Lev Trotsky
Lev Trotsky was a prominent Marxist revolutionary and theorist, known for his role in the Russian Revolution of 1917 and for being a key figure in the early Soviet government. Born in 1879, Trotsky was instrumental in the founding of the Red Army and held several important government positions, including that of Foreign Minister. However, he fell out of favor with Joseph Stalin and was eventually exiled, living in various countries before being assassinated in Mexico in 1940. Trotsky's ideas on permanent revolution and his critique of Stalinism continue to influence leftist thought.
