Book excerpt: Was the regime of Joseph Stalin and his heirs a continuation of the Bolshevik-led workers and peasants government established by the October 1917 Revolution? No! says Bolshevik leader Leon Trotsky in testimony before a 1937 international commission of inquiry into Stalin's Moscow frame-up trials. Reviewing forty years of working-class struggle in which Trotsky was a participant and leader, he discusses the fight to restore V.I. Lenin's revolutionary internationalist course and why the Stalin regime organized the Moscow Trials. He explains working people's stake in the unfolding Spanish Revolution, the fight against fascism in Germany, efforts to build a world revolutionary party, and much more.

Book excerpt: The Dewey Commission, which met in 1937 to investigate the charges made in the Moscow Trials against Leon Trotsky, has been accepted uncritically as a refutation of those charges and a convincing determination that Trotsky was "not guilty." The present book studies the Dewey Commission proceedings and conclusions in the light of documentary evidence now available and concludes that the Commission's conclusions are faulty on many grounds, among them that Trotsky deliberately and repeatedly lied to the Commission.

Book excerpt: "We find the Moscow trials to be frame-ups. We find Leon Trotsky not guilty." These were the findings of a 1937 commission of inquiry headed by U.S. philosopher John Dewey into the charges against communist leader Leon Trotsky leveled in the Moscow trials. Trotsky was the chief defendant in Joseph Stalin's kangaroo courts, in which the central leaders of the Bolshevik Party under V.I. Lenin were framed up and most were executed. Stalin's regime needed the trials to consolidate its counterrevolution against Lenin's revolutionary internationalist course. The aim was to close the minds of workers, farmers, and national liberation fighters to the communist movement led by Trotsky, which was continuing along the road opened by the October 1917 Russian Revolution. In Trotsky's testimony before the Dewey Commission--published by Pathfinder as The Case of Leon Trotsky--he defends this Marxist perspective and rebuts Stalin's lies. Not Guilty contains the commission's findings, which helped unmask the frame-ups. "A seminal treatise depicting philosophical ideals on a landscape dominated by major players.... A meaningful snapshot into a capsule of time."--Jon Bradley, editor, Insights: A publication of The John Dewey Society for the Study of Education and Culture

In 1936-1938, during the period of the Great Purges, in which millions died, there were three "show trials" in Moscow. 1. The first trial was of 16 members of the so-called "Trotskyite-Zinovievite Terrorist Centre," held in August 1936, at which the chief defendants were Grigory Zinoviev and Lev Kamenev, two of the most prominent former party leaders. All were sentenced to death and were promptly executed. 2. The second trial in January 1937 involved 17 lesser figures including Karl Radek, Yuri Piatakov and Grigory Sokolnikov. Thirteen of the defendants were shot immediately. The rest received sentences in labor camps, where they were shot a few years later. 3. The third trial, in March 1938, included 21 defendants alleged to belong to the so-called "Bloc of Rightists and Trotskyites," led by Nikolai Bukharin, former head of the Communist International, former Prime Minister Alexei Rykov, Genrikh Yagoda, Christian Rakovsky and Nikolai Krestinsky. All of the leading defendants were executed. All of the defendants in these "trials" were prominent personalities, including former members of the Politburo and old Bolsheviks whose credentials as revolutionaries could not be questioned. The charges against them were that they had received messages from Trotsky who was in such places as Copenhagen and Mexico City, directing them to overthrow the Government of the Soviet Union and restore Capitalism. Although the charges were inherently ridiculous, a committee of old leftists formed in Mexico City to examine them. They had as their star witness Trotsky himself plus one of his wives and one of his sons who had not been killed yet, plus all of Trotsky's papers. Through these documents, they were able to prove that the charges in the Moscow show trials were false. Trotsky himself was assassinated in Mexico City on August 21, 1940, two years after this Dewey Commission Report had been published.
