On the centenary of the Russian Revolution, Tariq Ali paints an illuminating portrait of Lenin

Without Lenin there would have been no socialist revolution in 1917. Of this much we can be certain.

Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, leader of the October 1917 uprising, is one of the most misunderstood leaders of the twentieth century. In his own time, there were many, even among his enemies, who acknowledged the full magnitude of his intellectual and political achievements. But his legacy has been lost in misinterpretation  he is worshipped but rarely read.

On the centenary of the Russian Revolution, Tariq Ali explores the two major influences on Lenins thoughtthe turbulent history of Tsarist Russia and the birth of the international labour movementand explains how Lenin confronted dilemmas that still cast a shadow over the present. Is terrorism ever a viable strategy? Is support for imperial wars ever justified? Can politics be made without a party? Was the seizure of power in 1917 morally justified? Should he have parted company from his wife and lived with his lover?

In The Dilemmas of Lenin, Ali provides an insightful portrait of Lenins deepest preoccupations and underlines the clarity and vigour of his theoretical and political formulations. He concludes with an affecting account of Lenins last two years, when he realized that we knew nothing and insisted that the revolution had to be renewed lest it wither and die.
