Some say that Leninism as handed down from the Communist International has little to do with Lenin, whom I don't believe would arbitrarily remove 2/3 of a national party leadership with no membership discussion - beyond denouncing the people chosen for expulsion. Some no doubt disagree with that characterization. So discussions on Lenin are better anchored IMHO in Lenin's writings. Maybe we can discuss why Marxist-Leninist organizations fracture endlessly, end up with a single leader or leadership clique, and sometimes turn into a cult where the leaders sells $20M of Leninist-party real estate and moves the proceeds into their account. One question: What is "crisis of leadership theory?" thanks, Mark -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
