The story of communism is one of the greatest tragedies in modern history, growing out of horror at capitalism's human toll and the hope for a just future.
Communist regimes coming to power violated Marxist theory by resorting to dictatorship and terror, leading to mass murder instead of achieving the proletariat's initial hopes.
Despite initial hopes for workers' self-emancipation, communism resulted in violent repression and a betrayal of its foundational ideals, particularly in agrarian societies.
The fragmented pursuits of socialist movements worldwide stemmed from a rich historical context, marked by chaotic debates and differing visions for achieving egalitarian objectives.
