There Will Be One World, One Flag, One Humanity, And One Ideology. Being Carried Away By The Charisma Of Lenin And Stalin, The Down¬Trodden Conquered About One-Third Of The World To Be Governed From Moscow.

But Very Soon The Hammer Fell On The Head Of Trotsky And Soon The Teeth Of The Sickle Got Rusted And Lastly The Star Fell To The Ground Like A Burnt Up Meteor. Why Did The People Get Attracted To Communism? How Did Communism Temporarily Succeed In Con¬Quering A Part Of The World? What Did The People Get From Communism? Why One Communism Broke Up Into Many Com¬Munisms ? Why Did Communism Fall? And, Lastly, What Political Garb The World May Wear In The Near Future?These Are The Questions The Author Tries To Answer Here.
