Revision as of 18:15, 11 March 2023

Marxism–Leninism–Stalinism, commonly known simply as Stalinism, is the most advance stage in the development of Marxism and is the revolutionary science of the proletariat.[1][2][3]

Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism was synthesized into a coherent ideology in 1978 by Enver Hoxha,[4] along with the developments made by people such as Lazar Kaganovich and Nikos Zachariadis.[5] It is based on the theory and practice of Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin.[6]

Currently, it is a relatively new revolutionary ideology, however, by the 2020s, it has begun to rapidly replace the now commonly revisionary "Marxism-Leninism" which many modern revisionists claim to adhere to.

Characteristics

Context of development

Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism is distinct from precursory developments of Marxist thought in that, while for instance, Leninism was the Marxism of the epoch of imperialism and nascent proletarian revolution, Stalinism is the socialism of moribund imperialism and developed socialism.[3] Stalinism developed from the experience of socialist societies such as the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (before 1956) and the People's Socialist Republic of Albania.[7][8] Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism would later be augmented by its followers into the present day.[2]

Opposition to revisionism

Most modern Stalinists are in addition anti-revisionists — drawing inspiration from the political and ideological struggles waged against revisionary trends, such as Khrushchevism, and the figures who led such anti-revisionist struggles, namely Enver Hoxha and others.[1][4][9]
