Karl Radek Quotes

A collection of quotes by Karl Radek.

Karl Radek (1885-1939) was a prominent Russian Marxist and political activist. He played a significant role in the early years of the Russian Revolution as a leading member of the Bolshevik Party and a close associate of Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky. Radek served as a key propagandist, editor, and organizer within the party. However, his influence and position within the Soviet government declined in the 1920s due to political disagreements and allegations of conspiracy against Stalin. He was later expelled from the Communist Party, imprisoned, and ultimately executed during the Great Purge in 1939.
