"Claiming that the root of the defeat in Germany was the lack of 'Bolshevik
discipline' in the KPD, Zinoviev, with the support of Stalin and Bukharin,
launched a campaign to 'bolshevize' the communist parties."
 
Ah, but where is the recognition by Post that this path began in 1920, not 1923,
and had the full support (in 1920) of Lenin and Trotsky?
 
Also, I'm not impressed by assertions about what Trotsky had "correctly argued".
 
Why, Dave Z, do you find this review to be notable?
 
In solidarity, Jerry
