Meet the author
Vladimir Lenin was a principal leader of the Russian Revolution and the first head of Soviet Russia, whose political theories and actions reshaped the entire 20th-century world order. As a revolutionary Marxist, he dedicated his life to studying and overthrowing the global capitalist system, viewing imperialism as its final, parasitic stage. This book, written in exile during World War I, represents the culmination of his economic analysis, arguing that the inherent conflicts of imperialist powers would inevitably lead to war and proletarian revolution.
