The ‘Russian Question’ was an absolutely central problem for Marxism
in the twentieth century. Numerous attempts were made to understand the
nature of Soviet society. The present book tries to portray the
development of these theoretical contributions since 1917 in a
coherent, comprehensive appraisal. It aims to present the development
of the Western Marxist critique of the Soviet Union across a rather
long period in history (from 1917 to the present) and in a large region
(Western Europe and North America). Within this demarcation of limits
in time and space, an effort has been made to ensure completeness, by
paying attention to all Marxist analyses which in some way
significantly deviated from or added to the older theories.

Marcel van der Linden (1952) is Research Director of the International
Institute of Social History and Professor in the History of Social
Movements at the University of Amsterdam.
