Part 3: Was The Soviet Union "Socialist'? on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/OneDime
Part 2 on the Marxist Project's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNalGyK3DaK37GTLIHSwmyA/featured
In this podcast I am joined by YouTuber, friend, and grad student The Marxist Project, who makes excellent videos on Marxist theory and Soviet history. In this in-depth podcast, we put into question various competing narratives that aim to rationalize the tragedy of the Soviet Union. We talk about some of the many problems in the Soviet Union and various historical narratives about what went wrong and what lead to it's demise.
For this podcast, we try to avoid the hurdles of one dimensional narratives from various ideological tendencies (Marxism-Leninism, Trotskyism, Maoism, Left Communism, Orthodox Marxism, Anarchism, Liberalism, conservatism, etc..) and try to give a balanced analysis of the USSR and the problems it faced.
