The Soviet Century
by Moshe Lewin
Verso =A325 pp416
Where did it all go wrong? It's the question which comes to every old
Marxist, whether or not he or she were part of the world communist
movement in the 20th century: what was the virus which eventually
deformed the Bolshevik revolution and the Soviet Union and all the
communist parties, ruling or not, which followed the Soviet model?
Some reread Marx, concluding that all would have been well if Lenin had
not been so selective about the great man's message. Many others
conclude that the attempt to build Marxist socialism in Europe's least
industrialised society was doomed from the start. A few think that
Lenin was to blame for what he did to the Bolshevik party before the
revolution: forging it into a conspiracy whose natural style of
government could only be dictatorship.
