The Dilemmas of Lenin
Автор: Tariq Ali
Год издания: 0000
On the centenary of the Russian Revolution, Tariq Ali paints an illuminating portrait of Lenin At the end of his life, Lenin wrote ‘we didn’t know everything’, acknowledging the dilemmas he faced on the road to revolution in 1917 and beyond. In this unusual exploration of the crises that Lenin overcame, the decisions he made, and actions that he took, Tariq Ali reveals an insightful political portrait of this most exemplary leader. From the first stirrings of revolutionary fervour, Lenin sought the right answer to a series of dilemmas that he faced and that still resonate with us today: Is terrorism ever a useful tactic? Can imperial wars ever be supported? What sort of political party do we need? What is the moral justification for seizing power? How does one overcome the burden of history? What role does friendship or love play in revolution? How do you establish a legacy that lasts? Ali reveals that no other modern thinker than Lenin has better understood, nor more clearly articulated, the need to change the world. But do Lenin’s ideas, as expressed in his actions and his political writings, still have any significance for us? In this centenary year of the Russian Revolution, this book raises important questions related to political representation and the popular institutions necessary to challenge capitalism today.

Lenin rongis
Автор: Catherine Merridale
Год издания:
1917. aastaks tundus, et soda Euroopas kestab igavesti. Molemad vaenupooled votsid kasutusele uusi relvi ja taktikaid ja ideid, et lopetada patiseis, mis Euroopat havitas. Saksa valitsuses torkas vaikesele grupile pahe hiilgav mote: miks mitte kulvata veel enam segadust juba niigi kaootilisel Venemaal, saates Vladimir Iljits Lenini, tol hetkel turvaliselt Sveitsis redutava kurikuulsa aarmuslase, kodumaale tagasi. Catherine Merridale'i «Lenin rongis» taaselustab Lenini ebatavalise rongireisi Zurichist, kus ta ohutuna eksiilis viibis, labi sojast laastatud Saksamaa kaugele pohja, Lapimaa piirile ja sealt edasi Petrogradi Soome vaksalisse, kus teda tervitas juba ekstaatiline rahvahulk. Merridale poimib oskuslikult ja asjatundlikult rongi ja selle eriskummaliste reisijate loo kaasakiskuva ulevaatega nuudseks pooleldi unustuse holma vajunud Vene revolutsioonist ning naitab, kuidas need kaks kokku said. Paljud pidasid Leninit kasulikuks idioodiks, paljud arvasid, et ta arreteeritakse ja hukatakse niipea, kui kodumaale jouab, paljud, et tal oli vahe jargijaid ja veel vahem mojuvoimu. Nagu selgus, eksisid nad koik rangalt.
