“The Legacy of Leon Trotsky” - first published in 2015 to commemorate the 75th anniversary of his death - explores the life of one of the greatest revolutionary leaders in the modern era. Trotsky rose from obscurity and persecution as a member of the underground socialist movement in the Tsarist Empire to the height of power in the fledgling Soviet republic, only to be marginalized and once again exiled as the Russian Revolution degenerated under the weight of social, economic and political forces he himself brilliantly analyzed and combated. Given his critical association with the world’s first successful proletarian socialist revolution, the pivotal importance of his contributions and the misappropriation of his name and political heritage, it is instructive to revisit Trotsky’s legacy decades after his death.

O "Legado de Leon Trotsky" reflete muito mais as polícias da URSS do que necessariamente Trotsky e as suas ações. O foco incide em primeira instância em Vladimir Lenine e depois nas polícias internacionais de Josef Stalin.

É uma obra interessante e acessível para quem quer saber um pouco mais sobre o partido comunista da URSS, mas se for desejado algo sobre Leon Trotsky em específico esta não é a obra aconselhável, visto que este fica num papel antagónico.
