This is a narration of Lars Lih’s excellent book Lenin Rediscovered: What Is to Be Done? In Context. Going against conventional wisdom, Lih presents a detailed study that paints Lenin as an optimist inspired by the capacity of the working class and determined to guide them to carry out their historic mission. Furthermore, Lih identifies the German Social Democratic Party as Lenin’s ideal model of a revolutionary party, which he tried to implement to the greatest extent possible in Russia.
The full audiobook was narrated by Cliff Connoly and produced by the team at Cosmonaut Magazine. You can find this, and other audio books, on our Youtube channel, and you can purchase a physical copy of the book itself at Haymarket books.
