ABSTRACT
With the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, Marxism and Leninism, as a significant political doctrine, became defunct. Politically, a world had disappeared, at least in Europe.
But in Marxism, this goal is put off until after the revolution. According to traditional Marxists, we must first conquer the power of the state, and to do this, we need a centralized, elite party that can lead the masses and can establish the dictatorship of the proletariat. This line of argument was rejected by the anarchists, who held that the class system is kept in place by such methods; if the revolutionary movement uses these methods, it has been defeated before the battle has even started.
