Was Lenin influenced by Nechayev?
I don’t think so, but he was influenced by the same wing of the general non-Marxist anti-Tsarist revolutionary movement, i.e. those who favoured anti-Tsarist revolutionaries organising as an elite and highly-disciplined vanguard of professional revolutionaries. This is pointed out at the end of this review from the July 1970 Socialist Standard of Lenin’s notorious un-Marxist work What Is To Be Done?That reminds me: 80 or so articles from the 1970s have now been added to the Archives section on this site.
