More from Leon Trotsky
"The bureaucracy, by its very nature, is conservative and seeks to preserve its own privileges."
"The bureaucracy, which has taken over the leadership of the party and the state, has become an obstacle to the further development of the revolution."
"The Soviet Union is a degenerated workers' state."
"Where force is necessary, there it is not a question of convincing, but of breaking."
"The permanent revolution, in the Marxian sense, means that the revolution does not stop at the democratic stage but goes over to the socialist stage."
About Leon Trotsky (1879-1940)
Russian revolutionary, Red Army organizer, and theorist of permanent revolution who lost the post-Lenin succession struggle and was assassinated in Mexico in 1940. Closely associated with Vladimir Lenin (revolutionary partner and 1917 ally). For an intellectual contrast, see Joseph Stalin, Soviet leader (1924-1953) — Stalin exiled Trotsky in 1929, expunged him from Soviet history, and ordered his Mexico City ice-pick assassination in 1940. Their Permanent Revolution vs Socialism in One Country debate decided the Soviet 1920s succession — and Stalinist orthodoxy was defined by the loser's elimination.
