Leon Trotsky, byname of Lev Davidovich Bronshtein, (born November 7 [October 26, Old Style], 1879, Yanovka, Ukraine, Russian Empire—died August 21, 1940, Coyoacán, Mexico) was a communist theorist and agitator, a leader in Russia’s October Revolution in 1917, and later commissar of foreign affairs and of war in the Soviet Union (1917–24). In the power struggle following [[Vladimir Lenin]]’s death, [[Joseph Stalin]] emerged as victor, while Trotsky was removed from all positions of power and later [[exile]]d (1929). He remained the leader of an anti-Stalinist opposition abroad until his assassination by a Stalinist agent.
