What Dominique Pagani says
Dominique Pagani mentions Trotsky mainly through his relationship with Lenin and the episode of the Brest-Litovsk peace. He recalls that Trotsky opposed this peace, that Lenin persuaded him to accept it and had him sign the treaty1. He also repeats Lenin's judgement that Trotsky was too "administrative"2. In 2022, in a session devoted to the war in Ukraine, he comes back to this point: according to Lenin, Trotsky was on a mistaken path, but Lenin never asked for him to be shot3. He also links Trotsky to the question of intellectual inheritance: Trotsky called himself a Leninist, and Dominique Pagani draws from this the idea that everyone takes hold of a body of thought as they see fit4. Finally, he mentions in passing a photograph of Trotsky in Mexico with Frida Kahlo5. The passages are brief and do not deal with Trotsky's writings.
