Title: Russia
Subtitle: a Marxist analysis
Description: cover text

"The most important event in the history of Socialism was, undoubtedly the Russian Revolution. For the first time a modern working class presented itsel as the conscious arbiter of the fate of society, for the first time it intervened consciously in the political struggle to fashion its environment."
"But if the revolution of 1917 is of such significance to the working class in showing the route to be taken from potential power to actual power, its subsequent degeneration is of even greater significance as the cause of the deepest confusion in working class ideology that has ever existed."
