Opis

Millenarian Bolshevism had its origins in a debate between positivist and idealist Marxists at the turn of the 20^th Century. This book, originally published in 1987, charts the development of Millenarian Bolshevism by studying the careers of Bogdanov and Lunacharsky and analyzing their relations with Lenin, Gorky and other left Bolsheviks.
