The Legacy of Russia and the Soviet Union - Authoritarian and Repressive Traditions that Refuse to

The legacy of Russia and the Soviet Union - a dictatorship and a repressive tradition of refusing to die there extended such anecdote of Soviet politics: a ghost of Nicholas II visited Brezhnev to inquire of his mother Russia I did, but I have been told that since his rule, vodka is not 15 years old, only 20%. Shocked, the dead tour cried: "Did I lose my reason for a 5% difference?" Of course, this is just a humorous exaggeration, a political satire.

"The history of the Soviet Union" reflects the era of change in Russia and the world. The words "Su Russia" and "Soviet" are synonyms in everyday vocabulary, but when referring to the foundation of the Soviet Union, "Soviet Russia" refers to the year before the founding, after the revolution in October 1917 . The Soviet Union in 1922. The original ideology of this country is mainly based on works of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. In essence Marx's theory believes that economic and political systems have undergone evolution inevitable evolution Before workers' paradise achieves international cooperation and peace, the current capitalism The system will be replaced by a socialist state. Marx forming the system called it "pure communism".

Sometimes it is abbreviated diamat, but mainly in Russia and the Soviet Union, science and nature philosophy based on studies of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Inspired by the tradition of dialectic and materialistic philosophy, it accepts the new qualities that emerge in the evolution of the natural world and the new stages of evolution. As ZA Jordan pointed out, "Engas continues to use metaphysical insights, that higher levels of presence emerge from lower levels and arise from lower levels.Rules that can not be simplified , And the evolution of this process is governed by development law which reflects the basic attributes of the substance in the whole movement.

During the existence of the Soviet Union, the nature of the Russian state was questioned on the left. These Stalinist traditions and some orthodox Trotskists believe that Russia is not driven by a competitive engine in the capitalistic world market. Currently, other people, including many people at Counterfire, believe that Russia is indeed tied to the world market through arms race, its diplomacy, in particular its dependent status in the Eastern European Empire, is imperialism. However, Russian exceptional arguments still have a strong basis. Since Russia often opposes Western imperialism (although it is not always), essentially it differs in nature from Western imperialism. The argument that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" is obviously wrong.
