Permanent Revolution

Permanent Revolution is a political concept primarily associated with Marxist theory, particularly as articulated by Leon Trotsky. It argues that in a globalized world, socialist revolutions cannot succeed in isolation within one country; they need to spread internationally. Trotsky believed that a successful revolution in one nation would inspire and support revolutions elsewhere, preventing the rise of capitalist restoration. Essentially, it emphasizes the idea that revolution is an ongoing process, not a one-time event, and that continual struggle is necessary to achieve and maintain socialist goals amid global capitalism.
