About Left Opposition
The Left Opposition was a faction within the Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks) from 1923 to 1927 headed by Leon Trotsky, who formed it to mount a struggle against the perceived bureaucratic degeneration within the party leadership headed by Joseph Stalin. The Left Opposition advocated for a programme of rapid industrialization, voluntary collectivisation of agriculture, and the expansion of a worker's democracy in a wider framework with the New Economic Policy.
