About this title

Synopsis

Marxism has impacted the lives of billions. Only among the great world religions can we find other forces which had the capacity to change the world and lives of individuals to this degree. Despite its debilitation after the fall of the Soviet Union and the economic liberalization of China, its impact and influence is far from over. As more and more people are regaining a new found interest in the movement, and with the ever-radicalizing sociopolitical environment its more important than ever to understand the reason why people are leaning more and more to extreme fringes of the political spectrum. Individually, so that one might be wary of one own's biases and tendencies towards the movement, and collectively, so that we might discern the spirit of the times with some amount of wisdom.

Thus this short book is presented firstly as an introductory essay into the history of Marxism, with specific interest in its Russian manifestation, and secondly, as formal academic study into the philosophical, psychological and social, forces that influenced the many peoples of the Russian Empire into embracing the ideology, which in term might influence us now into following in their footsteps.
