It may have been defeated, slandered, quickly turned into its opposite. But before all that happened, the October Revolution occurred - to the disappointment of the propagandists of eternal, "self-evident" capitalism. About a century later, both the capitalist crisis and the monsters it generates, as well as the new democratic and communist experimentation in every corner of the earth, testify that 1917 remains a constant source of inspiration, an inevitable reference for those who think and act within the framework of movements for equality, freedom, and global social justice. That is why the Red Notebook attempted to "reread" the October of 1917 - and that is the reason for the book you are holding in your hands.
