This article reconstructs Hannah Arendt and Ruy Fausto's analysis of the origins of left-wing totalitarianism in order to show that, although Fausto intends to fill a gap left by Arendt, the path he follows in tracing the genesis of Soviet totalitarianism is the same followed by her in the 1950’s and 1960’s and goes from Stalinism to Leninism, to Bolshevism to Jacobinism, without neglecting the important legacy of Marx and also the less evident legacy of the modern philosophies of progress.
