The State and Revolution is a political treatise written by Vladimir Lenin, the founder and leader of the Russian Communist Party. First published in 1917, the book outlines Lenin's ideas on the nature of the state and the role of the proletariat in the revolution.Lenin argues that the state is a tool of oppression used by the ruling class to maintain their power and protect their interests. He contends that the state must be destroyed and replaced by a new form of government, a proletarian dictatorship that represents the interests of the working class.The book also explores the relationship between the state and the socialist revolution, arguing that the revolution must be led by the proletariat and that the state must be used to suppress counter-revolutionary forces.Overall, The State and Revolution is a seminal work of Marxist theory that has had a profound impact on political thought and revolutionary movements around the world.No, democracy is n o t identical with the subordination of the minority to the majority. Democracy is a state which recogizes the subordination of the minority to the majority, i.e., an organization for the systematic use of violence by one class against the other, by one section of the population against another.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
