my disillusionment with russia by emma goldman is one of my favorite books. it details the fascade of the bolshevik regime, the totalitarian nature of lenin, and the basic economic colapse of russia. it shows how when lenin and the bolsheviks took power the russian revolution came to a grinding halt, and the persecution began.

for anyone, esspecially leninists.. stalinists... Trotskyists... please read this book.

No one cares what the old bint thinks. She was a totally useless cretin.

Do not piss the Lennie off, or he shall take actions in the manner of thy Saint.

But, seriously, sounds like an interesting read. Is it available at akpress or what?

Not my local. :(

I can't find any Goldman at all there. It's rather disappointing.

As far as I can tell he isn't breaking any rules. :rolleyes:

And it seems to me the other people in this thread happen to care what she thinks.

How exactly is it that "revolution came to a grinding halt" with Lenin and the Bolsheviks? Unless Goldman preferred the bourgeois revolution and Kerensky's provisional government! :lol:

Goes to show which side the anarchists often prefer! Isn't this book available online for free? Or do circle-A-jerkers just prefer to buy dead trees from capitalists? :P

For anyone interested in real polemics on this question, see the ebates between Lenin and Trotsky, with Kautsky and Luxemburg, etc.:
