- Synopsis
- Defending the materialist foundations of scientific socialism, Leon Trotsky responds to those in the workers movement in the late 1930s bending to the rising pressures of bourgeois public opinion during Washington’s buildup to enter the spreading imperialist war in Europe. He explains why working people must oppose assaults by the capitalist powers on the degenerated Soviet workers state. And why only a party that fights to bring growing numbers of workers into its ranks and leadership can chart a revolutionary course. Leon Trotsky was a central leader of the 1917 October revolution. Forced into exile by Joseph Stalin in 1929, he was murdered by an agent of Stalin in 1940. In Defense of Marxism is a companion volume to The Struggle for a Proletarian Party by U.S. communist leader James P. Cannon.
