Paperback. During the twentieth century the problem of post-revolutionary bureaucracy emerged as the most pressing theoretical and political concern confronting Marxism. No one contributed more to the discussion of this question than Leon Trotsky. In Trotsky and the Problem of Soviet Bureaucracy, Thomas M. Twiss traces the development of Trotskys thinking on this issue from the first years after the Bolshevik Revolution through the Moscow Trials of the 1930s. Throughout, he examines how Trotskys perception of events influenced his theoretical understanding of the problem, and how Trotskys theory reciprocally shaped his analysis of political developments. Additionally, Twiss notes both strengths and weaknesses of Trotskys theoretical perspective at each stage in its development. Insightful and groundbreaking, Twisss account of Trotskys theory of post-revolutionary bureaucracy will soon become the definitive work on the subject.
