Lenin and the Making of the Soviet State

Meer over het boek

Focusing on primary sources, this collection offers insights into Lenin's leadership during the establishment of the Soviet State from 1917 to 1922. Translated by Jeffrey Brooks and Georgiy Chernyavskiy, the documents reveal Lenin's strategic actions rather than his ideology, portraying him as a formidable political figure. Supplementary materials, including headnotes, a chronology, and discussion questions, enhance understanding and encourage critical analysis of Lenin's significant impact on global history and contemporary social and political movements.
