Re: Why Are Only a Few Countries Required To Be Multicultural
The analysis in my family's circle of friends was that Russia was too politically and technologically backwards to be able to sustain a revolution. They did not have the infrastructure needed to keep Stalin in check. I agree that it's hard to go from being an uneducated serf in a monarchy to an educated worker in some sort of consensus driven society.
The same could be said for China and the Maoist revolution.
I suppose when the economy all goes to shit, we'll find out more.
