Description

How did it happen, how could it have been that the party of revolu- tion which was to lead toward the liberation of man, toward a classless society, gradually sank into the mire of a totalitarian regime? Was Leninism responsible for Stalinism? Did Stalin continue what Lenin left off? It was to answer such questions that Alfred Rosmer set out to write Moscou Sous Lenine. Convinced that the past determines the present, that "in order to move forward one must find one's road of yesterday," Rosmer went back to the years 1920-1924, and retraced the events of the immediate post-revolutionary period of which he was one of the close witnesses.
