Answer

The Makhnovshchina was a revolutionary movement that sought to establish anarchist communism in Ukraine. It was led by Nestor Makhno, an anarchist who believed that the working class should control the means of production and that the state should be abolished. The Makhnovshchina was defeated by the Red Army in 1921, but its legacy continues to inspire anarchists and other radicals today.
