With this now-classic work, Lenin (Rus. Ленин, Владимир Ильич) aimed to encapsulate the lessons the Bolshevik Party had learned from its involvement in three revolutions in 12 years--in a manner that European Communists could relate to, for it was to them he was speaking. He also further develops the theory of what the "dictatorship of the proletariat" means and stresses that the primary danger for the working-class movement in general is opportunism on the one hand, and anti-Marxist ultraleftism on the other.
About the Author
Vladimir Lenin founded the ***Russian Communist Party (Rus. Коммунистическая партия Советского Союза)***, led the Bolshevik Revolution and was the architect of the Soviet state. He was the posthumous source of "Leninism," the doctrine codified and conjoined with Marx's works by Lenin’s successors to form Marxism-Leninism, which became the Communist worldview. He has been regarded as the greatest revolutionary leader and thinker since Marx.
