Revolution In Danger

This is a collection of Serge's writings from the time of the Russian revolution - long before he turned against Stalinism and was expelled from the Communist party. On almost every page you feel the discomfort of a former (libertarian) anarchist trying to come to terms with the “necessity” of terror and violence in the service of a revolution he believed would begin the final step towards the eradication of the state. His dream failed completely and his justifications are the universal ones of total civil war, but he is an interesting and unusual critical witness to a revolution he committed himself completely to.
