A highly acdemic and focussed analysis of the first 15 months of the Communist International, and how those critical months following the successful overturning of Imperial control influenced the subsequent growth and development of the Soviet Union. The leading lights of Russian communism in 1919 were genuinely anticipating a worldwide revolution sparked off simply by the powers of propaganda and example; the gradual understanding that the Western world certainly wasn't ready to cast off its chains had a significant impact on the development and structure of the embryonic communist society.
