Whilst it may be argued that the Soviet Union achieve this feat, it can now be seen with what consequences. It is easy to blame Stalin for all the Russian ills: certainly he was incapable of rectifying them but, Lenin had already started to veer from the path before Stalin's leadership.
It is important to remember that this book is almost 50 years old because there is a casual sexism that is rather breathtaking from a current perspective. A good socialist was able to write that Luxemburg's views were perhaps too soft and feminist.
Worth the read anyway...… (altro)
