Still the only full-length study of the achievements and limitations of Lenin's extensive writings on Hegel, Lenin, Hegel, and Western Marxism has become a minor classic. In a full critical account, the book connects his “dialectics” to his renowned writings on imperialism, anti-colonial movements, and the state. It takes up as well the debate over Lenin's writings on Hegel among Western Marxists such as Georg Lukács, Henri Lefebvre, C. L. R. James, Raya Dunayevskaya, Lucio Colletti, and Louis Althusser. With a comprehensive new introduction by the author.

This book was first published by University of Illinois Press, 1995 (978-02-52-06503-3); with new Introduction by the author.
