Terrorism and Communism. Permanent Revolution

The convinced revolutionary and passionate speaker Leon Davidovich Trotsky was renowned for his ability to express his thoughts clearly and elegantly, as vividly demonstrated in the work "Terrorism and Communism." Written during the Civil War in the carriage of an... armored train, the book consistently refutes the possibility of a peaceful evolutionary transition to socialism. Trotsky traces the history of terror throughout all eras of world civilization and proves that the dominance of any class has been maintained through violence and repression. This edition also includes the book "Permanent Revolution," written during his exile, which is one of the most important theoretical works that most fully reflect his views on building socialism.
