Communism

it is in the Ural Mountains, the mountains that separate Asia and Europe from each other. And the Ural mountains are in Russia

community in Spanish is 'comunidad' (cawmooneeTHAD) 'TH as in 'then')

No, that was one of the concepts that he advocated so strongly that it led to the split in the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party into the Mensheviks and Bolsheviks. According to Marxist thought, the proletarian revolution would come about when millions of workers united and seized control of the means of production. Lenin felt that revolution should be by a small group of professional revolutionaries. Lenin wanted the revolutionary group kept to a minimum so that counter revolutionaries would not be able to infiltrate the organization to undermine its revolutionary activities.

Lenin and the Bolsheviks began their rise to power in earnest when Lenin returned to Russia from exile in Switzerland in April 1917 after the February 1917 Revolution which toppled the Tsar. From then on, Lenin and the Bolsheviks worked against the new Provisional Government by promising an end to World War 1, redistribution of land to peasants and an end to shortages of food and manufactured goods. They spread their revolutionary ideas among the soldiers, workers and peasants until they were able to overthrow the Provisional Government in the October Revolution of 1917 and take over full political governmental power in Russia.

The 'spectre of Bolshevism' was an important factor, along with the desire for expansion and conquest. However, it was not necessarily the main reason as there were plenty of other countries that were anti-Communist but had no wish to join the Axis.

How could the Domino Theory lead fear of Communism in Australia in the 1960's?

It was Lenin's intention to save the Russian Socialist economy by introducing some elements of Capitalism. For example, He allowed for members of the peasantry to sell the surplus of their agricultural goods after paying a hefty state tax. The ability to profit off of one's own good gave the peasantry more of an incentive to produce as much as they could. With this new motivation, production of grain went up to level even higher than from before the revolution. Normally this would be considered success. However, because the Soviets had not yet begun to develop their industry, The agricultural market began to rise much faster than that of the industrial. The proletariat, in their attempt to catch up with the agricultural market attempted to sell their factory goods at higher prices, resulting in a dramatic economic imbalance. The peasants could not afford to buy industrial goods because the price of food had dropped so much. Industrial goods had increased 290% while agricultural prices dropped 11%. SHS POUR ARS LOU

The professed philosophies of the two countries wasn't strictly practiced during WWII however one area of distinction was

the Nazis pandered to the industrialists and subjugated (enslaved) the workers

while

the Soviets eliminated the capitalistic industrialists and gave the power to the workers (who they then kind-of worked to death)

There were a number of leaders who planned the October Revolution, but Vladimir Lenin is credited with being the leader.

There was no leader in the February Revolution, since that broke out spontaneously and without any organization or leadership. Tsar Nicholas was convinced by his advisors that he had to abdicate the throne because he no longer had control of the military forces.

The Bolsheviks, who were students of Marx, believed that the Russian power structure should be overthrown and power should be given to the architects of the revolution (i.e. themselves). The other half of the revolutionary faction, the Mensheviks favored interaction from the workers and farmers. After Russia's humiliation in World War I, food and work shortages, and the promise of the redistribution of land, the Bolsheviks were able to gain the support of the people.

Ha do you belive every thing the stupid American government tells you patheltic it was to show that America was never a top dog at any thing well maybe sucking but any way the Americans belevied that they solely won WW2 but after that they finally saw the light so lesson taught don't belvie Americans for Christ sake

The Russian socialist revolutionaries under Lenin were known as Bolsheviks until March 1918 when they adopted the name Communists at their Seventh Party Congress.

Note: The 'Bolsheviks' as a faction of the Russian Social Democratic Party are not to be confused with another socialist party named 'Socialist Revolutionaries.' This question specifically uses the term "socialist revolutionaries," but it obviously does not mean the political party that was then known as the "Socialist Revolutionaries," because the "Socialist Revolutionaries" were abolished by the Communists.

Without wishing to go too deeply in this question I would say that any political system can work anywhere. What is important is that it has the benefit & consent of the majority of people at its heart. Any political system which does not is oppression.

Bolshevik ("Большевик", derived from Russian word for "majority") is the name given to the faction of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party (RSDLP) led by Vladimir Lenin, formed at the Second Party Congress in 1903. The other faction was known as the Mensheviks, derived from "minority". Shortly after the Bolsheviks seized power during the Russian Revolution of 1917, they changed their name to the All-Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks), and then at the 1936 Party Congress to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. The word "Bolshevik" is sometimes used as a synonym of Communist. It was often used by right-wingers outside the Soviet Union as a derogatory term for left-wingers, not all of whom were necessarily Communists. The Bolshevik political platform has often been referred to as Bolshevism.

Kennedy was NOT new to foreign aggression. He was a decorated war veteran of WW2 (Commander of Patrol Torpedo Boat #109/PT-109) and had been "briefed" by the out-going President Eisenhower, himself a veteran of WW2.

Because they have been brainwashed into thinking communism is bad and entails a dictatorship. They have been led to believe that Stalin=communism, when in fact Lenin wanted Stalin to be removed from his position (Lenins Testament) and wanted Trotsky to succeed him.

He was for it.

Lenin led the Bolshevik Party which was installed into power following the October Revolution. Before the Revolution he became one of Europe's most respected Marxist theoriticians and wrote many important works. After the Revolution political prisoners were freed and soon the Constituent Assembly was convened after the Mensheviks continuously put it off. Within several months the "Whites" (Tsarists) started executing revolutionaries and instigating pogroms against Jews, they were supported by the Mensheviks and Right Social Revolutionaries, (during this time the Mensheviks and Right SRs were declared to be illegal parties) Civil War ensued and over a dozen other countries invaded Russia hoping to overthrow Lenin's government. The Bolsheviks responded with the Red Terror and Leon Trotsky built the Red Army. After the Bolsheviks won the war, they proceeded to try to build Russia economically, the New Economic Policy was a part of this. Over time the state became more bureaucratic due primarily to Russia's backwardness and isolation. Lenin fought with Trotsky against this trend and against Stalin in his rise to power but died in January 1924.

The growth of McCarthyism and the advent of a new Red Scare in the 1950s gave the Reds' owners concerns that the club's traditional nickname would be seen as an association with the dreaded Red Menace. The name of the team was officially changed to the Cincinnati Redlegs and the new 1956 uniforms wiped out the REDS lettering from inside the C-REDS logo, leaving a plain wishbone C in red.

The United States has never had a totalitarian communist dictator.

Lenin went from hiding out in Finland to leading Russia. He came to power after realizing the government was not set up the way he wished it would be. He used propaganda to help him rise in power.

Yes, the war was extremely unpopular. The morale of Russia's military was broken, having lost all confidence in their leadership. Supplies were not being delivered due to Russia's inadequate transportation system. Lenin was fortunate that he was given the opportunity to simply end the war.

The irrational fear of communism caused many in the United States to be suspicious of immigrants. Their paranoia was helped by officials, such as the United States Attorney General Michael Palmer, who said a communist revolution would come to America unless foreign born agitators were removed from the country. A bombing on Wall Street by anarchists was blamed on immigrants, prompting denial of the basic rights of many. Thousands of immigrants were deported based on a suspicion they might be communists.
