Extract of Trotsky article//
A landmark of sorts was reached a short while ago when Hugo Chavez became the first head of state to describe himself as a Trotskyist. For a while it seemed as if Trotsky’s memory had been consigned to the dust-bin of history after the fall of the Soviet Union, treasured only by isolated far-left groups cut off from the mainstream of political culture. Maybe the Venezuelan president is anticipating a revival of interest in the man whose influence was once felt everywhere from Vietnam to Merseyside.
