Vladimír Iljič Lenin byl klíčovou postavou ruské revoluce a vůdcem bolševické strany. Jeho raná léta byla poznamenána odhodláním k revolučnímu boji, inspirovaným rodinnou historií a filozofickými proudy své doby. Zkušenosti s útlakem rolnictva a marxistické učení ho vedly k organizování dělnických kruhů a šíření revoluční literatury. Po svém vedení říjnové revoluce se stal prvním předsedou vlády Sovětské republiky a založil Komunistickou internacionálu, přičemž ve svých posledních spisech varoval před byrokratizací státu.
The book explores the Paris Commune of 1871, highlighting its brief but impactful experiment in democracy and workers' governance. It includes Marx's address on the Commune, Lenin's reflections on its significance for building socialism, and Bertolt Brecht's poetic tribute. Additionally, it features the Manifesto of the Paris Commune's Federation of Artists, showcasing the cultural and political aspirations of the time. Together, these texts provide insights into revolutionary thought and the enduring legacy of the Commune in shaping socialist ideals.
Im Spätwerk Lenins verdichten sich Dringlichkeit und revolutionäre Schlagkraft in besonderer Weise. Dennoch stehen meist seine frühen Schriften im Rampenlicht. Der Philosoph und ausgezeichnete Lenin-Kenner Slavoj Žižek zeigt nun anhand ausgewählter Briefe, Reden und Notizen eine neue Seite des sowjetischen Regierungschefs, fernab von Personenkult und Verklärung. Anfang der Zwanzigerjahre, inmitten der letzten Wellen des russischen Bürgerkriegs, sah sich Lenin mit der größten politischen Herausforderung seines Lebens konfrontiert. Die junge Sowjetunion war nach außen wie nach innen schwach, isoliert und zerrüttet - eine neue, gemäßigte Politik musste her. In seiner scharfsichtigen, präzisen und unterhaltsamen Interpretation zieht Žižek eine Verbindung von den turbulenten Zeiten des jungen Staates bis zu gegenwärtigen ökonomischen Krisen. Angetrieben wird er von der Frage, was wir für unsere Situation von Lenin lernen können.
Scritto nell'immediata e concitata vigilia della Rivoluzione d'ottobre (che costrinse l'autore a interromperne la stesura) Stato e rivoluzione resta un punto di partenza essenziale per qualsiasi ulteriore approfondimento e aggiornamento della dottrina del marxismo. Qui Lenin, con il consueto pragmatismo, affronta da un punto di vista dottrinario, storico e anche pratico l'applicazione dei principi rivoluzionari, spaziando dai casi storici dei moti del 1848 e della Comune di Parigi (1871), sino alla più stringente attualità.
Among the most influential political and social forces of the 20th century, modern communism rests firmly on philosophical, political and economic underpinnings developed by Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, later known as Lenin. In this volume, comprising the four works generally considered his most important publications, Lenin presents the goals and tactics of communism with remarkable directness and forcefulness.His first major work was The Development of Capitalism in Russia, written in prison after Lenin had been arrested for anti-government activities in 1895. Represented here by key sections, the book developed a number of crucial concepts, including the significance of the industrial proletariat as a revolutionary base. What Is to Be Done?, long regarded as the key manual of communist action, is presented complete, containing Lenin's famous dissection of the Western idea of the political party along with his own concept of a monolithic party organization devoted to achieving the goal of dictatorship of the proletariat. Also presented complete is Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism, in which Lenin examines the final "parasitic" stage of capitalism. Finally, this volume includes the complete text of The State and Revolution, Lenin's most significant work, in which he totally rejects the institution of Western democracy and presents his vision of the final perfection of communism.
