Reonsidering the legacy of LeninBy Paratrim1 CustomerAn analysis of Lenin's thought and its application to 21 st century anti-capitalist movements and activists. It is a bit difficult in sections; where the author presupposes a knowledge of Eastern European scholarship and especially Hungarian writers. It does answer the question that Lenin; especially the Hegelian influenced; dialectical Lenin; is very important in reassessing the Marxian legacy for the European Left. The influence of Gramsci and Lukacs are also felt throughout the book. I found the book to be very insightful and certainly a balanced approach; that we in the West must reevaluate the links between Lenin and Stalin; and the responsibility of Lenin for the State Socialism that later developed in the Soviet Union. We have consigned Lenin to the dustbin of history in the wake of the Cold War. Maybe it is time to reassess his usefulness as a critic of of capitalism and as a theorist of the transformation of capitalism into the next social and economic system; whether that be Socialism; or something else.2 of 23 people found the following review helpful.
