Attempting to understand the catalogue of horrors that has characterised much of twentiethcentury history, Western scholars generally distinguish between violent revolutions of the 'right' and the 'left'. Fascist regimes are assigned to the evil right, MarxistLeninist regimes to the benign left. But this distinction has left us without a coherent understanding of the revolutionary history of the twentieth century, contends A. James Gregor in this insightful book. He traces the evolution of Marxist theory from the 1920s through the 1990s and argues that the ideology of MarxismLeninism devolved into fascism. Fascist regimes and Communist regimes both antidemocratic ideocracies are far more closely related than has been recognised. Employing wideranging primary source materials in Italian, German, Russian, and Chinese, the book opens with an examination of the first standard Marxist interpretation of Mussolini's fascism in the early 1920s and proceeds through the emergence of fascist phenomena in postCommunist Russia. A clearer understanding of the relation between fascism and communism provides a sharper lens through which to view twentiethcentury history as well as the present and future politics of Russia, Communist China, and other nondemocratic states, Gregor concludes.
