Ok, lets say "someone" "accidentaly" ressurects Lenin, <.< >.>,
How would he react to the current status of capitalist nations?
(sorry ifs its too big of a question, it was either that or asking where i can buy "Leninade"
I forget where one buys Leninade.
This is a rather huge question though but that would be solved by turning to Lenin's thoughts on Imperialism being the highest stage of Capitalism and trying to guess if he would refer to the the current economic globalization as something new entirely from his idea of Imperialism or simply another form of the same thing. If the later is the case he would probably look to see what the weakest link of the current roster of Capitalist nations. I myself think it is Southeast Asia and as a result think he would too. Perhaps others would have differing views but more or less those do seem to be the weak links of the chain.
In addition he would be rather astounded at how the United States has progressed and grown, he would probably write about the significance of a Revolution there and how it would certainly spread. How Lenin would see the rampant consumerism of the First World is something harder to predict but I think he would perhaps maybe come close to my opinion that the First World nations seem to have actually taken the title and role of Bourgeois themselves while Second and Third have taken Proletariat and so on.
I would also imagine that he would be curious about how Russia somehow became Capitalist after his death and maybe more or less could end the Stalin-Trotsky feud by saying who he would have preferred to lead (which in my opinion was either he lived to continue his ideals or no one lead specifically by thesmelves). Then I suppose he would get to trying to figure out how re-start the Revolution in Russia.
