" The controversy surrounding great and famous people during their lifetime can often overshadow and obscure the value of their contribution to society and events.." to what extent does the study of trotsky support this view?

:S:S


please help....

When Stalin was in power, he portrayed to be a counter-revolutionary etc etc and so everyone saw him to be the bad guy. This caused people to forget his vital contributions to the October Revolution of 1917 and his close relationship with Lenin.

However, as time has passed and society has learnt that he was extremeley significant and so his place in history as a great person has been re-established. Thus, trotsky pretty much completely supports that veiew.

Your school/the government pays teachers to help you with this...

Ask them

But yea, you can talk about Trotsky's Russian image being smeared by Stalin's campaigns etc...

His contribution the Russia's civil war as a general and thinker

That sort of thing.
