r. Vladimir Lenin (1 янв 1917 г. – 1 янв 1924 г.)

Описание:

Vladimir Lenin was a Communist leader during the Russian Civil War. As the provisional government faltered, Vladimir Lenin rose to power. He turned against imperial Russia after his brother was executed for plotting to kill Alexander III. He studied Marxist socialism and modernized Marx’s revolutionary philosophy. He believed only violent revolution could destroy capitalism and denounced revisionism. He thought a Communist revolution was possible even in an agrarian country like Russia and that peasants could take the place of the working class. He believed that the possibility of revolution was determined more by human leadership than by historical laws and thus called for a highly disciplined workers’ party strictly controlled by a small, dedicated elite of intellectuals and professional revolutionaries that would not stop until revolution brought it to power. His ideas changed the way future revolutionaries engaged in radical revolt worldwide. Contrary to most other Marxists, Lenin wanted a small party dedicated to revolution. Russian Marxists thus split into Lenin’s Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks.
