The article discusses the history of communism, tracing its origins from the horror of early capitalism to the hope for a more just future outlined by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. It highlights the discrepancy between the theory of communism and the actual regimes that emerged in the 20th century, which resorted to dictatorship and mass murder. The text critiques Sean McMeekin's book, "To Overthrow the World," for its narrow focus on leadership and lack of depth in discussing the impact of communism on cultural life, gender relations, and nationalism. The article emphasizes the need for a comprehensive understanding of communism's complex history and its appeal to people worldwide. [Extracted from the article] |
