In his latest video outlining the key events of 1917, Alan Woods - author of "Bolshevism: the Road to Revolution" - discusses the October Revolution, when the workers and peasants of Russia seized power.

Alan looks at the build up to the insurrection, which took place exactly 100 years ago on 7th November (25th October, old calendar), and explains the historic significance of the Bolshevik revolution on this centenary anniversary.
