RE:The failure of communism - wikipedia.org
by Prem Mohan on Sep 01, 2007 07:32 PM

1. Lenin could overthrow the Czars because the Russian state had been weakened by the Great War.

2. Mao overthrew the Nationalist Government in China which has been weakened by the second world war and the struggle against the japanese.



3. In 150 years since Mao, we have no evidence that Communism can succeed. On the other hand, we have many examples of its failure.



4. Do Prakash karat and Sitaram Yechury really believe that they can succeed where Mao and Stalin failed?
