 3-part biography of Leon Trotsky was hailed by Graham Greene as one of “the greatest . . . in the English language”—a must read for those interested in the history of Soviet Russia and international communism. Few political figures of the twentieth century have aroused such intensities of fierce admiration and reactionary fear as Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky. His extraordinary life and extensive writings have left an indelible mark on the revolutionary consciousness. Yet there was once a danger that his life and influence would be relegated to the footnotes of history. Published over the course of ten years, beginning in 1954, Deutscher’s magisterial three-volume biography turned back the tide of Stalin’s propaganda, and has since been praised by everyone from Tony Blair to Graham Greene. In this definitive work, now reissued in a single volume, Trotsky’s true stature emerges as the most heroic, and ultimately tragic, character of the Russian Revolution.

Download or read book My Life written by Leon Trotsky and published by Wellred Books. This book was released on 2023-03-02 with total page 719 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since My Life was first published it has been regarded as a unique political, literary and human document. Written in the first year of Trotsky's exile in Turkey, it contains the earliest authoritative account of the rise of Stalinism and the expulsion of the Left Opposition, who heroically fought for the ideas and traditions of Lenin. Trotsky's exile is the culmination of a narrative which moves from his childhood, his education in the "universities" of Tsarist prisons, Siberia and then foreign exile - to his involvement in the European revolutionary movement and his central role in the tempestuous 1905 revolution and the Bolshevik victory in October 1917 and the civil war which followed. The work concludes with his deportation and exile. With an introduction by Alan Woods and a preface by Trotsky's grandson, Vsievolod Volkov.

Book Synopsis The Ideas of Leon Trotsky by : Hillel Ticktin
Download or read book The Ideas of Leon Trotsky written by Hillel Ticktin and published by Humanities Press International. This book was released on 1995 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As its first and most daring theorist, and later its most penetrating left-wing critic, Leon Trotsky will for ever be associated with the fate of the Russian Revolution. Yet little of real substance has ever been written about his genuine but unfinished contribution to Marxist thought in the twentieth century. This volume seeks to fill that vacuum through a critical assessment of his views on political economy, the party, revolution, philosophy and culture. This book also contains a number of brief but incisive essays on the turbulent history of the Left Opposition, as well as a lively and iconoclastic discussion of the way his ideas have been interpreted - and misinterpreted - by both friends and enemies alike. The last section of the volume brings to the English-speaking world previously untranslated material by Trotsky on his mature reflections on the world economy in the interwar period. Neither crude polemic nor simple-minded hagiography, The Ideas of Leon Trotsky fills a major gap in our understanding of one of the most controversial thinkers of our age."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Gramsci and Trotsky in the Shadow of Stalinism by : Emanuele Saccarelli
Download or read book Gramsci and Trotsky in the Shadow of Stalinism written by Emanuele Saccarelli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-02-28 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the legacy of Antonio Gramsci and Leon Trotsky in the shadow of Stalinism in order to reassess the very different and distorted academic reception of the two figures, as well as to contribute to the revitalization of Marxism for our time. While Gramsci and Trotsky lived and died in a similar fashion, as revolutionary Marxist leaders and theoreticians, their reception in academia could not be more different. Gramsci has become tremendously popular, becoming a central figure in many disciplines, while Trotsky remains largely ignored. Saccarelli argues that not only is Gramsci popular for the wrong reasons--being routinely distorted and depoliticized--even when rescued from his contemporary users, Gramsci remains inadequate. Conversely, the fact that Trotsky remains beyond the pale of "theory" is a terrible indictment of the current state of academic thinking.
Book Synopsis Results and Prospects by : Leon Trotsky

Book excerpt: In response to criticism from Soviet politician Karl Radek, Leon Trotsky wrote the essay "The Permanent Revolution". Following Trotsky's expulsion from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1927, The Left Opposition released the text in Russian. This was written following the death of Vladimir Lenin, which started a power struggle among the Communist Party of the Soviet Union's military, bureaucratic, and legislative branches. General Secretary Joseph Stalin created a political partnership with Trotsky opponents Lev Kamenev, Zinnoviev, and Nikolai Bukharin inside The Politburo and The Central Committee. Stalin's bloc followed an isolationist ideology known as Socialism in One Country, which prioritized economic growth above global upheaval.
