Fuelled by the outbreak of the First World War and incensed by the surrender of most socialist parties to the demands of national bourgeoisies, Lenin embarked on a quest to comprehend the underlying causes of the crisis plaguing the global movement. The outcome was Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism, which subsequently became a seminal text for the international communist movement. However, Lenin also aimed to transcend the Eurocentrism prevalent within the socialist movement, which often displayed a condescending attitude towards or outright rejection of struggles for self-determination, particularly among colonized peoples. This comprehensive volume, featuring an introduction by the esteemed abolitionist and anti-imperialist theorist Ruth Wilson Gilmore, brings together the texts on imperialism and those on the national question, offering a glimpse into Lenin's expansive global vision of revolution.
