Originally published in 1936, the book examines the state of the Soviet Union and its political and economic system under the leadership of Joseph Stalin.Trotsky argues that the Soviet Union had deviated from its original revolutionary goals and had become a bureaucratic dictatorship. He critiques Stalin's policies, such as the forced collectivization of agriculture and the purges of political opponents, as harmful to the working class and the socialist project.The book also explores the potential future of the Soviet Union, arguing that it could either continue down the path of bureaucratic dictatorship or experience a new revolution led by the working class.The Revolution Betrayed is considered a classic work of Marxist theory and a significant contribution to the study of Soviet politics and history. It remains relevant today for its analysis of the dangers of authoritarianism and the importance of democratic socialism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
