Marxism–Leninism–Stalinism (MLS), 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][4]
Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism was synthesized into a coherent ideology in 1978 by Enver Hoxha,[5] along with the developments made by people such as Lazar Kaganovich and Nikos Zachariadis.[6] It is based on the theory and practice of Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin.[7]
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.[4]
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.[8][9] Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism would later be augmented by its followers into the present day.[2][4]
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][5][10][4]
Economic self-reliance
Stalinists hold that within the context of the development of socialism, the socialist state must rely on its own economic forces rather than external economies. The theory of socialist economic self-reliance was developed by Enver Hoxha, and was most elaborated in his work Imperialism and the Revolution:[11]
"In no case do the capitalists provide their credits for the construction of socialism. They provide them to destroy socialism. Therefore a genuine socialist country never accepts credits, in any form, from a capitalist, bourgeois or revisionist country."
This theory was developed within the greater context of the struggle against social-imperialism. Thus, a socialist state, no matter how small in territorial size, may build socialism in one country without the interference of modern revisionist or capitalist states.[3][4]
