Lenin's What Is To Be Done (1902) has long been seen as the founding document of 20th century revolutionaries, revealing Lenin's elitist and manipulative attitude towards workers. Lih uses hitherto unavailable contextual information to fundamentally challenge this reading.
Lars T. Lih is the editor of Stalin's Letters to Molotov, the author of Bread and Authority in Russia 1914-1921. He has taught political science at Wellesley College and currently teaches at the McGill School of Music in Montral.
