Amadeo Bordiga (1889-1970) was the founder of the Communist Party of Italy and was one of the leading voices against the Stalinist hegemony of the 20th-century left. Bordiga saw the Soviet Union as "state capitalist" and sought to rebuild a "true" Leninism as the basis for a revolutionary party. The Fundamentals for a Marxist Orientation and other writings on Marxist theory are the essential pieces of Bordiga's writing that demonstrate his strain of Marxism.
