Last decade of 20th century had been witness to crumbling down of decaying Stalinist regimes, in USSR and countries of Eastern Europe- i.e. Germany, Hungary, Poland, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia and so on. The historic mission of Capitalism for a world conquest, cut halfway by the mighty tide of October Socialist Revolution of 1917, thus completed itself, towards the end of 20th century.
Amazingly, Leon Trotsky, the co-mentor with Lenin, of the Russian Revolution and the Third International (Comintern), had long ago predicted this end of the destiny of Stalinism. In no ambiguous terms Trotsky claimed that Soviet Russia under Stalin, would either degenerate or fall. Rather, he said, it would first degenerate and then fall. Soviet Russia had completely degenerated into a bureaucratic state during lifetime of Stalin himself, continued to decay further after him and ultimately fell to its destiny as predicted by Trotsky. Its satellite formations in Europe, which had copied its model, shared the same fate with it. China, the Asian model of Stalinism, has joined the voyage of world capitalism, with its bureaucratic apparatus and red flag.
