The practice and theory of Bolshevism

Bertrand Russell's "The Practice and Theory of Bolshevism" offers a critical analysis of the Bolshevik regime in Russia.

Russell, while initially sympathetic to some aspects of communism, expresses concerns about the regime's brutality and authoritarianism.

He contrasts the ideals of communism with its harsh realities.

The book provides valuable insights into the early years of the Soviet Union and the complexities of revolutionary movements.

It remains a significant contribution to the historical and philosophical understanding of communism.
