Identify those statements below that are TRUE. (Choose one or more.) Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov (1870-1924), also known as Lenin, wrote Imperialism, the Final Stage of Capitalism (1916). In this brief essay he recognized an element that contradicted Marx's analysis, namely that the workers and socialist parties in the different countries had identified with their respective national interests during the First World War. He took up a thesis propounded by the British economist John Atkinson Hobson (1858-1940) in his essay Imperialism (1902). Hobson saw in colonial developments the quest for outlets for the population and capital that remained unused in the industrialized countries. Lenin combined this thesis with an interpretation of monopoly capitalism fusing the Marxian law of industrial concentration with the theory of integration of financial and industrial capital propounded by Rudolf Hilferding (1877-1941) in his book Das Finanzkapital (1910). As far as the post-revolutionary Soviet Union was concerned, Lenin's writings pointed in the direction of the NEP, the New Economic Policy based on recognition of a certain role to the market, above all for determination of the crucial exchange ratio between agricultural products and manufactures, within a centralized economy characterized by state ownership of the means of production.
