Revolution, Defeat And Theoretical Underdevelopment by Loren Goldner

The historical studies presented here examine four ideologies Leninism, Trotskyism, anarchism, and anti-imperialism still with us, however different and diffuse in form. In approaching these critically across cases from Russia, Turkey, Spain and Bolivia, the book contributes to the current renaissance of Marxism, while distancing this from the legacy of 'real existing' twentieth-century attempts at building revolutionary alternatives.
