Hint
Answer
It advocates for a revolutionary vanguard party and the establishment of a dictatorship of the proletariat as a precursor to socialism, drawing from Lenin's interpretations of Marxist theories and his contributions such as the analysis of imperialism and principles of party organization, tailored for the socio-political context of the early 20th century Russian Empire.
Leninism
It's the governance and policies of Stalin from 1927 to 1953, characterized by rapid industrialization, collectivization of agriculture, a cult of personality, and the subordination of foreign communist parties to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. It's often used pejoratively to describe Marxism–Leninism and has various interpretations within political discourse.
Stalinism
It's an anti-revisionist Marxist-Leninist variant that emerged after a split between China and Albania in 1978. It staunchly defends Stalin's legacy and criticizes other communist groups as revisionist, asserting Albania's adherence to Marxism–Leninism. Despite Albania's fall, pro-Albanian parties continue to gather under international conferences and publications.
Hoxhaism
Hint
Answer
It's a political ideology emphasizing permanent revolution and proletarian internationalism, contrasting with Stalinism's focus on socialism in one country and advocating for a true dictatorship of the proletariat based on democratic principles. This ideology gained prominence in the 1960s and has influenced political movements globally, with distinct theoretical justifications for criticizing the post-Lenin Soviet Union and advocating for its overthrow.
Trotskyism
It's a theory of communist revolution and guerrilla warfare associated with Ernesto "Che" Guevara, who developed the foco theory inspired by Marxism–Leninism and his experiences in the Cuban Revolution, believing that a small guerrilla vanguard could spark a general uprising when "objective conditions" for revolution existed in a country. Guevara outlined his ideas in his book Guerrilla Warfare, advocating for peaceful means within representative democracy until they were exhausted, after which guerrilla warfare could be considered.
