Leon Trotsky was a prominent revolutionary and Marxist theorist who played a key role in the Russian Revolution of 1917. He was a close ally of Vladimir Lenin and played a crucial role in the Bolshevik seizure of power in Russia. After the revolution, Trotsky served as the People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs and as the founder and commander of the Red Army. However, his political differences with Joseph Stalin led to his expulsion from the Communist Party in 1927 and ultimately his exile from the Soviet Union. During his years in exile, Trotsky continued to write and speak out against Stalin's authoritarian rule. Many of his works, such as "The Revolution Betrayed" and "The Permanent Revolution," continue to be influential in Marxist and socialist thought to this day. Trotsky was assassinated in 1940 by a Stalinist agent while living in exile in Mexico, but his ideas and legacy continue to be debated and studied by historians, political theorists, and activists around the world.
