“The first book to be published by the Pioneer Publishers”. One of Trotsky's fundamental theoretical works. He developed the theory in opposition to Stalin's doctrine of “socialism in one country,” arguing that in countries with delayed capitalist development the bourgeois-democratic and socialist stages could become intertwined, with the working class potentially taking power and carrying the revolution beyond national and democratic objectives.
