Publisher's Synopsis
The Practice and Theory of Bolshevism is a book written by the philosopher and mathematician, Bertrand Russell, in 1921. The book provides a critical analysis of the Bolshevik regime in Russia, its ideology, and its impact on the world. Russell examines the Bolsheviks' political philosophy, their economic policies, and their attitude towards religion, education, and culture. He argues that Bolshevism is a form of dictatorship that suppresses individual freedom and creativity, and that it is based on a flawed understanding of human nature and social relations. Russell also discusses the role of violence in the Bolshevik revolution, the nature of Soviet communism, and the prospects for a socialist society. The book is a thought-provoking critique of Bolshevism that remains relevant to contemporary debates about socialism and democracy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
