War Communism, implemented during the Russian Civil War (1918-1921), involved the nationalization of industry, forced requisitioning of agricultural produce, and centralized control of the economy to support the Red Army. In contrast, Lenin's New Economic Policy (NEP) introduced in 1921 relaxed state control, allowing for limited private enterprise and small-scale farming, while the state retained control over major industries. The NEP aimed to revive the economy by incentivizing production and trade, addressing the severe economic crisis that followed War Communism. Essentially, War Communism was characterized by strict state control, while the NEP represented a pragmatic retreat towards capitalism to foster economic recovery.

Lenin's view of communism differed from Marx's in that Lenin believed in the necessity of a vanguard party to lead the revolution and guide the working class, as he thought that the proletariat needed political leadership to achieve and maintain power. While Marx envisioned a spontaneous uprising of the working class to establish a classless society, Lenin emphasized the role of a disciplined party to enact this change, particularly in a less industrialized country like Russia. Additionally, Lenin advocated for a more centralized approach to governance and economic management, diverging from Marx's broader and more theoretical framework.
