"Imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism."
"The electrification of the whole country is the only way to overcome the backwardness of Russia."
"There is no 'democracy' in the abstract, there is only class democracy."
"The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation."
"We consider it our duty to suppress the resistance of the exploiters by force."
Russian revolutionary who led the October 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and founded the Soviet state; What Is to Be Done? (1902) shaped 20th-century revolutionary practice. Closely associated with Leon Trotsky (his Red Army organizer and 1917 partner) and Karl Marx (the source Lenin claimed (and adapted)). For an intellectual contrast, see Karl Popper, Austrian-British philosopher — Popper's The Open Society and Its Enemies (1945) systematically attacked Marx-and-Lenin 'historical inevitability' as the philosophical structure that produces totalitarianism — Lenin's vanguard-party doctrine is Popper's primary 20th-century target.
