Leon Trotsky - Biography
Trotsky is a name associated with the October Revolution, revolutionary communism and influence on world politics. This outstanding revolutionary, politician and theorist of communism left an indelible mark on the history of the 20th century. Let's dive into the biography of Trotsky and consider his amazing life, ideas and contribution to world politics.Leon was born on November 7, 1879 in the village of Yanovka, Kirovograd Oblast, in the Russian Empire (now Ukraine). His real name was Lev Davidovich Bronstein. Since childhood, he showed outstanding abilities and quickly became interested in revolutionary ideas.
In 1898 he joined the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party and began his active political activity. His education and language skills enabled him to become one of the party's leading leaders.
Leon played a key role in the October Revolution of 1917, which led to the overthrow of the provisional government and the establishment of Bolshevik power in Russia. He was chairman of the Military Revolutionary Committee of the Petrograd Soviet, making him one of the main organizers and leaders of the revolution.
Despite joint participation in the October Revolution, later conflicts and disagreements arose between Leon Trotsky and Vladimir Lenin. One of the key disputes was related to the issue of building socialism in Russia. Trotsky supported the idea of a "world revolution" and believed that communism could only be built on a global scale. Lenin argued the need for "socialism in one country."
Conflict with Lenin and other members of the Communist Party led to expulsion from Russia in 1929. He spent the last years of his life in various countries, including Turkey, France and Mexico. In exile, he continued to publish his works and criticize the policies of the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin.
