Red Star Over the Third World by Vijay Prashad
An inspiring reminder of the great strength of twentieth century Communism in the Global South.
'This is the real story of the Russian Revolution and no one tells it more powerfully, poetically, and honestly than Vijay Prashad' -- Robin DG. Kelley, author of 'Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination'
'An original and much needed analysis of an important but neglected aspect of the legacy of the Russian Revolution. Prashad insightfully explains how Lenin's development of Marxist theory has inspired revolutionary practice in the Third World. Essential reading' -- Mary Davis, Marx Memorial Library
'An almost perfect mix of history and analysis in this slender book ... packs a revolutionary punch' -- Ron Jacobs, CounterPunch
