Description
This is the first comprehensive examination of Leon Trotsky's view on revolutionary organisational principles and the dynamic interplay of democratic initiative and principled centralism.
Mostly in his own words, these writings are grounded in Trotsky's experience in Russia's revolutionary movement, as a leader of the International Left Opposition and Fourth International.
Leon Trotsky And The Organisational Principles Of The Revolutionary Party by Paul Le Blanc offers valuable insights into the strategies and philosophies that shaped Trotsky's approach to revolution and political organisation.

Leon Trotsky And The Organisational Principles Of The Revolutionary Party by Paul Le Blanc is praised for effectively challenging the notion of continuity between the early Russian Revolution and Stalinism. Reviewers appreciate its detailed analysis and how it provides a compelling argument against those who see little difference between Trotsky's revolutionary ideas and the later Soviet regime.
