How did lenin adapt marxism to conditions in russia

He called for an elite group to lead the revolution and set up a "dictatorship of the proletariat"

Explanation:

In Western Europe, Most of socialists activists believed that socialism could be achieved through a consistent moderate reforms that help poor people in their country such as setting up minimum wages, increased suffrage, and government funded welfare programs.

Lenin believed that this couldn't be achieved in Russia since government had a very weak influence over business owners,. Because of this, he believed that setting up a dictatorship of the proletariat is the only way Marxism could be achieved.

explanation: we can only guess at how our actions may be perceived in the future. doing something really big like killing lots of people, saving lots of people, affecting the lives of lots of people is a sure fire way of being remembered in historical records. we can also make a difference in the history records by being a small influence on something bigger, whether that is as a civil servant, scientist or artist.

of course you could argue that we all affect history just as tiny cogs in a   bigger machine.

if you mean how do people influence our opinions of things which have already happened, then simply by writing a book which looks at things form a different perspective and trying to convince people that this perspective is more accurate or truthful. people do it all the time i.e. richard the third was a terrible or was he? plenty would disagree, it's just that their views aren't the most widely known.n:
