Terrorism and Communism by Leon Trotsky

Terrorism and Communism by Leon Trotsky

Written in the white heat of revolutionary Russia's Civil War, Trotsky's Terrorism and Communism is one of the most potent defenses of revolutionary dictatorship. In his provocative commentary to this new edition the philosopher Slavoj AAiAAek argues that Trotsky's attack on the illusions of liberal democracy has a vital relevance today.

Leon Trotsky was a Marxist writer, theorist and leader. He organized the insurrection of the October Revolution in Russia in 1917 and then was the commander of the Red Army in the subsequent civil war. After Lenin's death, Trotsky led the Left Opposition against Stalin's bureaucratic counterrevolution, and was exiled in a series of countries before being assassinated in Mexico in 1940.
