Synopsis "León Trotsky - Textos Esenciales (in Spanish)"

Como el gran escritor que era, León Trotsky dejó (además de su importante obra como teórico marxista) un legado escrito que constituye aún en nuestro tiempo parte de la mejor documentación sobre los hechos históricos que le tocaron vivir. En nuestra selección combinamos el relato que él hace -como protagonista directo- de sus comienzos como revolucionario, los párrafos más salientes de sus memorias sobre la Revolución Rusa y, también, el relato estremecedor de su caída del poder tras la muerte de Lenin, el ascenso imposible de detener de Stalin y la odisea de su exilio como un desterrado a quien ningún país quería tener dentro de sus fronteras. Textos que muestran claramente -como introducción para el lector interesado en conocer los hechos y las circunstancias de primera mano- el complejo rompecabezas de lo que fue la Revolución de Octubre, por una parte, y el pensamiento vivo de uno de los hombres más importantes para su triunfo y consolidación en el poder.'

Lev Davidovich Bronstein, better known as Leon Trotsky, was a politician and revolutionary of Russian origin

Although he initially sympathized with the Mensheviks[4] and had ideological and personal disputes with the Bolshevik leader, Vladimir Lenin, Trotsky was one of the key organizers of the October Revolution, which allowed the Bolsheviks to take power in November 1917 in Russia. During the subsequent civil war, he served as the commissioner of military affairs

He negotiated Russia's withdrawal from World War I through the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. He was in charge of creating the Red Army which would definitively consolidate the revolutionary achievements by defeating poor support from foreign armies and the White armies during the Russian civil war; he supported the Red Terror and was awarded the Order of the Red Banner

Subsequently, he politically and ideologically confronted Joseph Stalin, leading the left opposition, which caused him exile and later assassination. After his exile from the Soviet Union, he was the leader of an international left-wing revolutionary movement identified with the name of Trotskyism and characterized by the idea of the "permanent revolution". In 1938, he founded the Fourth International

He was assassinated in Mexico by Ramón Mercader, a Spanish agent of the Soviet NKVD, by order of Stalin.
