The State and Revolution | Classics of Marxism #3
Description
Ben, Lotta, Mia, and Peter sit down to discuss Lenin's masterpiece: The State & Revolution. Written just before the events of October 1917, with Lenin having been forced underground, it is the sharpest analysis of the state, and a rebuttal of reformist and anarchist illusions.
It answers the state's role and demystifies its purpose in the hands of the ruling class, and lays out a clear alternative: of socialist revolution, the dictatorship of the proletariat, and a future communist society.
This podcast series is in no way a replacement for studying theory for yourself.
