How did the Bolsheviks see themselves? What grand narrative gave
meaning to their revolutionary aspirations? The leading Western
expert on Bolshevism, Lars T. Lih, answers these questions in the
first-ever study of the Bolshevik outlook from Lenin to
perestroika. Sharply focused case studies allow individual leaders
– Lenin, Stalin, Bukharin, Trotsky, Zinoviev – to come alive
and speak in their own voices, with surprising results that
challenge conventional narratives left and right. What Was
Bolshevism? uses novels, plays, literary criticism, photographs,
statues, poetry, history textbooks, songs, and film to paint an
indispensable self-portrait of Soviet civilization.
