Written in 1936 and published the following year, this brilliant and profound evaluation of Stalinism from the Marxist standpoint prophesied the collapse of the Soviet Union. Trotsky employs facts, figures, and statistics to show how Stalinist policies rejected the enormous productive potential of the nationalized planned economy engendered by the October Revolution.

What happened to the USSR after the revolution? If it started as a democratic and socialist revolution, how and why did it become a beaurocratized undemocratic and politically monolithic nation? Trotsky discusses these questions and examines the underlying trends going on at the time.
