Have a little read: ... "They're the same", my father once exclaimed. For if we believe the dominant 'traditional' intentionalist argument, put forward by cold- war era historians, then there indeed exists a direct link between Stalinism and Leninism, and that the socio- economic and political base provided by Lenin resulted in the excesses of Stalinism. Unlike Stalin's personal soviet viewpoint, which advocates that he was the Lenin of the day shedding a positive light on his own policies, which he said were the rightful extensions and correct fulfilments of Lenin's basic principles, the totalitarian argument shows us that the Stalinist experiment became "a nation's tragedy"1. While of course, Trotskyites, the first line of opposition to this case, believe that Stalinism broke with Leninism. They strongly favour the fact that Stalin perverted the basically democratic progressive nature of Leninism into a personal dictatorship. It is was a "Thermidorian negation...[and] betrayal"2 of the basic Bolshevik beliefs.
