For radicals in Europe and North America, the anti-imperialistand Chineserevolutions continued the great task of 1789, 1848, and 1870, the bourgeois revolution in Marxs terms, and the creation of nations that would release the energies and unity of purpose to create new worlds of prosperity and freedom. The nationalist focus led to an emphasis on autarkic developmentthe nation, it was said, already possessed within its own boundaries all the requirements and resources to match the accomplishments of global civilization.The overthrow of empire in the 1950s and 1960sof which the coming to power of the Chinese Communist party in 1949 was a important partseemed to augur a new era in world history, one in which the majority of the worlds population secured liberation. There was perhaps a sense in which this was true, but the reality for the majority was far removed from this giddy hope. And in the case of the ordinary Chinese, the newly liberated regime proved far more brutal and exacting than those that it had replaced (which also attained high standards of brutality and injustice). In China the great famine of 195862 was only the most spectacularly cruel and gratuitous product of that new order.For the former inhabitants of the old empires, national liberation turned out to be not liberation of all, but the creation of a new national ruling class, as often as not exploiting its position at home to make fortunes then smuggled abroad.

For generations, historians of the right, left, and center have all debated the best way to understand V. I. Lenins 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 Lenins 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 Lenins ideas about revolutionary organization spring. What emerges from Le Blancs 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.
