A rare émigré critique of Karl Marx’s views on Russia and nationalism, reprinted from the journal Vozrozhdenie, No. 201, 1968 and published by the anti-communist Posev press. Historian Nikolai Ulyanov (1905–1985) exposes Marx’s often-overlooked writings that reveal his utilitarian support for national self-determination, disdain for Slavic peoples, and strategic interest in Russia’s collapse to hasten European revolution. Citing figures like Viktor Chernov, Ulyanov portrays Marx not as a friend to Russian revolutionaries but as a German nationalist concerned more with destroying tsarism than liberating the Russian people. A sharp, compact work from one of the most incisive thinkers of the Russian diaspora.
