Communist Leaders of the 20th CenturyNovember 17, 2009Communist Leaders of the 20th CenturyVladimir Lenin, Ho Chi Minh and Moa Zedong were all leaders who were visionaries and revolutionaries who changed the world. They used communist ideals and propaganda to engage peasants and the working class to fight for freedom and to preserve their cultural values. Each leader and his followers successfully changed the economic and political structure of their countries as well as influencing the rest of the world for decades to come.
Vladimir Lenin – Russian RevolutionaryPrologueVladimir Lenin was a Bolshevik Leader for the 1917 October Revolution, and the first Head of State for the Soviet Union. His contribution to political science, Leninism, was developed from his interpretations on the Marxist theory. After the revolution, Lenin headed the new Soviet government that formed in Russia. He became the leader of the USSR upon its founding in 1922. Lenin held the highest post in the Soviet government until his death in 1924.
Family Status:Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, later known to the world as Lenin, is one of the best-known political figures of the 20th century. Lenin was born on April of 1870, in Simbirsk, Russia. Even though he was known for leading the revolution for peasants and the working class, his background was by no means lower class. Lenin had a wealthy middle class upbringing. His father attended Kazan University and became a schoolteacher and a pioneer of non-Euclidian geometry. Through diligent work and loyalty, his father advanced to “Actual Councilor of State” (an inspector of schools). His mother was the daughter of a doctor from a wealthy family in northern Germany. She was dedicated to the care and education of her children.
Education & UpbringingVladimir Lenins own thirst for knowledge was a catalyst towards him becoming a professional revolutionary. According to one investigator of his youth, he was “a walking encyclopedia, extremely useful to his comrades and the pride of his teachers.” As Lenin began to progress in school, he suffered two blows which undoubtedly set his path towards becoming a revolutionary leader. Lenin was only a teen when he lost his father to a brain hemorrhage. His fathers death led him to lose faith in religion and allowed him to easily embrace the revolutionary beliefs, which were struggling for the ascendancy in Russia in the 1880s. A few years later, his brother was executed for participating in an assassination attempt against Emperor Alexander III. This also led Lenin to grow more rebellious and read more revolutionary literature while he was attending university. Lenins ability to lead was rooted in his strong political beliefs, developed
Education and#1802; According to a friend, he was also a member of the Petrograd Communist Party and participated in the Petrograd Revolution against the Bolshevik government, which was led by Bolshevik Party president Lenin. However he was never able to fully develop a revolutionary political philosophy, not because he was influenced by Marxism but because he was too weak to understand that Marxist theories were incompatible with communist dogma. According to a great historical document released by the International Workers’ Party, the Russian Revolution took place in a very unusual location. To the Soviet state the revolution took place at the beginning of the Great Depression of the 1930s, when the government wanted to make the state the sole source of income for the workers.
Education ܢ On the other hand, a young revolutionary, who had never been taught Marxist or Leninist literature, made an academic study to become an officer in the Bolshevik government. He was a young student of Lenin’s, and thus could not find a Marxist in his class, even though he had been taught Lenin’s Marxist writings, which he believed had been destroyed by Stalinism.
Education ܦ In January 1905, a local student from Pinsk, a small town outside Moscow who had never attended class, came to school in his class car. He was taken to Lenin’s classroom, where he learned the basic Marxism—an opinion popular among peasant workers in this area, especially in the USSR, but also with some Marxist adherents. It was there that this student learned Marxism for the first time.
Education ܴ A book by Professor V.L. Rovnyev in Moscow of socialist and anarchist thought and history, “The History and Future of the Russian Revolution”, published in 1935, was probably the most influential book on the subject, as Lenin had taught the Russian revolution.
Education and#1844; It has been said that the Bolshevik government failed its own people and this meant that it tried to kill its own people and its own leadership.
Education as A Crisis; A lot of things occurred and I am pleased to show a few of these events that will give hope to many of my contemporaries that they have made a real difference in Russia and in the world.
Education was also the most important factor in the development of revolutionary consciousness between the masses [which the Bolsheviks were opposed.]
Education as a Cultural Revolution; In January 1905, the Russian Revolution was inaugurated.
