The Bolshevist View of the War
February 21, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

This article presents the Bolshevist view of the World War I as discussed in the book "The Bolsheviki and World Peace," by Leon Trotzky. Trotzky opens with a critique of the endeavors of the Hungarian Socialists to represent the war as one against Russian Czarism. "Laughter turns away wrath," is how he comments on this situation. Events have rendered Trotzky's discussion of "the war against Czarism" more obsolete than this consideration of Austria-Hungary; yet it is of special interest for the light that it throws on his views.
