Summary
The theory of Permanent Revolution has been associated with Leon Trotsky for more than a century. The documents in this volume demonstrate that Trotsky was one of several participants in a debate over Permanent Revolution from 1903-1907. This volume reassembles that debate and provides fresh insight into the formative years of Russian Marxism.
