V I Lenin

Kevin Corr: In from the cold – Tamás Krausz’s Lenin
International Socialism Journal nr. 147, jul 15 – side 139
Note: A review of Tamás Krausz, Reconstructing Lenin: An Intellectual Biography (Monthly Review Press, 2015), £25
Reconstructing Lenin is a thoughtful and compelling study of Lenin. Tamás Krausz reveals Lenin as an activist revolutionary whose thoughts were shaped by immediate political events but who also at the same time never strayed far from a coherent theoretical framework. As a work of scholarship it deserves to be up there with Lars Lih’s Lenin Rediscovered.
 

James O’Toole: Lenin’s What is to be Done? – a defence
Irish Marxist Review (Irland) nr. 13, jun 15 – side 46
Note: Lenin’s 1901 pamphlet What is to be Done? is still controversial. The book is used to provide illustration, by conservatives and liberals alike, for the argument that Lenin was an ‘elitist’.
 

Gareth Jenkins + Kevin Corr: The case of the disappearing Lenin
International Socialism Journal nr. 144, okt 14 – side 37
Note: What, if anything, do modern day socialists have to learn from Lenin? Capitalism is mired in its deepest and longest crisis since the 1930s, producing bitter discontent that in places overflows into mass resistance and even revolutions. With Stalinism all but dead and traditional reformist parties offering little beyond doing austerity in a fairer manner, revolution from below would seem to be an idea whose time has at long last returned.
 

Anders Bæk Simonsen: Lenin: En revolutionær realpolitiker
Socialistisk Arbejderavis nr. 324, nov 12 – side 6
Note: Ved at læse hvad Lenin skriver og læse om den tid han og andre socialister navigerer i, får man en fornemmelse af en meget dedikeret politisk aktivist, der kommer med tidssvarende bud på udvikling af den socialistiske bevægelse.
 

John Molyneux: In defence of Leninism
Irish Marxist Review (Irland) nr. 3, sep 12 – side 27
Note: The contemporary defence of Leninism involves two tasks: first, the defence of the political record of the historical Lenin; second the demonstration of the continuing relevance and applicability of Lenin’s key political ideas today. This article will mainly focus on the second task but I will begin with a few remarks about the first.
 

Jonathan Maunder: Book review: Lenin: A Study on the Unity of His Thought
Socialist Review nr. 338, jul 09 – side 27
Note: Georg Lukács, Verso; £6.99
This newly republished short book is essential in understanding Lenin's contribution to Marxism. When Georg Lukács wrote it in 1923 he had only recently become a Marxist, radicalised by the First World War and the Russian Revolution. He joined the Hungarian Communist Party in 1918 at the age of 33, and up to that point had written books on literary criticism.
 

Paul Le Blanc: Why read Lenin today?
Socialist Worker nr. 2131, dec 08 – side 13
Note: The acclaimed Marxist historian Paul Le Blanc explains why Lenin’s political ideas are vitally important for anyone who wants to understand capitalism and struggle against it.
 

Jørn Andersen: Lenins Hvad må der gøres?
Socialistisk Arbejderavis nr. 283, okt 08 – side 11
Note: Få bøger har været udsat for den skæbne, som Lenins pjece fra 1902 „Hvad må der gøres?“. Borgerlige har i den set Lenins plan for Stalins Gulag. Revolutionære smågrupper har læst den som en konkret vejledning i alle mulige situationer. Men hvad kan vi bruge den til i dag?
 

Dan Mayer: A to Z of Socialism: L is for Lenin
Socialist Review nr. 325, maj 08 – side 17
Note: There have been many revolutionary upheavals in the past century, each one unleashing the huge creative energy of millions of people.
 

Chris Harman: Review: Shedding some light on Lenin
International Socialism Journal nr. 116, okt 07 – side 211
Note: Sebastian Budgen, Stathis Kouvelakis and Slavoj Zizek (eds), Lenin Reloaded: Towards a Politics of Truth (Duke University, 2007), £12.99
 

Mark Thomas: Review: Leninism with reservations
International Socialism Journal nr. 114, apr 07 – side 215
Note: Paul Le Blanc, Marx, Lenin, and the Revolutionary Experience: Studies of Communism and Radicalism in the Age of Globalisation (Routledge, 2006), £18.99

Note: A review of Lars T Lih: "Lenin Rediscovered: What is to be Done? in Context" (Brill, Historical Materialism series, 2006), euro 129
 

Jan Hoby: Derfor Lenin!
Socialistisk Arbejderavis nr. 216, jul 03 – side 9
Note: Den første reaktion på ideen om at ville aktualisere Lenin i det 21.århundrede vil nok være sarkastisk latter.
 

Tim Robinson: 75 år etter hans død: hva sto Lenin for?
Internasjonal Sosialisme 2 (norsk) nr. 3, mar 99 
 

Inge-Lise Bjørn: Marxismens klassikere: Georg Lukacs: "Lenin": Det revolutionære partis opgaver

Note: Problemet med hvordan arbejderklassen opnår det bevidsthedsniveau, som er nødvendigt for at gennemføre en revolution, bliver behandlet i den ungarske socialists Georg Lukacs’ bog.
 

Martin B. Johansen: V. I. Lenin: “Staten og revolutionen”: Hvad er marxisme? Staten og revolutionen
Socialistisk Revy nr. 7, sep 98 – side 30
Note: Når socialister argumenterer for, at en samfundsomvæltning ikke kan ske via parlamentet, men kræver en revolution, så anklages de ofte for at være udemokratiske.
 

Adrian Budd: A new life for Lenin
(P Le Blanc: "Lenin and the Revolutionary Party")
International Socialism Journal nr. 70, mar 96 – side 143
Note: On Lenin's struggle to build a revolutionary party
 

Tom Christiansen: Lenins “Staten og revolutionen”: Socialisme igennem folketinget?
Socialistisk Arbejderavis nr. 10, jun 85 – side 6
Note: Storstrejken er slut for denne gang. Og Schlüter sidder stadig på sin post. Derfor vil mange stille spørgsmålet: »Hvordan kommer vi så af med ham?« De fleste vil højst sandsynligt komme til konklusionen: Han må stemmes ud ved næste valg.
