For generations, historians of the right, left, and center have all debated the best way to understand V. I. Lenin’s role in shaping the Bolshevik party in the years leading up to the Russian Revolution. At their worst, these studies locate his influence in the forcefulness of his personality. At their best, they show how Lenin moved other Bolsheviks through patient argument and political debate. Yet remarkably few have attempted to document the ways his ideas changed, or how they were in turn shaped by the party he played such a central role in building. In this thorough, concise, and accessible introduction to Lenin’s theory and practice of revolutionary politics, Paul Le Blanc gives a vibrant sense of the historical context of the socialist movement (in Russia and abroad) from which Lenin’s ideas about revolutionary organization spring. What emerges from Le Blanc’s partisan yet measured account is an image of a collaborative, ever adaptive, and dynamically engaged network of revolutionary activists who formed the core of the Bolshevik party.

Download or read book Bolshevism written by Alan Woods and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:
There have been many books and potted histories of the Russian Revolution, either written from an anti-Bolshevik perspective, or its Stalinist mirror image, which paint a false account of the rise of Bolshevism. For them, Bolshevism is either a historical "accident" or "tragedy." Or it is portrayed erroneously as the work of one great man (Lenin) who marched single-minded toward the October Revolution. Author Alan Woods* reveals the real evolution of Bolshevism as a living struggle of various class forces, tendencies and individuals. Using a wealth of primary sources, Woods uncovers the fascinating growth and development of Bolshevism in pre-revolutionary Russia up to the seizure of power in October 1917. This is the second, expanded US edition of this monumental work. It comes at an important time, as the world economic crisis calls for a thorough study of working class history in order to educate a new generation of revolutionaries.

Grigorill Zinoviev, for a number of years Lenin's closest collaborator, was himself a central figure in the bolshevik Party's history. The lectures he gave on the 25th anniversary of the founding of its precursor, the Russian Social=Democratic Labour Party in 1898, provide a lucid account of Bolshevism's formative years up to the overthrow of Tsarism in 1917. Replaced by a succession of Stalinist falsifications, Zinoviev's history was the only Soviet work to highlight the tenacious struggle for Marxist principles that built the Bolshevik Party. Full annotate and illustrated, this new edition includes a specially written foreword which fills in the books' historical and political background, together with a glossary of names and a brief biography of the author.
