The Practice and Theory of Bolshevism

The Practice and Theory of Bolshevism, is Bertrand Russell's critique of the Communist system he witnessed in the Soviet Union. The Bolsheviks, however, pursued their goals with an iron fist rather than with a free and idealistic hope that nurtured the individual. Russell was also staunchly opposed to the way that Bolshevism saw itself as a religion, with practices and beliefs that could brook no doubt.
