Descrição: Like 1789, when the French Revolution broke out, 1917 is a year remembered as one of the great fault lines in modern history. The United States entered the First World War in April, a step that paved the way to US leadership of the western world in the second half of the 20th century. In Russia, the Tsarist regime collapsed in March and Vladimir Lenin's Bolsheviks seized power in November, building a totalitarian communist system that at its peak ruled over one-third of the human race. However, knowledge of the extraordinarily violent upheavals that Russian society underwent in the revolutionary and communist periods surely contributes to a deeper understanding of today's Russia and to more informed judgments of its leaders' behaviour. 'If we are to understand the combination of anxiety and ambition that motivates much Russian foreign policy, we need to know its history,' Smith observes.
