Lenin And The Revolutionary Party cover

Lenin's political and organisational ideas confront the reality of the labour movement and the revolutionary process. This study of Vladimir Lenin's conception of the revolutionary party, and its place in Marxist thought, gives a vibrant sense of the historical context - both Russian and international - in which Lenin's views were shaped and upon which they had such a profound impact.

Praise for Lenin and the Revolutionary Party:

"A work of unusual strength and coherence, inspired not by academic neutrality but by the deep conviction that there is much to learn from the actual ideas and experiences of Lenin and the revolutionary party he led.”
—Michael Löwy

Praise for Revolution, Democracy, Socialism:

“We desperately need the resurrection and revival of the kind of strategic thinking and principled commitment that Lenin epitomised in the era of 1917, and all that it promised. For those interested in this rebirth of the politics of alternative to capitalism, Paul Le Blanc's account of the democratic, socialist, and revolutionary Lenin will prove indispensable. Reading it is a reminder that what is, need not be, and that what has, seemingly, failed, can be reconstituted anew.”
—Bryan Palmer

Praise for Marx, Lenin and the Revolutionary Experience:

“Looking back at the tumultuous events associated with revolutionary Marxism in the past century, Paul Le Blancoffers us an insightful, sympathetic, and even-handed assessment of the sources of its dynamism as well as the causes of its decline.”
—Walden Bello
