Detailed Solution

The philosophical and intellectual leader of the Russian Revolution can be regarded as Karl Marx. Even though he had passed away a long time before the revolution, Friedrich Engels and his theories were instrumental in igniting the political forces that led to the collapse of the capitalist and autocratic government in 1917. Proletarian revolutions, which are connected to the idea of a global revolution, are something Marxists believe can and will probably occur in all capitalist nations. Large-scale material poverty and a lack of contemporary technology were the main hindrances to Russian economic modernisation; these were factors that orthodox Marxism judged unfavourable to the communist revolution. Marxism-Leninism, an ideology of a centrally planned economy and a vanguardist one-party state to realise the proletariat's dictatorship, served as the doctrine of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU).
