Comrades : the rise and fall of world communism
Harvey, Robert, 1953-2003
Books
This is a global narrative history of world communism. It asks why communism occurred largely in countries wrenched from feudalism or colonialism, rather than in developed countries groaning under the weight of a parasitic middle class, and it seeks to discover communism's appeal.
