Revolution, Counterrevolution, and Reforms
From: The Great Class War 1914-1918
$2.70
The war that was supposed to be an antidote to revolution actually produces the
revolution. The revolution is smothered in blood in Germany and Hungary, but
succeeds in Russia in spite of domestic opposition and foreign intervention. And
in many Western European countries revolution can be avoided only via the
introduction of major political and social reforms, in other words, by escalating a
democratization process that was supposed to have been halted or even rolled back
by war . . .
